[/floatl]Golden Spoon, the California-based frozen yoghurt company, will open its first Japanese outlet at the end of the month opposite Tokyo Midtown in Roppongi. Golden Spoon has 90 sites in the US and the entry to Japan also represents the first overseas expansion for the company. The marketing team chose Roppongi because of its "upscale image" and large foreign population but they also plan to open further stores this year in heavy traffic areas like Tokyo Station. If their concept takes off, they will set up franchising agreements with a target of 100 outlets nationwide in five years. Golden Spoon follow on the heels of other US retailers like Cold Stone Creamery and Krispy Kreme who have made inroads in Japan

Shopkeeper: The frogurt is also cursed.
Homer Simpson: That's bad!
Shopkeeper: But it comes with a free choice of toppings!
Homer Simpson: That's good!
Shopkeeper: The toppings contain sodium benzoate.
[Homer looks puzzled.]
Shopkeeper: That's bad.
Homer Simpson: Can I go now?

Mr Kobayashi: First, I experienced a sort of overpowering feeling whenever I was in the room with foreigners, not to mention a powerful body odor coming from them. I don't know whether it was a sweat from the heat or a cold sweat, but I remember I was sweating whenever they were around.

Great stuff, can`t wait until it comes to Japan, frozen yogurt tastes so much better than Ice cream! Had it, tastes great, 'bout time Japan brings in something that I think the population will wholeheartedly embrace.

I'm hoping this will light the way to a whole new understanding of yogurt.
I'm sick of the overly sweet watery excuse you usually find here.
