Ice Cream Chronicles

I think that both sorbet and gelatto are healthier than ice cream. That is, if one is to believe the Food Network. However, as with every food the key is to just, as my friend Mary Francis said, "everything in moderation including moderation." I have never found a better phrase to live by. I don't actually know who said it in real life first, but I know she said it all the time and seemed to enjoy her life.

You should be able to check the fat and calories content on all these kinds of products. Sorbets are low fat as they are watery and not creamy. Anything containing cream is fattening with lots of calories. Ice lollies aren't so bad, something like Solero and Twister are pretty good. Most brands do low fat versions you can look out for.
