    I have some in my freezer right now! It's good, but can't really replace ice cream imo. The texture is way different, but it works for my cravings at least sometimes!

    I found vanilla cream sticks swirled with orange, cherry or raspberry. 14 cal 0 sugar 0fat. Sweetened with splenda (I'm not asking for a splenda lecture) I'm telling you, it is so tasty! Light and active is the brand name-I found them at Aldis

    Another amazing thing (you can only get it at Whole Foods currently) is Almond-licious Ice Supreme. I love the pecan!

    Nice find skinnyd! I do alternates sometimes, but there are times I *do* allow myself REAL Ice Cream. Usually about once a month... but then and ONLY then!! :))

    Personally, I found Arctic Zero completely lacking in taste, texture, satisfaction factor, everything. I am still looking for a substitute for ice cream, but until I find something good I will just have an ice cream day every once in a while.

    i live in wichita, ks and the only place i've been able to find it is at a local health food/organic store. i think the arctic zero website has a store locator that will tell you where it is sold in your area. good luck!

    Another great one is mixing some Nutella (for those of you who like it) with bananas. Zap it til the mix is smooth in a blender, freeze it and you have delicious AND low calorie ice cream! :drinker:

    If you want the actual recipe, just let me know.

    I haven't tried that, but I do eat the blue bunny sweet freedom ice creams. They are no sugar added and either fat free or 1/2 the fat and are between 50 to 100 cals for 1/2 cup. They taste awesome and have many flavors, I buy mine from wal-mart and my fave is the butter pecan.

    Ty for sharing :))

    if you need something more ice-creamy, I like the "churned" ice cream/frozen yogurts. They have lots less calories & fat. The Wal-mart brand, choc flavor is inexpensive and yummy.

    I tried some of this - how could you NOT hope it would be a delicious and low-cal substitute? - but I found I really didn't like it. I got the coffee flavor, and I think it's pretty obvious taste and texture wise that it's a diet food. I'd much rather have a tiny bite of something like So Delicious's dairy free coconut based ice creams, or make my own frozen yogurt with 0% Greek yogurt!

    braums has a carbwatch ice cream sold at your local braums store in different flavors and also dryers, beyers? ?? has low carb ice cream bars and stuff in the tub. Blue bunny sells sugar free kind in different flavors. I prefer cones. Im not a big fan of ice cream even though I am a sugar addict. very odd. Regular ice cream is a sugar/dairy devil. Dairy makes me bloat like a whale.

    I love ice cream and have a hard time finding good tasting substitues but something I will make if I'm craving a treat, something similar to an above post, one lg banana, 1 or 2 T of crunchy PB, 1 scoop of chocolate or vanilla protein powder if you want, blend and freeze, sometimes I'll mix in dark choc chips or a spoonful of nutella, it's not ice cream but it sometimes does the trick!!

    False. There is no ice cream replacement.

    Gelato is gelato

    Frozen yogurt is frozen yogurt

    Sorbet is sorbet.

    Peel and freeze bananas. Run them through a juicer with a good motor or through a Yonana's machine. The browner (more rip) the bananas are, the better. Can also add other fruits in the same method (berries, mangos, peaches, etc). That's been my ice cream substitute for years.
