Skip the Fat, Not the Dessert at TCBY
Oakland Park, FL - The fact that Ice Cream is known as an indulgent
non-healthy frozen treat is not a secret. However, TCBY has an alternative
solution that is just as indulgent in taste and texture, but you have the
luxury of skipping the fat, not the dessert.
Within the national chain of TCBY - The Country's Best Yogurt, you have the
option of having a decadent treat of 96% Fat Free, Nonfat and/or No-Sugar
Added varieties of Frozen Yogurt. We also have the Non-Dairy flavors of
Sorbet or Premium Ice Cream to round out the choices. TCBY has a variety of
flavors to tempt your taste buds and you have the personal option of adding
a candy or syrup to sweeten it up further "if you wish".
In a recent study conducted by the "Center for Science in the Public
Interest", they compared the desserts between Ben & Jerry's, Cold Stone
Creamery, Haagen-Dazs and TCBY. Many of the offerings contained enough
calories and saturated fat to be equivalent to eating a T-bone steak, Caesar
salad and a baked potato with sour cream. While this may be true with
anything when adding hot fudge, brownies, cookies, peanut butter, etc to
your treat, it must also be noted that a single scoop of premium ice cream
typically contains 250 to 300 calories and a half-day's worth of saturated
fat.
You can skip the fat and not the dessert when treating yourself to 96% Fat
Free TCBY Frozen Yogurt that only contains 140 calories and 2 grams of
saturated fat per serving. When starting with a base that's healthier, you
can add the other "stuff" with discretion.
