It was a great alternative to a higher full fat ice cream. Loved the chocolate enrobed waffle cone pieces. I would have liked the waffle pieces slightly larger to get more of the waffle cone flavor, however the crunch and slight bitterness from the dark chocolate was great. Will definitely buy again.

I personally love Turkey Hill's all natural line up as it's all natural and not too high in fat. If I need to spice it up, I can mix it with cookies or a higher fat content ice cream.Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-6255272436049794532021-02-08T21:35:41.958-05:002021-02-08T21:35:41.958-05:00Maybe you can help me find the perfect ice cream. ...Maybe you can help me find the perfect ice cream.

Non GMO, no artificial sweeteners, and 6 grams of fat per serving!? <br />Halo was big in my area last year. I remember trying 2 different flavors and also remember it was one of the few times that I discarded food, I thought it was terrible.

I'm fine if people want to categorize it as a treat or sometimes food, but it's not inherently bad for you. Like with all things, it should be consumed in a way that is in balance with with you regular routine.<br /><br />Good luck with however things go!Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-12743040607993390212020-03-03T10:53:47.697-05:002020-03-03T10:53:47.697-05:00You are too kind, Dubba.

There are so many companies that are trying to pass their products off as "healthy" because of the added protein, but I fear I would buy into this claim and fool myself into thinking I can get away with indulging in a whole pint. Growing up, ice cream became a "bad" food and I was told I was eating too much of it. I developed an unhealthy relationship with it and now I have found myself abstaining from it for years while secretly envying everyone else who can seemingly enjoy every delectable concoction guilt-free. Yes, I know more "head problem" than an ice cream blogger like you could ever solve, but I appreciate your free offer of suggestions. One of these days, maybe I will be so daring as to dig into a "real" ice cream with the maximum amount of mix-ins. ~Anonymous (1)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-53358210975947106942020-03-02T07:23:50.679-05:002020-03-02T07:23:50.679-05:00I'm happy to answer that question and point yo...I'm happy to answer that question and point you in the right direction, but I need to know what you are looking for first.

There are all of the sugar-alcohol-based protein ice creams, the coconut/avocado/banana-based frozen desserts, B&J's lighter versions plus their new non-dairy almond-/cashew varieties, and all of the frozen desserts vs. light ice creams that the Edy's, Dreyer's, and grocery store/Target brands make...God knows what else I am missing. My mind is blown away. I don't know other than to pick blindly. Maybe scrap it all and go with custard or gelato at a local scoop shop where I can try to not think of the ingredients. When did ice cream become such a hard-core science?...Thanks for the review. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
