Tropics

Hello Friends.

Remember when ice cream was forbidden if you were trying to lose weight? Thankfully, that is no longer the case. Seriously, how long will someone stay committed to a plan that forbids ice cream consumption?

Today, we have so many options in the freezer case.

LOW SUGAR
 SUGAR FREE
 LOW FAT
 FAT FREE
 SUGAR AND FAT FREE

There are also many more flavor selections, including Moose Track which is one of my favorites.
Have you seen these? Edy’s has two limited edition tropical flavors for summer, Coconut Pineapple and Black Raspberry. I was so excited to hear about these two new flavors so close to my upcoming ice cream social. I was going to buy a tub of each and have a taste testing at work. At only 100 calories per ½ cup serving, I figured no one would blow their diet during the tasting.

Unfortunately, when I went on Edy’s website and searched for locations selling it, I only found it in the Dallas and San Diego areas. So, have any of you who live in the Lone Star or Golden States tried these new flavors? If so, I’d love to hear what you thought.
Don’t forget to join me on National Ice Cream Day, July 17, for an Ice Cream Social link party. Link posts with recipes, memories, photos, or poetry associated with this frozen treat. You can also link any frozen dessert, gelato, sorbet, sherbet, popsicle or yogurt recipe. There just may be a special treat for those who join in the fun.

MAKE IT A GREAT DAY!

    I'm afraid I have to have Breyer's old fashioned ice cream when I indulge. The others are okay but it is a small treat in my life so I I like to eat what I like. Have fun on ice cream day....lol...

    Not fair to post about ice cream where people might read it before breakfast!.....now nothing will satisfy but a scoop of French vanilla with nuts and chocolate sauce. Oh dear......

    I love Moosetracks as well. Velvet makes a good one. I am ready for your ice cream social. We took the girls to the Ole Mill yesterday.

    I'd love to know if the sugar and fat free ice creams still taste like ice cream as they seems to be missing the best ingredients. There is nothing as good a Hagan Daas :)

    I'm reading this at 8:45 am and am seriously thinking of raiding my freezer to find the little baby Nestle drumsticks for breakfast. They're only 120 calories or so, so that would be a diet breakfast, right?

    I live 350 miles from Dallas so doubt if we have those flavors here yet. Will sure be watching for them, tho.

    You say you get restless in winter...wintertime is my favorite of all seasons so I feel GREAT all winter long. I love the cold, the fires in the fireplace, snuggly throws, hot cocoa with tons of marshmallow cream...I love everything about winter. :))

    I've had my ICE CREAM post ready for a week..I keep adding to it and it's gonna take an hour to read it...well, maybe not an HOUR...but is IS getting long. :))

    Hello La,

    Best greetings, Johanna
