    I like the mint chocolate and the birthday cake.

    Better than artic zero. Had one tub and it just wasn't good. I need to give the breyers flavors a shot. To see if they've got a better grip on the texture problem.

    I mean I totally get that Halo top isn't ice cream and there's some compromises in texture, but It just wasn't right.


    And regards the lawsuit. Seriously? It's 2-3 times the price of B&J's. Might want to take a really close look before spending that kind of money.
    Don't know where you are but where I live b&j ice cream is £4.99 halo top is £5.00

    Arctic zero is awful!! I have a friend that has tried the Breyers and said it is the best out of the 3 but I haven't tried it for myself yet. Mint chocolate is my favorite too :)

    We've only just got brewers and halo top here in England. Breyers I find very hard and the vanilla just tastes weird. Sea salt caramel halo is soft and tastes nice to me

    We recently tried Chilly Cow, and it's my favorite of all the brands. I hear the bars are garbage though. We tried the Brown Butter Salted Caramel and the Chocolate Brownie Batter and enjoyed both.

    ETA: Instead of pints, they come in 2 realistic serving size portions that are each under 200 calories.

    I was thinking the exact same thing, lol!

    He seems like one of those people that spills a little bit of water in a supermarket and then “slips” on it so he can sue and collect damages for his “injuries”.

    I was thinking of him in Shop Rite today. Halo Top is in an end cap freezer and as you walk by, you can't help but have your eye grabbed by... the big honking calorie count on the label. Seriously, it stands out in the freezer case. I can't understand how there's a case to be made out of this. You'd think the name of the product was "240" from a distance or something.
