Capped at One Cup

The good thing about Ben & Jerry's cute single serve containers of ice cream is that you are unlikely to eat more than one.  The bad thing is that the half cup of ice cream in every container of the Vanilla, Cherry Garcia, or Chocolate Fudge Brownie delivers around 200 calories and 8 grams of bad fat. Artery alert: Incoming!
 
If you want your ice cream portion controlled, try Breyers Double Churned Cookies & Cream or Vanilla Fudge Swirl, which comes in 100 calorie cups (with just 1 gram of bad fat).
 
When it comes to ice cream, smaller is better . . .  unless it's too small. Take bite size, chocolate coated Breyers Ice Cream Poppers or Dreyer's Dibs. They are not individually wrapped, so there is nothing to make you stop at one, or two . . . or even the 26 piece serving listed on the label, with its 400 or so calories and full day's worth of bad fat.
