If I have it in my freezer it's my treat of choice before bedtime. I try to only buy it when I buy groceries and not make any special trips to have it in the house or I would eat it all the time. So do you eat it everyday or just for a treat?

my family constantly has it in the freezer and we usually have several different types.. different moods get different kinds... i dont eat ice cream everyday... i guess im really averaging out that i eat ice cream every 2 - 3 days... i dont consider it a treat unless we go out for ice cream to the ice cream parlours then its more so a treat than anything.. at home its just food for me

i love to eat ice cream. however aside from having too much calories, i cannot afford to eat ice cream everyday since it will costs me a lot of bucks... so i just eat ice cream occasionally, just to treat myself

I use to eat it everyday but now only eat frozen yogurt once in awhile. Need to keep my cholesterol level in check otherwise I would have the richest, fatest, creamiest french vanilla I could buy. I do like ice cream loaded with chocolate sauce, hot fudge or strawberries. We always have vanilla frozen yogurt in the freezer since my husband eats every evening after dinner.

no... idon't eat ice cream all the time.. just on occasions like birthday and anniversaries or when im with special friends. eating ice cream all the time, for me, makes eat an every day ordinary food which makes it dull.. so i indulge on it only occasionally

I only have ice cream in the summer and I usually have it only once. I go to Baskin and Robbins and get two scoops, one is French Vanilla and the other is Strawberry.

I like ice cream and I eat is as a treat only. My late husband ate it every night before he went to bed; I could never eat that much ice cream.

I shouldn't eat it every night. That is why I try to control when I buy it! lOL

Because of its fat and sugar content, I find Ice cream as one of those food items you must eat once or twice a week. Just like eggs which I eat 2 a week, i like just taking icecream once a week

i love ice cream but i dont eat it everyday. I guessed every twice a month or every occasion only. I have to watch for my sugar count as we have diabetes on our blood and besides i think its not really good or health eating it everyday and i have to watched also my diet.

we would only eat ice cream when there's a special occasion. because it would be an expensive habit to eat ice cream everyday. ^__^ but there's a cheap ice cream we could buy everyday but its not always available here. such ice creams are sold by vendors who would go from neighborhood to neighborhood so unless they go to our place, we wouldn't be able to buy one. ^__^

That's a good way to buy it though so it's not sitting in the freezer!

I would love to eat ice cream everyday but I am allergic to dairy products. I found an ice cream made of soy milk...it is just like maple nut ice cream...delicious but it's kinda expensive. I was so happy to find a substitute...it is called Soy Dream and it's a butter pecan flavor...a wonderful treat for us who have the milk/dairy allergy. I have also found sour cream and cream cheese so I don't feel so bad...I use them in all of my recipes...makes it a little easier and also good for me. Where there's a will, there's a way. I went without for 7 years.

I love ice cream and when I have it in the house it is hard for me not to have a bowl a night until the carton is gone,lol so I try not to keep it in the house too often.

I do too... and try to buy it only when I do the big grocery shopping! Or I would have an ice cream butt.
