Just a query here, as I have not yet seen this product.

I always found that the Breyers no sugar added ice cream (before the
fshion in low carb started) was grainy and rather unpleasnt. As the
term "effective carbs" is now used , probably just eliminating the sugar
alcohols carbs from the counting, is this a new formulation, or just a
relabelling of the old? I do have to count some of the sugar alcohols
in my calculations, as they can keep my bgs up as well as upset my
stomach.

5.19 a half gallon at Albertsons.. So 3.99 is decent..
As always YMMV and this is JMO

Considering the sorts of things that qualify for research grants, I can
imagine too easily a funded study to see the BG rise in monkeys an hour
after picking nits.

I sure wish I could find it for $1.88 I pay 3.68 And I love the stuff.
Tastes more like a soft serve I.C. to me.

It was a one time Super Sale for $1.88.

The sale price this week is $2.50.
When it is not on sale they want $4.50.
