    I just can't, I've tried a couple of flavors, and the texture and taste just aren't worth it. I feel like it's one of those things, where a couple of really healthy people talked about how awesome it is, and it's become this new trend for people to say how much they love it. It does not come even close to the taste of real ice cream, it has like a powdery taste, and you can taste the sugar alcohols in it. I thought the bryers version was better, but really only their cookies and cream is ok, but still doesn't compare to the real thing. Have a cup of good ice cream, and call it a day, instead of a pint of flavored gritty ice.

    I used to have Halo Top too but then I had real ice cream again and, well... Maybe I'd take HT over Turkey Hill or Friendly's, but still, I can't ignore the aftertaste (strong for some flavor like salted caramel) and that weird feeling on my tongue.

    I did like the Breyer's version better as I couldn't taste anything weird. Enlightened also tastes very artificial to me.

    I tried it for the first time recently. Mint chip is my favorite. Chocolate chip cookie dough was my least favorite; whatever artificial thing they put in the cookie dough left an awful aftertaste "burn" in my throat. I let it sit out and get really soft, and I find it satisfying. But I was not much of an ice cream eater to begin with, so I don't exactly compare it to the "real thing".

    I am looking forward to trying this when it hits the Uk in January (of course it would, to target all those people trying to get rid of the Christmas weight gain), but I am not interested in eating an entire pint, even if the calories are quite low, because I just cannot handle that much in my stomach anymore, lol. To think, I used to easily down a pint of Ben And Jerry's Cookie Dough.

    I keep Halo Top in my freezer all the time - well, most of the time. I'm currently eating Chocolate Mocha Chip. Black Cherry is my favorite.

    Just tried Skinny Cow ice cream Oh Fudge flavor. A little more calories but 1/2 pint 170 calories. Delicious!

    My local grocery store had some insane Halo Top sale a few weeks ago...it was like, if you buy 5 or more, they were only 1.99 each. Needless to say, I bought as much Birthday Cake and Vanilla as my poor freezer can handle.

    There's ice cream, and there's Halo Top. Halo Top is Halo Top. Blue Bell No Sugar Added Ice Cream is Ice Cream. There's a world of difference. The only problem is, BBNSA is only offered in Vanilla.

    Oatmeal cookie is crazy indulgent. I was shocked.

    I've tried every single flavor of every single low calorie ice cream ever made in the universe. The Enlightened Oatmeal is by FAR the best.

    Wish these were all available in canada:( Having dental surgery tomorow and fully intend to live the healing time surviving on icecream. Calories be damned. These would make it less damaging XD

    You should try Enlightened ice cream. Even better, IMHO.
