The yoghourt episode in 1978 was created from almost nowhere by Ray Keene in the middle of a bad tempered world championship match. Keene was well known on the English circuit at that time for his sense of humour. Sadly, Karpov's helpers didn't seem to get the joke.
I think the 2 delegations finally compromised by having the Russians delegation offer to Karpov a predefined selection of 3 types of yoghourt at a predefined time in each match.
Hmm maybe they did get the joke. :-o
