"We decided to use premium all-natural vanilla from the country of Madagascar because it is the purest, richest and most flavorful variety of vanilla in the world," said Dan Kim, founder of Red Mango. "Many frozen desserts are made with vanilla that is often mixed with artificial flavors. Red Mango's Madagascar Vanilla is real and all-natural, and offers the true flavor of pure premium vanilla."

Madagascar is the largest producer of fine vanilla in the world. Its rich and complex flavor is often imitated by producers of artificial vanilla, but never duplicated. The distinct taste and aroma of this variety can only be appreciated in its natural essence. Combined with the all-natural deliciousness of Red Mango's propriety frozen yogurt, Red Mango's Madagascar Vanilla frozen yogurt adds a vibrant flavor of bold originality, which will not be confused with your average vanilla. Each serving is around 100 calories and pairs perfectly with any of Red Mango's healthy selection of toppings.

Like Red Mango's other frozen yogurt flavors, Madagascar Vanilla is 100 percent all-natural, nonfat and contains no preservatives or artificial ingredients. Because Red Mango frozen yogurt is real yogurt, it offers a pure, irresistibly delicious and refreshingly tangy yogurt flavor, as well as important nutrients such as calcium and protein. Red Mango's yogurts also contain GanedenBC30® (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086), a patented type of probiotic, exclusive to Red Mango, that has been shown to support a healthy immune and digestive system when consumed as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

Madagascar Vanilla joins Red Mango's current selection of frozen yogurt flavors, including Original, Pomegranate by POM Wonderful®, and Tangomonium™, each around 100 calories per serving. As part of its Rethink Lunch™ initiative, Red Mango also recently introduced lunch-worthy meal options that include all-natural, made-to-order fresh fruit parfaits and fresh fruit smoothies, as well as the world's first probiotic iced teas made with whole tea leaves.
