If you eat Halo Top, what flavors do you recommend the most?

I first tried lemon and liked it. Didn't really like the chocolate so much, or cookie dough. But I just tried sea salt caramel and I absolutely loved it! I'm glad I finally found one I really like - they're too expensive to keep doing trial and error. So, what flavors do you love, or think I might like based on the fact that I enjoyed the caramel one the most?

    I recently gave the brand a shot. I tried Oatmeal Cookie and Birthday Cake. I liked them both! I want to try Cookie Dough next, hopefully it won't be a waste of 6 dollars haha

    Peanut butter cup seems to be the most universally liked - that and chocolate are my favorites!

    Ah thanks! Well I didn't hate it, but I guess since I'm not a huge fan of vanilla ice cream I should have expected not to like the cookie dough as much. The little cookie dough bits and chocolate chips are delicious but small.

    Peanut butter cup is the best one I've had. I just ate a pint of oatmeal cookie and the ice cream was good but it had Iike raw flat oats in it. That part was not great.

    Thanks! I'd probably like peanut butter cup.

    Chocolate Mocha Chip my favorite.

    Chocolate Almond tasted like strong almond extract. So no.

    Caramel Sea Salt was good but tastes just like butter pecan and I kept hoping for pecan pieces. I might mix some in next time.

    Mint chip is my favorite but I haven't tried all the new flavors.

    On the cost front, if you have a Kroger that carries it it's $2 cheaper a pint than Whole Foods and they put it on sale frequently

    Oatmeal cookie, birthday cake, mint chip, lemon, and vanilla are my most favorite. I also like pistachio, black cherry, and chocolate but not as much as the others. I really want to try peanut butter cup and the sea salt caramel but my store doesn't carry it.

    Thanks! I've been seeing all the flavors at a local health food store down the street from me, so I view it as convenience at a cost. They have a sale flier I should subscribe to asap now that I discovered I can eat a pint in one sitting no problem lol! Looks like there are no Krogers in the northeast :(

    Peanut butter cup is incredible, the only time I have eaten the whole pint in one sitting :)

    Mint chip is pretty amazing. Thr others struck me as kind of meh. Then again, as an admitted mint junky, I may be biased.

    It's a toss up between oatmeal with lite chocolate syrup and the peanut butter cup. I do warm the pint up for about 45 seconds in the microwave. Red velvet comes in third. I eat one most nights and sometimes two if I had a long run that day. Hopefully the prices will come down soon.

    Ugh. I'd never heard of it, but now I'll have to give it a shot. Lots of local stores carry it according to the "where to find it" section.

    I usually judge the abilities of the ice cream maker on how vanilla tastes. So is the vanilla any good? Or do you need the flavors?

    They're on sale at Shop Rite this week here... Going to go back and stock up.

    My caramel pint had a weird aftertaste unfortunately (it's happened a couple times for me) so I'd say peanut butter chocolate. But honestly, apart from those weird two pints (one was vanilla), I haven't found one I don't like yet. Red velvet and birthday cake are up there too.

    Oh my gosh, I live on a tiny base in Germany, and we just got it here last week. I tried it for the first time yesterday and fell in love - and that's coming from someone who cannot handle substitutes for real deliciousness. And I only got vanilla, not my choice ever, and I still really liked it. If I'm lucky I'll get to try the birthday cake flavor soon.

    I tried Peanut Butter Cup recently and really liked it! Halo Top was on sale at Kroger for $4.49, so I bought another one. I also like Birthday Cake. I think some of the Halo Top flavors are a good substitute for the real thing.

    birthday cake! The strawberry was good as was the chocolate. I don't care for the chocolate almond crunch because of the strong amaretto burn, also not a huge fan of the lemon. The cookies and cream was fine, really creamy, my bf loved the black cherry. I'm working my way through the flavors. Next will be cookie dough or s'mores maybe.

    Love peanut butter cup and birthday cake, and lemon cake so far! Have a bunch to try in my freezer....red velvet, pistachio, oatmeal cookie, chocolate almond, black cherry and cookie dough.

    Tried the smores....was good, but didn't taste like smores, more like coffee. I like coffee ice cream though so would probably buy it again. Cookies and cream was just ok....won't be repurchasing that one.

    Oatmeal cookie, sea salt caramel, vanilla, smores...birthday cake is good too.

    I didn't care for chocolate almond. Cookie dough and cookies and cream were ok, but nothing special.

    Peanut butter cup is the best we've tried. I mean, it's killer if you are a PB/Choc fan. The plain ol Chocolate is also excellent. It was the first flavor I tried, and we couldn't believe it was a low-calorie ice cream.

    I bought both Mint Chip and Birthday Cake, and threw both of them out - just did not taste good to me at all.
    I just bought a pint of the Oatmeal Cookie, and I thought it was pretty good. I won't be throwing it out for sure. :)

    I eat Breyer's Blast, better tasting and virtually same calories.

    Reese's PB cups, strawberry cheesecake, and S'mores currently my favs.

    Peanut butter cup
    Salted caramel
    Pistachio
    Red velvet
    Oatmeal cookie (I think that's what it's called)
    Strawberry, lemon cake and chocolate are good for the OG flavors


    I really don't like cookies & cream, cookie dough or vanilla. Had vanilla where it was good once and the other few times tasted weird and chemically.
