Halo Top ice cream

Goodie2shoes — Fri, 22 Jan 2021 22:44:21 GMT

Has anyone tried this lite ice cream ? I'm hooked, it is so good, the chocolate has 100 cal per 2/3 cup 300 cal per pint. There are several flavors, I just bought the chocolate cheesecake and yum !! it's keto friendly. Being a type 2 diabetic I still limit myself to 2 helping teaspoons for dessert. They offer a bunch of flavors, try it !

Yes I have had it and it's very good. Lot's of flavors! Maybe you can stop at 2 teaspoons even though their heaping @Goodie2shoes but there are days I consider it a meal replacement

I didn't care for it. It was like flavored water.

If you are going to eat this type of ice cream try Breyer's delights. It is much better.

Did you at least mean 2 tablespoons, @Goodie2shoes? You have a good deal of will power!

Never heard of it. I don't eat ice cream that often and when I do it better be fully loaded with all the fat and sugar. Might as well go all the way.

I buy Halo and like it a lot, but I could never do just 2 heaping teaspoons. Sometimes I
eat the whole container and then skip lunch.

I have tried Halo Top, Enlightened, and Nicks. You have to read the labels carefully on the Halo Top, I once accidentally bought the dairy free version, it was horrible.

@mamaslittlepotato lol...my husband asks me how I can only eat 2 peanut M&M's? It takes a LOT of will power.

I've had my fair share of Halo. The lemon is great and the caramel one is good too. Unfortunately, I have had a couple that I think were old, just not as good. But, I highly recommend!!

I tried 5 or 6 flavors about 3 years ago, and they all tasted like chalk to me. Maybe they've improved.

I would eat the entire container at one setting but I have to manage my type 2 diabetes darn it !

@croemer TWO peanut m&m’s? I couldn’t do it. I could do two bags maybe. 😀 Only two would be a tease to me; they’re one of my weaknesses.

The fake sugar in it gives me the runs.

Halo Top came out when keto became popular. I have tried it a couple of times but it seems very expensive and DH blows through an entire pint at one sitting....but it does taste really good!

@Goodie2shoes

I have tried several flavors, and the ones I thought I'd like best, I didn't. However, from a taste standpoint, I think the Salted Caramel is their best flavor. Plus the fact that I could eat the whole pint if I wanted to, and not do much damage.

It may be good but one word in the ingredients stopped me from buying it "erythritol". I can't have any of those "ol" sugars. They upset my stomach like crazy. Wish I could try it but nope it's an easy pass for me. For those with a tolerance for those sugars I do envy you.
