They've *really* outdone themselves this time (finally)!

Innocently strolling through the local grocery store, stop and peek at the ice cream, and find chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, and BUTTER PECAN! 5 net carbs per serving (7, if you have to count all sugar alcohols).

Wonderful texture, loaded with flavor, pecans are really tiny, but there's enough of them to make up for it. IT TASTES LIKE EDY'S GRAND BUTTER PECAN!!!!!!

Just a FYI, for next time you're digging for a snack.

want to be 175 at least

Want some more good news? You will soon see Atkins frozen fudge bars, chocolate swirl bars, chocolate-peanut butter bars, and another flavor I can't remember.

I've tried the other Atkins cups, and didn't like them.. They seem to have a "shortening" feeling to them after you swallow.. Didn't have that problem with Butter Pecan..

I've tried the Carb Smart bars - those set me off on a binge like there's no tomorrow, so I nixed them. (Not sure why those did, and other ice creams don't).

I found the butter pecan cups at Pick & Save (not sure what that equates to in other states)...

Chocolate peanut butter? I'm betting that one would do me in, too. Maybe I can make someone else buy them, and try one of theirs.. This way there's none at my house.

Are we on the same planet? I must be shopping at the wrong grocery stores. Or Cali is just limited. I have never ran across any of these brand of ice creams. But will continue to look though.

They JUST got the butter pecan in my area.. Literally, within days. I was just there 2 days ago, and complaining because they don't have any "flavors" of ice cream.. A dream come true would be mint chocolate chip..

I thought the atkins chocolate was pretty good, but now that I have tried the breyers, there is no comparison. I have only tried the vanilla breyers so far, but it is heaven. There is a problem with portion control because it does come in the big containers.

The Atkins is good. But I wanted to have more control over what goes into my IC, so I got an IC maker for my b-day in August. I found Keto IC mix at my local health food store (they ordered it for me) I made a batch the other night...............HEAVEN. It is sweet, but tastey. I made Atkins brownies. So I have been desserting on brownies and IC. WOOHOO!!!! The consistency of the Keto IC is perfect. I am going to make a batch with cocoa powder, maybe today, so I have chocolate. I am going to add nut to it too. Also, Blue Bunny make a splenda sweetened icecream bar, fudgciclelike and the other type with the chocolate shell and vanilla IC in the middle. Gotta practice self-control with those, 'cuz they are REALLY good. So checkout your local stores for Blue Bunny too. It's a good alternative.

"A little knowledge is a dangerous thing."

OK, you guys are making me very jealous! And hungry!

I've only the found the Chocolate and Vanilla Atkins cups here in NY, and haven't even been lucky enough to find them in supermarkets. Only Trader Joe and BJ's so far.

I haven't seen the Breyer's either, but I'll definitey be on the lookout. It's too bad that these things aren't released for sale all over at the same time.
