Breyers® Light
vanilla-chocolate-strawberry light ice cream
Dieters should
not be looking at desserts at all. This 1.75 quart carton claims “1/2 the fat”,
so one can tell at a glance that it is made with skim milk rather than whole
milk/cream. It still contains processed sugars.
side panel:
There are
FOURTEEN 1/3 cup servings in this carton. Each serving represents 100 calories,
2g bad fat, 16g carbs, and 13g sugar. People eating this ice cream right out of
the carton instead of measuring out a single portion may inadvertently consume
several servings, multiplying the fat, carbs, and sugar amounts.
The first four
ingredients are milk, skim milk, sugar, and corn syrup (another form of sugar).
Ice cream of any kind should be off limits for dieters except as an occasional
treat once you have reached your ideal weight.
