Yogurt’s Flavours
The “Bad Taste” and “Mojo” Issues
We are pleased to present you Bad Taste Flavour and Mojo Flavour, both published in the Yogurt’s Flavours magazine series. Yogurt’s Flavours take a cynical look at our society and deliberately provoke. As you flip through the magazines, you come across unexpected, sometimes absurd scenes that keep you enthralled but also inspire.
Yogurt’s Flavours are biannual publications curated and published by Yogurt Magazine based in Rome. For future issues, they are regularly open for submissions.
Extract from Bad Taste editorial: […] Bad Taste flavour is a metalinguistic provocation. This issue aims at being an overture of aesthetic spites, a celebration of kitsch and the grotesque. It aims at putting a cynical focus on the sleaziness, bad habits, excesses and disturbing anomalies of a hypertrophic, nauseated and, at times, nauseating society.
In mapping the bad taste, it tries not to impose any ethical filter to the submitted works, all the more reason in such a hypercritical contemporary context, where the application of mass morals, often arbitrary, reminds more of a guillotine in a town square rather than the do-gooding and moderate reprimand of a “good family man”. Through this Yogurt flavour, we hope to carry out an exorcism, where the aesthetics of bad taste, in its sophistication, become more acceptable or, why not, necessary. […]

Extract from Mojo editorial: […] What is Mojo? Is it “Malombra?” “Malasuerte?” Is it a hateful gaze? Or the invisible spying on you? Is it that shiver down your spine in an empty room? The fear? The night? A sorcery spell that bewitches everything around? Mojo is an amulet. It defends us from all this.
In its next flavour, Yogurt aims to explore this kind of suggestions. Therefore, the theme of the new call is the shadow, the magic, the unknown, the unexpected, the misfortune, our deepest fears, but also everything that haunts and disturbs us in our everyday life. Mojo evokes obscurity and traps it in its pages to protect us from what we fear. […]
