    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,

    I love this! I want to hear the response :)

    I'm not really anticipating a response!
    But I do somehow feel a little better, but I still want some damn ice cream!!!

    Go get some Talenti Sea Salt Caramel Gelato your tastebuds will like you again!

    FIFY :wink:

    Yes Sea Salt Caramel Gelato is required to make up for suffering through a taste of Artic Zero.

    I'mma drop some knowledge on y'all.

    Save the $$, blend ice and protein powder and water, then freeze overnight, let thaw 20 minutes, and you've got the exact. same. thing.

    Does that sound good? No? I swear to god, same thing. Bleaugh.

    That said, I recently discovered
    http://proyofrozenyogurt.com/

    I tried the chocolate one, and it's AWESOME. Not as soft as ice cream, but let thaw 5ish minutes, and it's got the right texture, and the flavor FAR OUTDOES the damn Arctic Zero Flavor.

    I agree that this Arctic Zero stuff tastes gawd awful. I also threw it out after 2 bites.

    I also second/third/whatever the motion to eat Talenti gelato instead. I recently discovered they have double dark chocolate gelato bars dipped in chocolate for 210 calories. Heaven.

    That stuff is absolutely horrible. It is not ice cream.

    I have found, in general, that less of the real, good stuff leaves me feeling a lot more satisfied. It's true with ice cream, butter, bacon... all that sort of thing.
  • This sounds super interesting! I'll have to try it

    I like to blend a frozen banana, some ice, almond milk, cacao powder, and some chocolate chips. Sometimes I'll add frozen cherries! To me, it's like a milk shake and it definitely satisfies the ice cream need. Sometimes, I'll add protein powder and even spinach to make it more of a meal. I don't taste the spinach.

    Also, I like the almond milk ice cream. It's lighter than regular, but it has a great flavor and much lower cals.

    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.

    Why would you want to waste time by sprinkling a little sweetener on your spoon every time you go for a bite?

    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. :)

    Have you tried Skinny Cow's fudge bars? *om, nom, nom*

    I like the Blue Bunny Sweet Freedom Ice Cream Krunch bars. :) They only have 100 calories each. I looked it up, and there are a whole bunch of "Sweet Freedom" ice creams by Blue Bunny. I got mine at WalMart!

    Arctic Zero is legit. I bodybuild and my wife is an NPC Fitness Model, and during cutting season, Arctic Zero Vanilla Maple is a LIFE SAVER! After dinner, I love my (1) 1 cup arctic zero vanilla maple, (2) 200g strawberries; (3) 1 scoop micellar casien (slow burning / digesting protein); and (4) a little Walden Farms Chocolate or Caramel syrup -- that's literally 260 calories, tons of protein, and 5g of sugar (something like that) -- what more do you want in dessert?? Sure cutting for contest / show sucks, but Arctic Zero just made life a little easier -- along w/ Walden Farms of course..

    Not sure if it was brought up already b/c I didn't read everyone's posts. But it's been tested (there is a study online I've seen before) that they were frauding on their labels. It tested more calories than they claimed. Still better than regular ice cream but it's up to 20% more than their label claims. So be careful.

    Our sample of Arctic Zero Vanilla Maple had a whopping 46 percent more calories than the label. The Chocolate Peanut Butter: an incredible 68 percent more calories.
