    Got the strawberry for tonight.

    Has anyone actually weighed out a pint? I haven't been weighing out my pre-packaged stuff lately but I need to buckle down a bit. Just wondering how the weight comes in compared to what the package says.

    I have. Most of my Halo Top pints have come out to less than the listed weight.

    I bought a pint of the Wink Frozen Desserts Choco-mint at Whole Foods today. Not good at all. Way worse than Arctic Zero. I admit, the 100 calorie point was alluring but never again

    Yeah I used Wink before I could get my hands on AZ. I have to add a lot to it to make it bearable.

    Tried it, liked it, but at 6.49/pint way out of my budget except for extreme and I mean extreme ice cream necessity.

    Haven't tried it yet. They only just had more than one flavor available at the store the other day, but I was on a mission to get Lifeway frozen kefir (not ice cream but still amazing!!!).
    I'll have to try it. I was afraid it was like Wink or AZ. I hated Wink...ate about two bites and had to toss it. AZ, whatever flavor it was I had, wasn't too good, but I still ate it.
    Luckily this stuff's only like $4 here instead of $6-7.

    My Whole Foods is always out even when it's not on sale and doesn't carry the birthday cake flavor anyway... so I'm not going to bother checking. I refuse to pay the outrageous price for a pint otherwise... and I don't like mint, lemon, or strawberry ice cream, lol.

    But I've tried the vanilla and was disappointed the second time (it was good the first time but I think my expectations were very low). I really can't recommend eating the whole pint either, I spent a LOT of time in the bathroom after I did.

    I like Enlightened a lot though, but it has more calories.

    Chocolate Halo Top is awesome. As far as Arctic Zero goes, all I've tried is awful except for the brownie blast, which is actually pretty awesome.

    You guys keep talking about this Halo Top stuff and i might actually have to try it. I'll wait til after I finish paying my calorie debt to the ice cream gods for that pint of Sam's Choice Raspberry Cheesecake I ate over the last 2 days.

    So I went to Whole Foods today and bought the mint chip and chocolate ones, and it's way better than Arctic Zero! So much more like actual ice cream. I put it in one of those 10 calorie ice cream cones so I don't eat the entire pint lol

    I get it so I can eat the entire pint. I've never not eaten the entire pint.
    I would but they're $6 which is way too expensive for me and it kind of feels like a waste just eating the whole thing in one sitting haha

    Yeah, I pretty much eat the entire pint. At 24g protein, I count it as a meal.

    Our supermarket almost never seems to have it in stock, and this past week they only had chocolate so I tried that. For a low-calorie ice cream, I was impressed. I had tried Arctic Zero before (cookie dough) and it tasted like an ice cube with chunks of cookie dough in it, so I was worried I was wasting my money again. I'm glad I went for it, and I'd like to try other flavors if I ever see them.

    Darn, I really wanted to try this, but sugar alcohols are a disaster for my digestive system.
