Soy Dream Dreamwich

By: Tanya Taylor, PhD | Jan 8, 2007

Soy Dream Dreamwich is just excellent! The "Dreamwich" is an "ice cream" sandwich with two chocolate cake like layers and a thick vanilla (non dairy) ice cream layer in between, but the Dreamwich is made using soy milk instead of cows milk. Sometimes products made with soy tend to not taste as good as the real deal, BUT in this case, I couldn't tell the difference in taste and flavor between the Dreamwich and other ice cream sandwiches made from milk. The chocolate layers were sweet and chocolatey, and the ice cream was smooth and creamy. Actually - I did notice one difference - my lactose intolerant tummy doesn't start rumbling after I consumed one.

Whereas the Dreamwich is great on taste, it could stand to lose a few calories. One Dreamwich has 220 calories, 9 grams of total fat which is 14% of the recommended daily amount (RDA), 1.5 grams of total fat (7% of the RDA) and 32 grams of total carbohydrates which includes 15 grams of sugars and less than 1 gram of fiber.

I bought a single Dreamwich for $1.39 at Whole Foods Supermarket, but I am sure buying a pack works out to be cheaper (per sandwich). This is a great tasting option if you are lactose intolerant, or you are vegetarian.

If you can consume dairy products, another tasty, but lower calorie option is the Skinny Cow Low Fat Ice Cream Sandwich which has 140 calories and only 1.5 grams of fat [read the review].
