I noticed today that the online grocer from which I order my groceries now offers a low carb ice cream from Ben & Jerry's. It's more carbs than I can have, but others might be able to handle it...

That's an excellent point, Paris! I guess this must be part of their customer retention program.

I've been looking for this ice cream every week, I'm with you Doanld, too high for me too. I'll stick to my occasional 1/2 cup of Atkins chocolate peanut butter ice cream.

I had the chocolate at a ben and jerrys here in my town. I was ok. I really have to say I like the atkins brand better. The ben and jerrys choc was kinda bitter. The vanilla almond was yummy though

It does have 2 net carbs but it is disgusting. I haven't tried the others, but the vanilla almond is really bad!

I tried the Vanilla Almond today. It's not bad but I think the Breyers Low Carb Ice cream was much better.

Post Skinny Carb Bar

Well, this is my first post even though I've been scrolling and scanning through this forum secretly for quite some time now. I just thought I'd reply quickly to this topic regarding the mention of Silhouette Ice Cream Bars...I purchased the chocolate peanut butter Skinny Carb Bars recently and have to say in my opinion that they aren't worth the extra money or carbs. Luckily I bought them on sale. They weren't awful, but they weren't that good either. They were sort of a stale peanutty taste and not very chocolatey at all. I'd rather buy (Breyers) Carbsmart chocolate fudge bars at the same count of net carbs (3). Hope this helps. Thanks for being such a wonderful forum!
