Some things are just fine as diet food. One of the nutrisystem pizza's actually cures my craving for pizza. The fake candy bars are also good. The peppermint patty cookie is better than the real thing. But ice cream should never be substituted. Yech.
Lately I've been craving root beer floats. My favorite use for ice cream. Fake ice cream? Ugh!
ReplyDeleteFake candy bar? Fake ice cream? Oh Lord, not for me! LOL

Ice cream substitute?!?!!?! No way!!!! Ice cream is just milk and fruit so good for you - and I'm sticking to that notion! Yay for lovely ice cream (vanilla!!). Take care

Not to be contradictory or anything, but I did find a wonderful ice cream substitute.
ReplyDeleteTake frozen bananas and mash them in the food processor until they are creamy. (Every time I do this there is a point where I say: "I don't think it will work." But if you mash them long enough it always works.)
This is a fabulous recipe because you can add, or not add anything you like. And you can eat a giant bowl for breakfast and not feel guilty.
I discovered I really like the peanutbutter/chocolate "Skinny Cow" ice cream sandwiches. They are technically "diet" I guess, but they're really good.
ReplyDeleteI agree, some things are only good with all the calories in tact :)
I haven't had ice cream in so long... Not since I started working out. But yeah. Nothing like the REAL deal.
ReplyDeleteI made my own ice cream once and man that was even better than the real ice cream bought in the shop. So creamy mmmmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteMy first job was at Rose Glen Dairy, where I scooped the homemade ice cream and made hot fudge sundaes and such. Best job I ever had!
