February 6 is Frozen Yogurt Day! H.P. Hood first developed frozen yogurt in 1970 as a soft-serve treat called Frogurt. Soon other companies followed with their own products, including Humphrey’s and Dannon. Because it was considered a “health food,” at least compared to ice cream, frozen yogurt’s popularity grew in the 80s. Today, you can buy myriad varieties of frozen yogurt at your local grocery store.
