If the product is really good then it will fail miserably. If the product is crap, it will be a huge success. This is the way it works with the food industry in Decatur. Examples are Sweetie Pies, Casa Torres, Chili's, Yesterday's, Catfish O'harlies, Sean's and Allsups burritos!

I think it will do fine. They are all over the place and always have a line or lots of people on site.

My family is excited! We cannot wait to not have to drive to Denton for yogurt!

Interesting perspective.

So now we have liberal food?? Being smart and healthy makes it liberal? On second thought, I guess you're right. Conservative food is deep fried and full of fat and calories, check out the conservatives at Wal-mart.

If they sell crab killing products, they'll make a fortune being across from the courthouse.

If it's anything like TCBY then, yes.
If they sell it by the carton, maybe I will be able to finally break my BlueBell habit - which is getting as costly as any drug

No way people will eat there. The wal mart Republicans wont allow it, besides there is no place to park.

People are already everywhere on the square with all he new eateries. Why people think they can't park and walk a few feet blows my mind. Lazy society

Not a chance. New owners would be better off saving their money.

Barbara B, what are you talking about, I see no comments about "liberal food"! I get my fruits and veggies from my garden suplemented with membership in an organic co-op. My meat comes from my own grass fed beef, free range chickens and eggs(neighbor), wild caught fish, and the 4-5 deer, dozen or so pheasant, 2 turkeys, and countless dove I bag each year. This is all budget friendly and sustainable, tenets both parties should adopt....but I will say those cretins in line for welfare checks do not spend their food dollars any more wisely than the "conservatives at Wal-Mart". By the way, you need to go to Wal-Mart in South Oak Cliff or Lake Worth before you pass judgement on conservatives eating habits...at least they are using their own hard earned money to buy shitty food. We pay the welfare folks to eat shit, then pay for their healthcare. Hell, get in line behind the Lone Star Card crowd at the Wal-Mart in Decatur....I doubt they are conservative (other than the fact they believe in Jesus, dissaprove of gay marriage, abortions, and birth control). They vote with their pocketbook so to speak, not their heart.

The Decatur Wal Mart is the RNC! The people pay with WIC cards, are white, and have more tattoos than the the el diablo biker gang.

I love how people like to act like this is stil the Decatur Square of 1885. It is not. You can get fashionable clothing and modern day food in 2012, and EVEN paved roads on the square. Do you have to walk sometimes after you park? Yes. Do you still ride your horse and hitch it to a post? No. Get a life, people.

11:39, I know a guy who rode his horse to the courthouse a few years ago. Lost his license with a DWI, and rode his horse to the court date.

I'm thinking you people need to get out a little more often. How awesome would it be to grab a frozen treat and walk around our beautiful square and enjoy what life has to offer.

Mmmm...Fuzzy Yogurt!

What does Walmart have to do w a cUp of yogurt? Even the poor can enjoy a 3 -6 dollar cup of happiness! Y'all need to chill-lax

Remote Controller said...

Don't know, the yogurt shops in Denton have an "OK" following but seem to stay in business. But they are always pretty empty.

The ice cream shops, however, are always packed. I am surprised they didn't try that instead.

How many of you actually know what frozen yogurt is? Helloooooo

Yum Yum said...

YES FINALLY!!! If it is like the one in Southlake, then I will support it. Those places must have low overhead because it only takes 1 employee to run it or max 2. Customers fill up the cup of frozen yogurt themselves and put on the toppings. Simply weigh it and collect the money. Easy and hassle free.

In Fredericksburg one can walk around a shop while sipping on a glass of wine! Yogurt is a start, I guess.

Anonymous said...

By the time you walk there from finding a parking place, the yogurt will have melted.

There are plenty of places to park a block away, but you will fall in a pothole and spill yogurt on your slacks, and it will look like one of the stray dogs that are everywhere, has dry humped your leg. I will just take my hoveround to the wal mart snack bar and pay with my wic card.

Anonymous said...

I do! It's a little cup of yummy with almost any topping you could desire !

OMG! WHO THE F WEARS RED AFTER LABOR DAY????!!!! AND ON THE SQUARE AT THAT!!!!!

If it was a coors outlet, maybe.....rednecks and yogurt dont mix.

CONDOM SHOPPE, THAT'S WHAT WE NEED.

12:24, you can find the same same thing by the lamp post at eighter from decatur courts, usually after midnight.

11:50, My guess would be it is yogurt that is frozen. I know that may be a wild and crazy off the wall guess, but seems likely.

Triple Fake... said...

12:34 -
I'm wondering which of the comments @ 12:24 you are referring to.

How much does "a little cup of yummy" go for nowadays anyway? I can't decide if I would like to get a large cup of yummy, or maybe get two medium cups of different flavors of yummy

I've been buying TCBY at Decatur Walmart so yes, I'll be at the new shop as often as possible!

I'm holding my breath, but there seems to be a new paradigm on the square. Reunion, Fuzzy's with their full bar,dozen flat screens and patio, Sweetie Pie's......Now you can actually go to the square, have a meal and walk on over to another spot for a drink and watch a game. Anybody that has been to Mckinney lately will tell you that you don't have front row parking to attract people. Decent food, entertainment and a little ambiance go a long way to bringing people together. Not everyone is looking for a short waddle to a chicken fried steak with a glass of gravy.

In your attempt to be sarcastic and funny, you failed miserably. Do you even know what an EDC does? No, I didn't think so.

You guys realize this is not the first frozen yogurt on the square in Decatur right? Back in the late 80's Mattie's had a frozen yogurt parlor and handmade their own waffle cones.

Stop bitching about the parking! Park a mere half block away and waddle your gelatinous white ass to the restaurant of your choice...

Anonymous said...

2:38, maybe they should let medical marijuana business in so you could relax.

Buford T. Justice said...

First the Mexicans invade with their food at Fuzzy's or whatever that place is, now we got us some fake ice cream some liberal yahoo invented... remind to slap yo momma!

2:38, What the fudge do any of my comments have to do with an EDC. I like how you just said "no, didn't think so", hah...what crock of loony leftist handbook tactics you are sweet thing. You just hate being educated on the fact that dumb, poor people from both sides of the political aisle eat shitty food and make piss poor decisions. A chicken fried steak is no worse than a big ol' pot of neckbones. By the way, I wasn't being sarcastic, just telling you straight up how I live my life.

Hey, what EDC's do is great, I'm all for it. We need to educate those who's parents don't have the means or education to pass good habits on to their children, so we do not pay for it in healthcare dollars down the road. I'm in!

Decatur is more of a Golden Corral kinda town!

If our courthouse employees would use the employee parking lot then there would be more parking for visitors. ESPECIALLY our elected officials - they need to set a good example. But they don't want to get their fancy suits sweaty so they park on the square.

I think the city should put in parking meters and collect a few bucks. I do not think the WIC/Lone Star Card folks would show up. That way only the desirable folks will be on the square and nobody would have to see the big butts waddling from spot to spot.

Desirable folks on square = yea right...it's Wise County.

2:31, I took my Girls to Reunion on saturday after the "Car Show". Horrible. Horrible Service,Horrible Food, Hot, Horrible attitude. The "Hostess" acted pissed because she had to seat us and then proceeded to roll her eyes at customers who had come in with a child and made a mess under their table. Wont be back. EVER...

Fuzzys taco has ruined the square. Now all the truck drivers from the Rhome Loves are trying to drive their big rigs downtown because they think its a titty bar!

11:25 - Chill!
Maybe you need some frozen yogurt right now.... Or a shot of tequila.... You are wound tight.

We tried numerous time to support Reunion on Square. Building nicely-done, food good enough, but service getting the food to table in a timely manner- horrible every time. AND every single person that goes there has the same complaint. Too bad, but the other side of the square has good options.

Sure the yogurt shop will make it......
