    Not available in the UK, so I'm going to be all grumpy and stamp my foot and say that eating ice cream is a stupid habit anyway. :sad:

    Ditto.

    i am lactose intolerant and i am jealous!!! mint chocolate chip was my favorite!!! i can eat a wendy's frosty and it only makes me slightly ill so that is my occasional splurge when i can plan being sick for a day :)

    Buy some Lactaid. It'll change your life. Even the cheap generic works. That said, I could live my life without ice cream after all the trauma I endured before I knew I was lactose intolerant.

    On their site it says it's suitable for those lactose intolerant! :] Maybe it's made of soy?

    well thanks for checking it out but we dont have a Whole Foods in this area. i tried plain old lactose free ice cream once and it made me very sick so that kinda scared me away from trying much!

    I looked into it and the closest store that it says carries it, is over 50 miles away. :(

    hmmmm..... my husband loves ice cream and I eat it occasionally, but this sounds good. I will have to check this one out, especially that mint chocolate frosty :) Love this post, thanks!

    It's dairy free. You can eat it if you're lactose intolerant.

    I've tried 3 different flavors and I really, really wanted to like it. For me, it's just too far fetched from real ice cream- the taste, the ingredients, the texture, and the price. I do like it in a protein shake though. Sitting and eating it from a pint- not my cup
    of tea. I never liked Italian ice though and that's what the texture is like.

    For those in the UK try Yog available from Waitrose...its fat free & about 116 cals for 100gms....and not bad at all!

    Its a frozen yoghurt rather than a frozen whey protein like the Arctic Zero but its very good as a substitute for ice cream.

    Thank you for posting this! I <3 ice cream! I may have to head over to Whole Foods and pick up some today... :)

    Guess I'm one of the few who doesn't like it either. Can't even remember which flavors I tried but I did try a couple...I'd rather give up the calories and have a smaller amount of real ice cream.

    I just checked online and there is not one store within a 50 mile radius of me that sells it. :sad:

    WOAH WOAH WOAH is this a joke or something?!! I HAVE to get this if its only 150 calories per PINT! Can you order this online?? Also, do they have a pumpkin flavor??

    yes! they have pumpkin spice, its my favorite...and yes this tuff is like italian ice BUT like i said previously if you microwave it for 30 seconds it somehow turns to the consistency of reak ice cream :)) ABSOLUTELY AWESOME

    I've never eaten a whole pint of ice cream. Just doesn't sound good.

    I'd rather have 1/2 cup of GOOD ice cream (like the Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie I had last night) than a whole pint of "diet" ice cream. Ick.

    Probably because I am also lactose intolerant and allergic to soy and they make me really really sick.

    Pretty expensive but is delicious!!! I had the mint flavor and was happy :D

    I made my own protein ice cream and it tasted close to the same!

    I feel your pain, I'm pretty sure it isn't sold here in Guantanamo Bay either.
