How long does it take you to eat a pint of ice cream?

[Anonymous]

I’m overweight but I usually only eat a little ice cream at a time, so 5-6 servings over 1-2 weeks if I have any (and DH didn’t get into it). I only eat Ben & Jerry’s, usually Cherry Garcia. I’m more likely to eat a PB&J at midnight.

Kind of like a bottle of wine. Two servings. One that is 2/3s of the container, and the the next night (or afternoon with ice cream) the rest.

Like your husband, I make it last four servings. I have a serving every 3-4 days. I am trying to lose weight (20 lb down, 20 to go!) so I like to have an occasional treat, and I savor every bite.

It depends on what it is! For some reason if ice cream has yummy bits in it, like those fudge fish in Phish Food, I can eat a pint in one day because I just get to into finding the chunks. But just plan coffee ice cream lasts me about a week. I don’t think about servings, just yummy bites when I’m in the mood.

A month or so?

Yes! I also hunt for the tasty bits and then polish off the container in one sitting.

2-3 servings. I don’t share and eat it right out of the carton.

Family of 4, it will stay in there for a couple weeks.

2 servings, but it will take me a month or two to eat both servings.

Months. When I crave ice cream it’s just a few spoonfuls. I wish there were a smaller portion.

For a pint?

Typically, 3.

2 if I feel like the 3rd portion will be disappointing the next night because I've left myself too little

In our house, we call this spelunking

Haha yes, so relatable!

I allow myself one a week. If I go through it on the first day, that’s it. Usually I take a bit on 3-4 different nights. Also, most of them aren’t a full pint any more.
