“The cover highlights the macho mythology of hedge fund managers, whose returns over the

Taste Test: The Portable Yogurt That Isn't



Go-Gurt's charmingly daft, hilariously unappetizing name implies its creation myth: the notion that, out there in the world, there were consumers who liked feeding their kids delicious, nutritious yogurt, but were frustrated by its cripplingly immobile nature—"I need a portable, on-the-go yogurt!" they groused, bashing their cutlery drawers to splinters. "Every time my kid tries to eat this crap, he crashes his bike into a volcano!"—and the visionaries at Yoplait heard their desperate cries and came up with this revolutionary solution to the problem of stationary, two-handed eating. Yogurt in a tubular plastic bag. Yogurt that you squeeze into your open mouth without being forced to abandon your hang-glider mid-flight. Go-Gurt! The yogurt that goes with you!

Of course, even a half-second of thought reveals both the creation myth and the name itself to be a load of horseshit, for the very simple and rather embarrassingly obvious reason that you can't eat Go-Gurt with one hand—and not only because of the impulse, when eating Go-Gurt, to shield your face from public view.
