11 February - National Frozen Yogurt Day in USA
The origins of yogurt are unknown, but it was probably invented by Neolithic people in Central Asia and Mesopotamia around 5000 BC, when the first milk-producing animals were domesticated.
Frozen yogurt is fairly new to the world of sweets. It was introduced in the 1970s under the name Frogurt, and in the 1980s sales skyrocketed. The word yogurt, however, dates back to 1625. It is a mispronunciation of the Turkish word yogurt, in which the G is pronounced with a soft sound, as in general or gym.
While yogurt has been a popular food for millennia, it wouldn't undergo a major evolution until the 20th century. Ingenious entrepreneur H.P. Hood introduced frozen yogurt in the 1970s. Known as “frogurt,” this was served as a soft-serve dessert, and it had a very similar taste to ice cream.
