I recently tried two flavors of Halo Top and they both made my tongue feel very strange, almost numb like Novocaine! Has anyone experienced anything similar? Strange!

I'm sure there is something on this in the 192,488,378,922.756 other Halo Top posts1 -
Sorry, I didn't realize I was supposed to read every post that's ever been written before asking a genuine question. I've never seen it mentioned, so I asked.9

Some people have that reaction to sugar alcohols. Halo Top is sweetened with erythritol. Of all sugar alcohols, it's my favourite and I buy it in bags to bake with. It's just an unfortunate side effect that some experience!1

nope never had this experience before (Thank God, since i love Halo Top), but defiantly sounds like a allergic reaction to one of the ingredients.0
-
I get that feeling if I eat half a pint or more, but I think it is because it is cold... happens with regular frozen foods too.1

Soooo did we rule out it going numb due to the fact you're eating ice cream?
I understand you may be having a reaction but let's rule out the obvious "it's ice cream" answer first shall we?
THEN what I would do is find out what ingredients are in Halo Top that are in OTHER ice cream brands and eat them (for science) and eliminate what is SPECIFIC ingredient is causing a reaction.
Science man. science.4 -

It's the erythritol. Some people just have a sensitivity to it that causes tongue numbness/tingling.0 -

I get that too. It's not an odd or inappropriate question.0

Thanks for all the great answers! I did rule out the fact that it was ice cream This doesn't happen with any other cold/iced foods and happened with only the smallest bite on my tongue and only where it touched my tongue, not my whole mouth. Thanks for the insight, I'll probably pass on it from now on to be safe!0

I'm glad I don't have that problem with it. I may have...uh...other problems with it tho.3 -
I personally think this "ice cream" is disgusting. Im even more disgusted that i have hundreds of dollars of it stashed in my freezer because i fell victim to fomo mentality.1
