A very few Ben & Jerry's flavors are available in little 1/2 cup containers. They even include a rather worthless (imo) little plastic spoon ... :lol: ! Ice cream has never been a trigger food for me (my teeth are cold sensitive), so I keep a few of these little containers in the big freezer in my garage for days when I find I have a major deficit in my calorie intake (a problem I have.) So far, I've only found 3 flavors packaged like this, but there may actually be more.
I definitely would not advise this, though, for anyone for whom ice cream is a trigger food.

once upon a time ben & jerry's put out a line called "carb karma" that was about 4g net carbs per serving... they even had a vanilla swiss almond. the consistency was more like ice milk, but it was still good. they've since discontinued that line... damn them :(.

Make your own lowcarb icecream!!
Here is a recipe someone on another board posted
"Ziploc" Vanilla Ice Cream
1 tablespoon artificial sweetener
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup Heavy Cream
6 tablespoons Table Salt
3 cups Ice
1 Sandwich Sized Ziploc Bag
1 Gallon Sized Ziploc Bag
In the sandwich sized ziploc, combine the sugar substitute, vanilla extract and heavy cream. Seal the bag and shake lightly to mix ingredients.
In the gallon sized ziploc bag, add 3 cups of ice (or fill half the bag with ice)and add 6 tablespoons of table salt.
Place the sealedl sandwich sized bag into the gallon bag and seal the gallon bag.
Shake the entire contents for at least 4 minutes (shake longer for harder ice cream).
Once desired hardness has been achieved, remove smaller bag and rinse throughly with cold water (if you miss this step, you may wind up with salty ice cream!)
Makes 1/2 cup of icecream and gives you a short workout with the shaking too!!
