Junk Food Guy Seeking: Limited Edition Turkey Hill Baklava Greek Frozen Yogurt & I Never Stick Around for Postgame
Junk Food Nation, I have one word you: UGH. I am tired. Tired tired tired. After the 30+ minute delay in last night’s Super Bowl, it felt like an overtime game and by the end I was loaded with alcohol, sodium, grease and an overwhelming sense of defeat. In other words, a great night!
Once the game ended, I clicked off the TV immediately. Not because I was upset the Ravens won/Niners lost – I was really not invested in that. No, I just never have ANY interest in watching postgame. To me, if there’s anything more annoying that pregame schtick and coverage, it’s postgame schtick and coverage.
I will admit that obviously if its YOUR team, you want, nay, HAVE to stick around for postgame. If it was the Buffalo Bills winning the Super Bowl, then yes – I’d be all in until the wee hours of the morning. And you do this because it’s like the cigarette after sex or the cooldown of a workout – you need something to wind down that adrenaline.
But if I’m just neutral about the teams, what do I care what the coaches and players say? I realize this might be blasphemy since I claim to be a HUGE sports fan, but I DON’T stay for the credits after a movie is over, I DON’T stay at the end of a play to be the last one leaving the theater, and as soon as my TV show is over, I click to the next thing RIGHT AWAY. Maybe I have a short attention span. But to watch another four hours of postgame analysis and coverage after already watching six hours of insanity? And to hear Super Bowl predictions for NEXT YEAR? Trip me down a flight of steps, PLEASE.
Today’s junk food is one I’ve seen ads for but haven’t seen anywhere: Limited Edition Turkey Hill Baklava Greek Frozen Yogurt!
Limited Edition Turkey Hill Baklava Greek Frozen Yogurt
C’mon Turkey Hill. Send me some of this! My sister texted me a picture of it she found on Pinterest, I’ve been seeing ads online and in publications, and now all I want is that sweet sweet flavor. Junk Food Gal once asked me what Baklava was. I explained it was basically layer upon layer of filo dough soaked in honey. Plus there’s some nuts in there.
And now the good people at TH have made a frozen yogurt out of it? Vanilla GREEK frozen yogurt with crunchy baklava pieces and a honey cinnamon swirl?? You’ve got to be kidding me. In my belly. Now, please.
Has anyone seen this? Tell me where below – seriously. I need.
Thoughts? Please comment below or hit me up on Twitter @junkfoodguy or LIKE my Facebook Page and message me there. Also, you can always email me at junkfoodguy@junkfoodguy.com. Let’s hang.
Sincerely,
Junk Food Guy

But not watching the post-game means you didn’t find out whether Ray Lewis ascended to Heaven.
@Kahnfucius: Or if he got that paint off his face
On the Ray Lewis and god thing, my Soc teacher put it best today “I sent Ray Lewis an email to see if he’d come with me to the children’s hospital so he can explain to them why god is with him and not them.” I wanted to laugh so hard in class.
As for the frozen greek yogurt, I’ve been very interested in finding this one but no luck. TH seems to be the first mainstream brand to make frozen greek yogurt so I want to see how it is compares to the more premium versions.
@Nick: YIKES re Ray Lewis. LOL.
I have some in my freezer. I have been eating it little by little. It’s pretty good for frozen yogurt, I just like real ice cream so much better. I was a little worried about the honey in it because I haven’t been a huge fan of honey in the past. The honey flavor wasn’t to strong so I liked it. There is a decent amount of baklava pieces in it too. It gives it a nice crunch.
@Will: WHere’d you find it?
Shoprite
@Will: Grrr…no shop rite around here
Ya shoprite has a great selection of Turkey hill products. Stop & Shop use to have them but stopped for some reason.
That stuff is great. Not sure where you’re at but I’ve found it at Wegmans in VA.
@KElly: WEGMANS. got it – it’s on my list!
But then you miss my favorite part of post-Super Bowl coverage – the Vince Lombardi trophy being carried between two row of players as EVERYONE touches, caresses, manhandles it while the camera stays focused on the awkward guy holding it. I’m sure he’s thinking, “Just touch the trophy, not me. Just touch the trophy, not me…”
@Teresapalooza: HEEE….that awkward guy who marches it up is funny. It’s only been a recent thing that they have the camera on that guy from tunnel to stage. So Awkward
