Tropicana Swirls Vanilla IceCream Sorbet

By: Tanya Patrice | Feb 14, 2005

tropicana swirl sorbet This is like vanilla ice cream on a stick or actually, "reduced fat, no sugar added vanilla ice cream on a stick." Somehow, it doesn't sound as enticing when you say it like that. Still, those swirls look really pretty on the box, and I was excited to try it. I wasn't disappointed at all, since this sorbet was umm-ummm-licious yummy I must say, this was my first sorbet experience and it was creamy, and as sweet as you expected it to be. My one complaint is that it tended to get ice crystals formed on the outside of the bar but this didn't really detract from the taste, and was just mildly annoying.

Nutritionally speaking, this sorbet had 60 calories, 3 grams of total fat (1 gram is saturated), and 3 grams sugar (plus 3 g sugar alcohols) - not bad at all. One bar makes a pretty good snack for you or the kids. I love, Love this snack, and it's very filling for the 60 calories. I wouldn't even feel guilty eating 2 of these at once.

My final word is 2thumbsup (see how I made that one word). 2 thumbsup

I've seen them in Kroger, but your best bet is to contact your local grocery stores.
