recall he had recipes for sweet desserts like LC cheese cake and ice

more variety and a lot of it has gotten quite good. The Breyer's Ice
Cream I find excellent. That's the Carb Smart one with low net carb,
not the zero version, which doesn't taste that good. The only better
one is Eddy's Grand.

While I agree in general regarding Breyers Carb Smart Ice Creams (4
net carbs tastes good, 0 net carbs taste bad), the quality also seems
to vary from flavor to flavor. The chocolate is my favorite so far.
I therefore expected their Chocolate Chip Mint to also be good, but
found it disappointing. However, here in the western USA the regional
brand Dreyers has also come out with a low carb line, and their
Chocolate Chip Mint is very good. So as long as the Breyers/Dreyers
thing doesn't get you confused, you can find good CCM.


Follow-up: From what I've been able to find on the net, Dreyer's and
Eddy's Grand are apparently 2 regional names for the same product. So
I would concur with the high opinion expressed above about Eddy's
Grand, it's just called Dreyer's (Carb Benefit) out here.
