Sometimes life demands ice cream. There is just no way around it. If you’re anything like me, sometimes life demands the entire pint. Ben and Jerrys used to be my choice for death by calories. Now, I find it difficult to justify at least 1000 calories, no matter how great pumpkin cheesecake tastes.
This is a solution that works for me when my day has sucked bad enough that they only remedy is a spoon and a pint. It’s called Arctic Zone ice cream. I had the Mint Chocolate Chip. I warn you, it’s spendy around 4 bucks a pint. And it’s no Ben and Jerrys. But it is 150 calories. For the whole pint.
It’s gluten free, lactose free, organic and natural, and low sugar. So it probably tastes like crap right? It’s actually not bad. Don’t expect it to be creamy fattening ice cream, because you will be disappointed. But if you need the cold, frozen, dig your spoon into something, fix- then give it a try. Think of it more like a minty chocalatey slushy.
