    Well, I'm the latest addict-could have eaten the whole container! But, what is it REALLY made of? No dairy there that 's for sure. Melted, thawed, I'll definetly be filling the freezer! Great ideas, keep thewm coming!

    lmbo! I always keep a container of ff cool whip in the freezer just for this purpose. I just got the HG cookbook and there is a recipe in it for an ice cream sandwich made with the large caramel corn rice cakes and ff cool whip. Can't wait to try it!

    I make these with the mini ones. So good. Even the kids like them. It's good with the chocolate ones too.

    yeah thats pretty evident to most people. We are all adults and can decide for ourselves if we want to eat any given food or not. I just finished a bowl of frozen bannanas,strawberries and cool whip so i guess you know what my choice is.

    Cool whip is still made with trans fats? I wish there was a sugar free and fat free version.

    Eat without pretending, eat what you want. Just keep it in moderation, really! Unless... you like pretending that cool whip is ice cream, and a McDouble is kobe beef, and that cauliflower is anything but cauliflower...

    Cool Whip isn't real food, so I don't buy it.

    Here's my ice cream substitute:

    Plain, vanilla, or honey low-fat yogurt (current fav is Nancy's Honey Yogurt).
    Frozen berries, cherries, or peaches.
    Drizzle of honey (optional)

    Stir the fruit into the yogurt. Add a little honey if the yogurt is sour. Let this sit for a bit until the berries and yogurt are both semi-frozen. Or just throw it in a blender for a smoothie.

    I can eat a ton of this for the same calories that are in one tiny scoop of ice cream, and it's all good for me.

    I LOVE the cool whip/graham cracker "ice cream" sandwiches. SO yummy! :)


    And I agree with the poster that said we're adults who get to make our own decisions with food. I know it's not real. I know it's not the best thing out there...but it sure is tasty, and it's not like I'm eating gallons of it every day. :)

    I know there is a light version.


    I love cool whip, I could sit and eat a whole container on it's own! But I don't pretend it's ice cream...because it's Cool Whip.

    yeah i wondered how long it would take for the anti coolwhip crowd. Whatever i had two obstacles for ME when it came to weightloss one was icecream the other was beer. I switched from lite beer to bud 55 and got a yonannas machine to satisfy my ice cream cravings.
