Low Carb Ben and Jerrys

I just read on the Atkins page that BJ's do low carb ice cream, I checked out their website and it's true!!

They have 3 flavours ranging from 5 to 2g net carbs a portion (1/2 a cup).
I've emailed them about their prospects of introducing it over here. I want it so bad!!!!

I emailed them a while ago and was told that they have no plans to sell it in the uk at the moment.

However, if enough of us keep badgering them, then perhaps they'll change their minds!

Also btdt. I got a polite 'no'. Something about not being able to carry all of the US lines over here due to shelf space??

Hi

Thanks for your interest in Ben & Jerry's. We are trailing Low Carb ice
cream in the USA at present but have no plans to bring it to the UK for the
foreseeable future. As you know Ben & Jerry's is a "full on" ice cream, we
shall see how it goes.
