    Thanks Jassi! If I can find it, I'll try it. I have a horrible sweet tooth.

    Arctic Zero is inedible. I'd rather have one small tablespoon of good ice cream than an entire pint of Arctic Zero. Seriously... BLECH!

    I thought I was getting a deal with my 1/2 cup of Greek frozen yogurt at 150 calories! I'll definitely have to check this out after I run out of my frozen yogurt.

    Thank you! (:

    Who cares if it's 150 calories if it tastes like crap? I prefer the real stuff or nothing at all. Just because they call it "ice cream" doesn't make it ice cream.

    My go to frozen treat is a scoop of Breyer's vanilla bean frozen yogurt in a little 20 calorie cake cone. 120 calories total and it makes me happy happy happy. :) I can sit on my back porch with my kids and eat my treat while they eat theirs. Or I'll add a scoop of the same yogurt with a little (1/2 cup-ish) Silk Dark Chocolate almond milk and ice, add it to my Ninja and make a "milkshake." Again it rocks.

    they call it a frozen dessert on the pint if I'm not mistaken.... so they can't even call it ice cream :sick:

    Troof. For instance, last night I only have 3/4 of a pint of B&J's Strawberry Cheesecake.

    Never mind that I'd eaten 1/2 cup a couple days ago and that's all that was left in the freezer.

    Arctic Zero. Hmm. I've given it a couple shots. I find that the taste is severely lacking (like, I want to dump Hershey's syrup all over it to get some amount of flavor) and it leaves me with terrible gut rot.

    I'd rather get some light ice cream/frozen yogurt, really enjoy my half a cup, and be content with that. Not to mention, Arctic Zero is $4.50-5.50/pint where I live. Hardly worth the product you get.

    I would rather just eat a serving of real ice cream instead. Or two servings because I can make it fit my macros

    I have a pint of the Chocolate Peanut butter on my desk in front of me right now.
    I'm seriously thinking about throwing it in the trash can it's so bad, and Ice Cream is my Kryptonite.
    I don't know what it is but ice cream it isn't...

    I appreciate that the OP passed on some info on a product that some might like but this stuff just isn't good...

    EDIT: It's in the trash and I've just realized that it has an aftertaste.... I'm trading the "Ice Cream" for some Green Giant rice & Broccoli. Yes it's that bad! LoL

    Another EDIT: I just visited the Arctic Zero website, they have a "Submit a Video" asking for submissions as to why you love AZ, Hmmmm... This might get interesting! LoL

    I've heard of that before but haven't found it in the local Walmart to try. There is an article I read about this ice cream having more calories than it claims to have and the reviews are not all that great, but I might still try it. I am addicted to Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches at the moment. :)

    Ok seriously... that's complete bull. The FDA needs to figure out a way to regulate nutrition labels or they shouldn't even bother. 68% off from what the food label says? Ugh
    Even if it was the best darn ice cream ever I wouldn't eat it for the principal that they are lying about their product.

    I freeze yogurt, then defrost 20 secs in microwave. Gorgeous and 99 calories.

    Just had one with strawberries and 1 meringue broken up.... heaven.

    I hate Artic Zero, I threw out the entire thing after 2 spoonfulls.

    I like to eat skinny cow sometimes, I particularly like their ice cream sandwiches. Lately though, when I want ice cream, I've been buying the teeny single serving cups from Ben and Jerry's or whoever else makes them. Real ice cream, but won't sit in my freezer and tempt me for a week.

    I really like the Danon Oikos frozen greek yogurt ice cream too. The chocolate flavor was awesome and I'm going after Key Lime next time.

    Add me to the list of people who would rather eat a reasonable amount of real ice cream than gorge on a whole pint of what tastes like crappy frozen protein shake. That is one thing I have learned while losing weight (and now maintaining) on MFP: I would almost always have less of the "real" (meaning high calorie/fat) stuff than boat loads of the inferior imposter. This goes for ice cream, brownies (keep black beans out of my brownies, you sickos!!), butter, etc.

    I wish I could be like you........but I'm greedy as hell, and once I get started on something I really like........ things can easily spin out of control. You cannot set a dozen krispy kream donuts in front of me and expect to only eat half of one. Same goes with pizza. RAWR!

    Eventually you will need to learn self control.

    I tried the mint chocolate chip one - you need to definitely let it thaw for a good 10 minutes. The consistency was like ice cream but not the taste - it kind of reminded me of flavored cool whip. I don't really think it's worth the money; it was like 6 bucks for the pint.

    Just for my own amusement I sent the "Arctic Zero" people this e-mail. I also included a copy of the register receipt, not that I think it will matter! LoL

    To Whom it May Concern,
    I just discovered your products today after a web posting mentioned them. Since I had to hit the grocery store I decided to pick some up and give it a try, I found only one offering in the ice cream section, your “Chocolate Peanut Butter” flavor. I picked up a pint and was looking forward to trying it, ice cream is my Kryptonite and I’ve really had an urge to have some lately.

    I got back to my office and gave it a try and all I can say is WOW!
    This is the most vile and reprehensible substance that I’ve ever had the displeasure to put in my mouth! On a scale of 1-10 I would rate it somewhere well below Zero. Maybe close to actual zero, like frozen solid in outer space zero. This substance could be used at Guantanamo Bay to make Al Qaeda terrorists renounce allah and claim allegiance to the west, I mean this crap is bad.

    I spent $4.47 of my hard earned money on a pint of this substance and honestly, somehow I feel somewhat dirty. Please refund me my $4.47 so I might be able to put this horrible moment of my life behind me and move on.

    Thank you,

    My boss brought that to work and my thoughts for 150 cal for an entire pint? Cannot be good. She confirmed when she said it was like frozen chalk-water.

    lol. It wouldn't be such an offense if the product was priced cheaper. $4.47 is rather "well-priced" for Artic Zero actually. I normally see it at $5 and up. To me, it tastes like a frozen slurry of water. It tastes "better" when you sprinkle each spoon with a little calorie-free sweetener.
