FOOD REVIEW- Alpro 'go on' mango yogurt


At first sight it seems as though this is just a normal yogurt that has just been mango flavoured but it actually has a hidden bottom layer which I thought was pretty cool as a nice bit of texture with some mango chunks and the different moisture level in the purée, this contrasts very well with the thick and creamy soya plain yoghurt. 

The layers don't actually  mix very well together so you get a little bit of plain yogurt and mango in each mouthful instead of a mango flavoured yogurt which could either be a good or bad thing depending on what you're going for. I liked it and would probably recommend a different yogurt if you prefer the latter. 


I found my yogurt by pure luck, just in the fridge section among other yogurts, it wasn't in a 'free from' or 'vegan' section or anything like that so make sure you're keeping an eye out for them but as for where you can buy them they're pretty acceseble, I've seen them at tescos, Morrison, etc and they'll most likely be everywhere on the internet too. 
The price at tesco is £0.85 (the same price as skyr) so if you're going to buy a yogurt anyway.. Why not make it vegan!

The initial yoghurt is actually fairly dense in comparison to most yogurts and actually quite tangy or sour, due to its very natural and low sweetener recipe. 
It's also pretty high in plant proteins while still being low fat and sat fat. Although do read the label as  the biggest initial calorie box is only for 100g
