Why is everything strawberry flavored??

I am one of the few folks out here who does not like strawberries. It seems everything is firts and foremost strawberry flavored. The last straw (no pun intended here) was when I looked for yogurt at Costco and it came only in strawberry. Ugh. Am I the only one who does not like strawberries? Please let me know.
 
I love strawberries (and raspberries, and cherries, and all those red fruits!), but I can imagine how annoying it is to not have much choice. Seems like there are three basic flavors that things come in: chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. Obviously, marketing folks have discovered that these three flavors sell best, so to heck with folks who don't like them!

I'm surprised there weren't some other flavors of yogurt. No peach? No vanilla (which you could add your own fruit to)? How about some plain yogurt, then add a dolop of natural fruit preserves? Probably would be lower in sugar than the flavored stuff.
 
i love strawberries but wouldn't buy something b/c i want a variety of options,especially for my yogurts.

Well, they had peach too but that is one step above strawberries for me. I love cherry though. And yet not enough people love cherries. Oh well....
 
I LOVE strawberries and every other kind of berry! I am so excited because I live smack dab in the middle of strawberry land and I noticed a sign posted at my favorite roadside stand the other day that said they would be opening for business on Feb 16!! Whoo hoo!!! I love to mix fresh strawberried in my plain yogurt.

And the opening of the strawberry stands means that other spring and summber vegetables are right around the corner. I can hardly wait for those luscious tomatoes, corn on the cob, lemon cucumbers, arugula and other salad greens!!!
 
Elaine, I am with you! I miss all the freshest produce that the summer brings! I am practically salivatating right now just thinking about frest berries and cucumbers, and TOMATOES!!!

I don't like strawberries flavored stuff as much as I like the actual berry, and I tend to stay away from the flavored stuff because it just isn't as good as the real thing! :)

I love strawberries, but cannot stand things like strawberry ice cream or strawberry shakes. How weird is that.?

I have a friend who cannot stand the sight or smell of strawberries.
