    Cake Batter Artic Zero is yummy and only 35 calories per serving. I add some walnuts, dark chocolate chips, and fat free whipped cream (high carb day I add 1/2 a banana for a sundae look). Sometimes I add a little bit of Blood Orange Olive Oil..shocking but it makes it taste like creamsicle...mmmmm. Can't say enough...I make room in my diet for this ice cream treat every day and it doesn't mess up my macro.

    Artic Zero cool mint chip, snickerdoodle, and cookie dough flavors are yummy too but they are 75 calories per serving, whereas I can have more of the cake batter flavor at 35 calories per serving....mmmm! Personal preference - I'm not a fan of the other flavors...I wish they made the butter pecan flavor taste better...missed opportunity on that one. Enlightened ice cream are amazing (bars and pints) but they have more calories and fat...but great cheat/treat items for sure.

    For the price arctic zero is very disappointing. The taste/texture is off and tastes super diety. Ive never tried halo top but will give it a shot after these reviews. My personal favorite at slightly higher calories and around 4.5$ per pint/box is Greek frozen yogurt. High in protein and calcium with probiotics and around 100 calories. Tastes "real" too lol.

    Edit: yeah enlightened are a personal favorite of mine :)

    We love Halo Top, but we thought Artic Zero tasted like disappointment. The lemon cake halo top doesn't taste very lemony to me. It just tasted like vanilla icecream. Oatmeal cookie is my favorite and I loved their mint chocolate chip even though I don't like mint chocolate chip icecream.

    I am currently eating Arctic Zero in Cookie Shake flavor. For 150 calories a pint I give it an A+

    I'm dying to try Halo top, but at $12 a pint (Australia) i just cant bring myself to buy it. That would be $6 per bowl :noway:

    Halo top is delicious but destroys my tummy (I'm lactose intolerant) and arctic zero is really quite good! I go through soooo many pints of both. My body is happy, my wallet is not.

    I've tried the Halo Top pistachio and strawberry and they were fine, the birthday cake upset my stomach. But the salted caramel is the bomb.

    So far, I've only tried one flavor from HT (cookies & cream). I found it disgusting, smell and taste. :s

    Oppo in the UK is meant to be the same but I haven't tried it yet.

    I tend to stick with Aldi mini deluxe

    Just got Halo top here in my local grocery store. I requested it about 3 weeks ago because of the mfp reviews.

    I have to say... Yum!!!!

    I love Halo Top. Arctic Zero, on the other hand, tastes like it's made with the tears of human sadness.

    This pretty much.

    Halo Top makes me not miss regular ice cream that much... I just wish it wasn't 6$ a pint, and I wish i didn't have to venture into Whole Foods to get it..... hate going into Whole Foods so much.

    I tried Arctic Zero and it tasted exactly like the protein fluff I make. Too expensive when I can make my own.

    My sludge actually has far more taste than AZ, though it's admittedly more calorie dense. It's also 90+% protein though, so unlike AZ, I can eat a bowl of my stuff and be set for several hours.
