Halo Top Intervention

I might need a Halo Top ice cream intervention. I bought 9 different flavors yesterday at Walmart, including several that I had not tried before. I can make each pint last 3-4 days easily. What flavors do you love? So far my favorite is the peanut butter cup, but I tried chocolate almond crunch and fell in love.

    Ooooh, I don't think that was one of the flavors I picked up yesterday. I don't remember seeing that one. I'll have to look next time.

    I love the lemon cake one, and I'm not normally a fan of other "cake" flavored ice creams. Very pleasant surprise.

    $15 a pint?! It's $4.64/pint here, and like I said, it lasts me multiple days.

    There may be a coupon on their website. I got a coupon from a grocery store for a free pint.

    It's always on sale here and I usually keep 4-5 pints on hand. Makes good boozy milkshakes.

    I tried halo top and was dissapointed by the consistency of it and the price lol . I know it's not going to be the exact same as my fav bluebell ice cream but the halotop was so hard and icy didn't give me a want for it ever again . I'd rather have a tiny amount of a good ice cream and stay in calorie goal

    You're supposed to let it sit on the counter and get soft. It says that right on the container.

    This is why I not not bought it. But I will probably break down at some point.

    Either let it sit on the counter or zap it for 5-10 seconds (but definitely no more) in the microwave. Softens right up.

    Oh my gosh! I too have a problem. When it goes on sale for BOGO or reduced sale I buy at least 30...not exaggerating. Just enough to last me 6-8 for the next sale.

    Peanut butter, birthday cake, lemon cake, salted caramel. I don't even wait to let it thaw anymore and dig right in. Yummy

    Usually gone in one sitting.

    Favs are PB and vanilla. When my store has them on sale for $2.88, I stock up. :)

    I ate a pint a night for three nights about three weeks ago and I'm only just pooping normal again.

    I really enjoy the smores kind. I was really pleasantly surprised when I tried that one because I had tried the PB cup previously and wasn't all that impressed.

    I still have a bunch in my freezer from the last $2.88 a pint sale. Honestly though... getting bored with the flavors.

    It's $12 a tub here in Australia. I had to walk away from the Halo top, spending over $30 on these tiny tubs of ice cream every time i went grocery shopping was killing me! An added annoyance is that we only have the plain boring flavours here, no peanut butter or the other froo froo flavours.

    Last weekend I confidently grabbed a 1/2 gallon of 90 cal per 1/2 cup Blue Bell No Sugar Added Vanilla, ($5.28) and as I left a muscle-bound and sleeveless fellow was clearly gathering his willpower to spend at the Halo-Top ($4.64) display.

    I have tried the birthday cake flavor so far & have PB choc sitting in my freezer. The birthday cake was SO sweet I couldn't eat it straight, but it was really great as a milkshake.
