I’ve noticed that most of my posts today are centered around food. That will teach me to post when I’m hungry. Ha Ha. I haven’t had lunch yet but I am seriously craving ice cream. Specifically the Triple Chocolate Chip ice cream bars from Breyers Smooth & Dreamy product line. They are oh so good!
I’m lactose intolerant but I love ice cream and cheese. I can’t give them up. Most of the time I’m fine. If I have too much they I pay the price later.
Have you tried any of the products from the Breyers Smooth & Dreamy line? The products include:
- Chocolate Caramel Brownie
- Vanilla Caramel Chip
- Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
- Chocolate Covered Strawberry
- Vanilla Fudge Brownie
- Triple Chocolate Chip
I know that I shouldn’t really eat ice cream when I am watching my weight but the Breyers Smooth & Dreamy ice creams are too hard to resist. I don’t feel overly guilty since the ice creams are around 160 calories or less and contain 4-6 grams of fat. I watch my fat grams very carefully and by the end of the day I usually have plenty of unused fat grams to spare. It’s the calories I keep track of the most. At around 160 calories I don’t feel guilty over indulging in one of the ice creams.
My favorite is the Triple Chocolate however the Vanilla Fudge Brownie is very good too.
I like that the ice cream doesn’t taste low in fat or calories. My husband is always the first to complain if something tastes low in calorie. He believe things low in calories and low in fat mean low in taste. Of course he doesn’t have to struggle with his weight.
I have had reduced fat and calorie ice cream before that tasted so bad I think liking the underside of my shoe would taste better. From the two flavors I have tried so far I am more then pleased with the Smooth & Dreamy ice creams.
The only “down side” is that not all the flavors are available in all markets, or at least around here. I shop at two different stores (one more for cold cuts then food shopping) and did not notice much of an assortment of flavors for the Breyers Smooth & Dreamy. It’s unfortunate because I would love to try the other flavors. I’m dying to try the Chocolate Covered Strawberry! That sounds oh-so-good.
Look for Breyers Smooth & Dreamy at your local grocery store. If you happen to try the Chocolate Covered Strawberry please comment on this post or e-mail me and tell me what you think abot the flavor. I’m curious to know.

Oh my gosh, I am SO jealous! I am lactose intolerant also but no amount of pills can protect me from the angry wrath of dairy. I can’t even tolerate a bite. I *attempted* about 1/4 of leftover chili cheese dog today after one of my children didn’t finish and even took two lactaids. The stomach cramps started within 15 minutes. I swear I had FOUR bites of food.
Thankfully I have discovered rice milk and rice “cream” and it fills the craving but fake sour cream just doesn’t work.
