Do you think low fat ice cream is really low fat????

I like fat on my ice cream. I would no want to eat low fat on anything. Cheers!!

If you eat a lot of something, it's going to make you fat, whether it tastes good or it tastes like crap, lol. I'd rather eat less of something that tastes good, rather than to eat a lot of something that tastes horrible. For example, Carob. My Mom used to buy it a lot to convince us kids that it was 'chocolate', but you know what? It wasn't chocolate, and Mom wound up eating all the carob!

I think the sugar free ice cream tastes good because they use aspartame which isn't very good. So you might as well just buy the regular ice cream. Now, I'm not an expert, so I don't know what goes into low fat ice cream. Why is it low fat? Maybe they use less milk or cream? You're right though, if you want healthy ice cream, choose sorbets or frozen yogurt. :)

Hey, Hm...in my opinion I don't really think so. Wanna know why? Even though they might have reduced that fat in it, their is still fat in it. Has anyone heard of artificial sweetner? This acts in a similar way like sugar but is reall really worse than sugar. Because it is artificial it is just like sugar only worse since it is artificial. Maybe this artificial sweetner or whatever they put in MIGHT also have fat somehow. Besides this, I have no idea on what else they can add in it that can make it sweet other than this artificial sweetner! Hope this helped as I didn't look at what other people wrote :D

Hi,sorry i do not know the answer.I found the answer by the search engine right now,but got nothing. Maybe i had gotten a wrong key to search.

Formerly I would select the food with low calorie, but now I don't do that. I consider that all food would gain weight just you eat them no matter it is high calorie or low. The only way to lose weight is to eat nothing. It is my exprience. I always failed even though I ate food with low fat, because I took much. But last winter I didn't care the food I ate was low fat or not, I just took less food, and then the weight I lost was about 3kg.

I depends upon the type of ice cream.Ice cream is made by stirring, while freezing, a pasteurized mix of one or more dairy ingredients like milk, concentrated fat-free milk, cream, condensed milk sweetening agents, flavorings, stabilizers, emulsifiers and optional egg or egg yolk solids or other ingredients. Federal standards require ice cream to contain a minimum of 10% milk fat (about 7 grams (g) of fat per 1/2 cup serving) and 20% total milk solids by weight. Some premium ice creams contain 16% milk fat.I think this low fat is not harmful to our health.But any ice cream in large quantity can create health problems.

I'm not sure what type you have tried, but most the time when I try the non-fat or low-fat at a ice cream parlor, I find it doesn't taste as good as the real thing. That's how I know it's low fat :) The place in Macy's sells frozen yogurt which is fat free and tastes awesome with fruit, I often don't believe that can be fat free. Who knows what mystery ingredients they put into it, but it's good.

It must be since it isn't very good. sugar itself doesn't contain any fat. it is the cream and other ingredients that they add into ice cream that give it it's fat content.

Hi, I am not sure but I have tasted supposidly low fat ice crean and it did not taste too well. Maybe an ingredient was added to make it taste like it was low fat. I never get low fat anymore just watch the size of the portion I comsume.
