It's the new Android operating system, 2.2.
A quick google search for Froyo leads us to the first link:
What Is Froyo?

TOO late! You already did it to yourself.
But if it makes you feel any better, when I got my first android phone and started reading "Cupcakes, Donuts, Eclair, and Froyo" I was wondering what was up with the Android community and food....

Gotta do an "advanced search". Click on search > advanced search, then type in froyo for a keyword and select "titles only" from the menu underneath it. That will search for Froyo in the titles of threads instead of just finding all threads with the word froyo somewhere in it at some point. Much easier way to find stuff on here. Lot's of info too.

Curse Google for having such deliciously named codewords for their OS versions.

I just wanted to take a moment to say that the responses in this thread are one of the biggest reasons why I love these forums so much.
There are many forums where the answers would have been downright nasty. Thanks to the users and the admins for making this such a friendly and helpful place to discuss all things Android.

Most everyone says "froyo", but isn't it actually "frozen yogurt"?

Yes. Well, actually no.. Well sort of.
Google calls it "Froyo", but has stated that "Froyo" is short for frozen yogurt. In other words, "Froyo" is its official codename.

Unless you are talking about the whole tread.
If you are talking to me, I meant that my own post was off topic (didn't really have anything to do with froyo, just an expression of gratitude for this place being so nice).
I'll edit to make that more clear.
