Last Thursday, frozen yogurt chain Red Mango announced that it would be partnering with pomegranate juice pioneer, POM Wonderful, to debut its first new flavor, Pomegranate by POM Wonderful.
But someone else had the same idea: Red Mango's biggest rival, cult favorite Pinkberry. New York magazine's food blog first reported that the rival chain's pomegranate flavor is slated to hit stores Nov. 21, one week after Red Mango's, and a Pinkberry rep confirmed with us the release of the new flavor.
This pomegranate battle isn't the first time that Pinkberry and Red Mango have gone head to head, and it certainly won't be the last. While the two chains may not be thrilled with the news, I'll be excited to conduct a taste-off. Will you do the same?

Hehe. I tried Red Mango, and I didn't like it at all. It tastes more like ice cream opposed to the more frozen yogurt taste of Pinkberry. I guess it depends on what type of flavor you're looking for. I'm not crazy for pomegranate, but I'd be willing to give it a try (at Pinkberry).
never tried red mango, but i tried pinkberry once and didnt like it one bit. i dont understand the fuss over it.
