The good news is that this is crazy low fat and tastes like junior mints.
The bad news is that it also has that Stuff'd funk that I truly dislike.
. . .
The best news is that I can totally pawn this one off on my daughter who's really enjoying it
Turkey Hill Stuff'd Junior Mints Frozen Dairy Dessert
Creamy mint frozen dairy dessert stuffed with rich fudge and Junior Mints minis
Bright white faux ice cream
with a non-evident fudgy swirl (more underneath)
and a decent amount of mini Junior Mints

So I've taken a first and second scoop at this thing and I don't really like it. I will admit that if you aim for just the mints and keep the ice cream to a minimum then this really does taste like the candy, at least for the first few bites, but then I started getting more of the base and that Stuff'd funk was back in action.
At this point, I give up on Stuff'd. The lack of calories just doesn't justify the weirdness. There's jut something not write about it. It's not the candy bits, and it's not the swirl, it's the base. Sure, it doesn't bother everybody, I know I tend to be picky, but I'm not buying any more of these. There are too many cool new products out to keep wasting my time on this stuff/
On Third Scoop: Ok, good news! If you crush a good amount of Oreos into this stuff, the funk is covered up and it's not too bad, if not eye-opening minty... that's not to be confused with high end tingly minty, no, this is a straight forward, overpowering minty. This was my first full bowl and I'm pretty sure my entire esophagus is now minty fresh... I'm going to be tasting this in the morning, aren't I?
Verdict? Very Minty, Crazy low fat, Stuff'd funk
Buy Again? Nope

Just saw this for the first time this past weekend and was curious about it. After reading this, I'm so glad that I didn't buy it and I won't be buying it for sure now. Once again, you've saved me money!
that's what I'm here for!
what is the stuffd funk? Is it a texture or taste thing? If you have to crush oreos to add to your light ice cream, you might as well just go with the premium stuff haha.
Iunno, there is a weirdness about it. It's probably a flavor/texture combo that just doesn't sit right with me.
Hahahaha, let's see, a 1/2 cup serving plus two whole foods oreos means 14% fat & 17% sat fat total, still not too bad :)
I've come to the conclusion that mint only works for me when dark chocolate is involved. Maybe if these were dark chocolate junior mints it would've worked better.
only if there are enough to cover over the base!
I've yet to try the stuffd variety but I recently came across a random grocery store that carries a few of the pint varieties so I'l have to give them a try to see if I get the same funk.
Once again you have spared me from wasting my money and calories! Quite a public service you are providing for us Dubba and we are grateful!
So I found this one at the store last night and decided to give it a try. I HAVE to try each new flavor for myself, it's an obsession! Right off I did notice the vanilla was def frozen dairy dessert but the fudge swirl was decent and I liked the chewiness of the mini mints. (But I did toss a choc choc chip muffin in the cup). However after a few scoops it does become too much (good for me because I lack serious self control) and I did feel as if I may never need to use Scope again I was so minty fresh..haha! Wouldn't buy it again but worth a shot!
Tastes like toothpaste yuck. Never again!
