I was excited that 16 Handles was opening near us since I like the pay-by-weight concept for frozen yogurt. We first saw that at Yogurtland (wonder if it’s still 39 cents per ounce there) and the advantage is being able to get a small amount if you want to and/or mix as many flavors/toppings you want for 46 cents per ounce at 16 Handles.

I stopped in today, in sweltering hot weather, perfect for sampling frozen yogurts, and left a little less than satisfied. The Plain Yogurt flavor was powdery. Cookies and Cream and Cheesecake were very artificial tasting. Green Tea was heavily tea flavored but in an off-putting way. The Coffee was very watery. The banana was the only acceptable yogurt flavor to me and my favorite was mango, a non-dairy and therefore not frozen yogurt option (more like sorbet) so it doesn’t count towards points here. You don’t have to take my word for it though since you can sample every flavor for free before purchasing, but you won’t see me there.
