    I’ve never had Blue Bunny ice cream before - decided to look it up - and not one retailer on the island of Manhattan! *gasp* 🤔

    I can get Ethiopian food at 2am or Ambuyat from Brunei - but not Blue Bunny Ice Cream! Lol

    If you got that from their website, take it with a grain of salt. If I can get it at my local Big Y, I'm sure you can find it locally. 😉

    Lol, while I live in Mexico now, I grew up in the Northeast. I haven't heard Big Y in years! My mother used to shop there.

    @LyndaBSS - I did get it from their website! Now I’m curious to see if I can find it in a store 😉

    With you, I like light ice cream but not Halo Top. They use coconut milk in a lot of flavors and I don't care for it. Hope they come out with something new!

    I tried Halo Top twice, one was birthday cake flavor and I think the other was mint chocolate chip. They were revolting! I couldn't believe all the online raves, it was like Halo Top hired spammers and paid them per mention or something. Better to just have a little regular light ice cream and enjoy it.

    I found halo top awful too. Chilly cow was ok—but the Enlightened ice creams are delicious. I love all of them

    I used to really love Enlightened too but I think now that I'm in maintenance and have allowed myself "real" ice cream once in awhile my taste buds have gotten sensitive to the sweeteners they use,I even have that with Quest cookies which I used to adore but now they just taste chemical to me

    Same here...Hyvee makes an ice cream called Till the Cows Come Home Espresso yourself. Have a very hard time not eating the whole pint while watching movies with my hubby. :D

    Apparently an unpopular opinion but I still like a bunch of the halo top flavors. Especially pistachio. Oh god, pistachio. :)

    I stopped getting Halo Top a couple of years ago and never tried a lot of their flavors. You both are making me think I should make a trip to the store to check them out and if I'm doing that, are there any others I should check out? :) Or be sure to avoid? ;)

    yeah when halo top first came out i tried it - yuck! i was then told some are better than others, but no.... it wasnt even edible to me and i wasnt going to waste more money risking it LOL

    i havent seen/noticed the enlightened one. i wasnt overly crazy about the chilly cow cookie dough (not enough cookie dough HAHA!). havent tried the brownie batter, but im not one for chocolate ice cream (weird since i love chocolate). but i did restock the salted caramel yesterday at the store LOL
