    I posted this same topic a while ago :) Love this stuff. Ate some today actually. Vanilla Maple is the best in my opinion. I hate how sometimes it's hard as a rock and sometimes it's creamy like ice cream, but if you microwave it for like 20 seconds... that fixes the issue :)

    If I'm not eating real ice cream, then I do the frozen bananas.

    Take a banana and cut into slices and freeze. Then in a food processor, mix up the frozen banana slices (I mix it with 2 TBSP chocolate PB2 and 1 TBSP unsweetened cocoa powder for a chocolate, peanut butter, banana "ice cream"). Super yummy!

    I like the frozen greek yogurt. Super thick and rich and it's fat free... not so low on calories, but it's a good change.

    I would agree with the poster that said there is no replacement for ice cream. We love it, especially homemade!!!

    But... (for those that have an ice cream maker) yesterday I tried a peach frozen yogurt that was amazingly simple and good and far less fattening:

    1 can (approx. 15 oz.) peaches in their own juice (I actually used peaches in syrup, since that's what we had)
    2 cups low fat vanilla yogurt
    1/2 cup sugar

    Drain peaches and save 1/2 cup of the juice. Then put reserved juice and the rest of the ingredients in a blender until well mixed.

    Put it into your ice cream maker and freeze until firm. Makes 1 qt.

    Yum!

    McDonalds frozen yogurt cone. Only 150 calories and satisfies my sweet craving.

    go to the website, they will tell you what stores supply the ice cream. I tried the chocomint. I liked it enough to buy it again, but not as much as the real stuff

    I just bought a box of the blue bunny sweet freedom chocolate cones and it was the absolute WORST AND NASTIEST things I have ever attempted to eat! I usually get skinny cow and they are THE BOMB.COM! But the grocery store was out of them. So I saw the blue bunny and they almost looked identical on the box. I figured I would give them a chance, but it was horrific. I wouldn't even call it ice cream, it was more like someone defacated into my mouth. I will NEVER make that mistake again. I wouldn't make my worst enemy eat those things. They tried to give them to starving kids in Africa and the little African kids threw them back at the southern baptist missionaries. Blue bunny, shame on you!!
