    I'm going to be the weird one. I am not a fan - the ingredient list freaks me out. Here is an example for their ice cream sandwich:
    skim milk, wafer (bleached wheat flour, sugar, caramel color, dextrose, palm oil, corn flour, cocoa, high fructose corn syrup, modified corn starch, baking soda, salt, mon0 and diglycerides, soy lecithin), sugar, corn syrup, polydextrose, cream, whey protein, inulin, stabilizer (microcrystalline cellulose, cellulose gum, mono and diglycerides, locust bean gum, calcium sulfate, polysorbate 80, carageenan), natural flavor, vitamin A palmitate.

    This breaks my rules in a bunch of places. It's got corn sugar (dextrose), normal sugar, HFCS. It's also got a bunch of chemicals I can't pronounce.

    Ice cream to me should be "milk, cream, egg, sugar." Not the massive list above. I'd rather eat a sensible amount of froyo or homemade ice cream where I can vouch for all of the ingredients.

    Haven't tried the ice cream just the snack bars. Stay away from them they are addictive. Loved the peanut butter too much I don't bring them in the house anymore:noway:

    Agree 100% I was eating them for a while and started getting "gurgly tummy" and that was the only thing that I could think that was causing it. Stopped eating them and viola!!!! No Gurgles :)

    Anyway, all that artificial chemical stuff wasn't agreeing with me.

    But I agree with everyone! They did taste delicious :(
