Taste test: Klondike Slim-a-Bear

klondike slim-a-bear

It's "98% fat free." It's diet food.I know. I know, but sometimes you just have a tiny scoop of hope in the bottom of your heart that maybe, just maybe, this might be the one. This Klondike Slim-a-Bear just might be the one light thing to save your get-ready-for-Spring self, and taste good, too.

To begin with, ice cream sandiwches in general aren't exactly gourmet desserts, particularly since they are almost always out of a grocery store package from some mass-marketed frozen-treats producer. But I have a soft spot for them, I guess the same way most people have soft spot for something that takes them back to thier childhood.

These were, to be quite honest, not great, but not all that bad for being 98% fat free and 130 calories each. The chocolate cake part tasted exactly the same as any other ice cream sandwich. The fat free part must have been in the ice cream, which had the same consistency of ice cream that had completey melted then re-frozen. But if I think about it, I think that's the same consistency it was when I ate them off an ice cream truck when I was eight. I just didn't care as much back then.
