Review of Rachel's Wickedly Delicious "Calm Plum Honey Lavender" Yogurt

I'd always seen Rachel's Wickedly Delicious yogurts in the dairy section at my local grocery store. I would wonder how they tasted but I'd never bought any because they were much more unique than your average yogurt flavors. And I just didn't' know if I liked my yogurt wicked. But I recently tried the Rachel's Pomegranate Acai flavor and loved it, so I decided to try more flavors.

I recently went grocery shopping and saw the Rachel's Wickedly Delicious Yogurt in the Calm Plum Honey Lavender flavor. This flavor scared me the most because I don't really like honey all that much and I had no clue if I'd like the taste of lavender, but I decided to take a chance and trust that it would be, in fact, wickedly delicious.

A 6oz container of Rachel's Wickedly Delicious costs $1 and contains all natural ingredients including Grade A pasteurized nonfat milk, evaporated cane juice, cream, plums, honey, natural lavender flavor, natural flavors, pectin, agar, vegetable juice, DHA algal oil, and live and active cultures.

It contains 150 calories, 25 fat calories, 2.5g of total fat and 1.5g of saturated fat. The yogurt also contains 10mg of cholesterol, 130mg of sodium, 25g of total carbohydrates, 1g of fiber, 23g of sugars, and 8g of protein.

I ate it the next afternoon hesitantly, because I wasn't sure if I'd like it. I opened the lid, looked at a pale pink yogurt and ate a spoonful. The flavors weren't all that exotic to me surprisingly.

Plums are sweet but the skins of them are quite tangy and the yogurt was really sweet but there was a lot of tanginess there as well. Even though the plums were the most predominant flavor, lending the tartness to this yogurt, it didn't taste like plums to me.

In fact, if I'd have eaten this yogurt blindfolded I would have thought it was strawberry flavored because it tasted sweet and tangy like strawberry banana flavored yogurt only without the banana flavor.

The honey flavor did stand out as soon as the tanginess faded, and gave it a sweet but sexy champagne like flavor to it that I liked. I honestly don't know if the lavender was noticeable in this yogurt because I've never had lavender in my food before. All I know is that I liked all of the flavors so the lavender either wasn't very apparent or I unknowingly like how lavender tastes.

I really enjoyed this yogurt even though the flavors were calmer and less wicked than the Rachel's Pomegranate Açai flavor I'd bought earlier.

I don't know if it was necessarily calming, but I can say that before I ate this yogurt I was a little bit frazzled and stressed out, but an hour or so after eating the Rachel's Wickedly Delicious Calm Plum Honey Lavender I did feel a lot more relaxed and mellow, so perhaps it did work.

In The End

I was expecting a really exotic and strange tasting yogurt but Rachel's Calm Plum Honey Lavender Yogurt had a pleasant and familiar taste. I enjoyed it and thought it tasted like strawberry yogurt with a honey flavored twist. I didn't think it was as exciting as the Rachel's Pomegranate Acai flavor so I wouldn't call the Plum Honey Lavender Wickedly Delicious, I'd call it sweetly delicious. It would make for a pleasant breakfast. 4 out of 5 stars.
