When the wives of two firefighters decided to bring back a craze from the '80s, they knew they wanted it to be something fun that didn't involve crimped hair, shoulder pads, or zombie Reagan. So the two women and their families got together and opened MYO Pure Frozen Yogurt, which, unlike the original fro-yo shops of the '80s, welcomes patrons to construct their own yogurt creations with self-serve machines and a variety of fruit and candy toppings.

After selecting their favorite flavors—including sweet coconut, Greek plain, and red velvet cake—patrons pour the yogurt, which contains beneficial cultures, into cups. They then add their choice of more than 70 toppings, such as almonds, gummy candies, and white chocolate sauce. Each store offers at least eight yogurt flavors at a time, including a no-sugar-added flavor and a dairy-free variety.
