Arctic Zero Freebie Friday

Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrintE-mail

 

It’s Freebie Friday! Today may be your lucky day! Check in with us on Fridays and you could be the lucky one selected to win free prizes!

 


As kids, we looked forward to finishing our dinner every night since that meant it would be dessert time. For as long as we can remember, one of our favorite desserts was ice cream. Well, Neapolitan ice cream to be exact. We never could decide which we liked better—vanilla, chocolate or strawberry, so what could be better than getting all three?

 

 


To this day, we love our ice cream and frozen yogurt, but we have to admit that the calories that come along with it aren’t quite as appealing. After all, a pint of Ben and Jerry’s can set you back more than 1000 calories! In fact, many flavors will cost you nearly 1200 calories, which is the amount that some small, inactive women should get in their entire day!


So needless to say, when we recently discovered Arctic Zero, we were in utter disbelief that you can have an entire pint of this delicious treat for just 150 calories! And the flavo rs are divine—Cookies and Cream, Coffee, Chocolate, Vanilla Maple, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Mint Chocolate Cookie, Strawberry and Pumpkin Spice. You can’t go wrong! We are always excited when we find ways to lighten up our favorite treats. They’ve also just come out with vanilla, chocolate, strawberry and orange cream, chocolate-covered ice cream bars that are guilt-free and delish!


What indulgent dessert would you make over into something healthy if you could?? Tell us this (here or on Facebook) or what in-season fruit you would add to what flavor of Arctic Zero and you could be one of two lucky winners who will receive a variety pack of Arctic Zero including both a box of chocolate and vanilla popsicles as well as an array of pints! Wooohooo!
