red mango = crack. both bad for your wallet.

if youre ever in the palo alto area, you should hit up red mango. its an frozen yogurt place. but not just any frozen yogurt place. its a frozen yogurt place that has yogurt so delicious that after eating my first cup, i immediately got back into the long-ass line to get a second cup.

yes. it was so delicious that i ate two (and i usually have such good self control). not only did i get two, but my buddy who had just eaten a medium sized cup (pictured below is the small size) also immediately got in line with me to get seconds as well. the cashier thought we were nuts.

i ate both of these.

second thought, you should probably stay away, this place will probably rob you of all your moneys and ruin any summertime sexyback diet/workout routine youre currently on.

on an interesting side note, this particular franchise is owned by yul kwon of survivor fame. you can see him in the back of the store checking inventory and chopping fruit. pretty awesome.
