[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not like fanatic health nuts, just normal healthy maybe active joggers and kids might be student-athletes families. Also, do these sort of "normal healthy" families stock any sweets in the fridge/pantry? If yes, what sort?[/quote]

I grew up with parents who never ever stocked sweets in the house and we maybe had dessert 2xs a month. As a result none of us kids has a sweet tooth. We can all even detect sugar in foods that are supposed to be savory. With that said, I also dont bring sweets into the house (mainly because I dont have a taste for them and I'm the shopper) we probably have dessert 1x a week. Since this really has never been a part of our daily lives, my kids dont have many preferences. They like berries and whipped cream and Halo ice cream. They also oddly like orange flavored dark chocolate. [/quote]

I'm sorry but feeding your young kids Halo ice cream is disordered. That crap has a bunch of chemicals to make it "low calorie" regular full fat ice cream would actually be healthier. I don't understand people like you who think food laden with chemicals is better than actual real food just because of the calorie count.[/quote]

You should be sorry.  Did you get your nutrition degree from Trump University? I hope you enjoy patting yourself on the back for giving your kid full fat ice cream.[/quote]

NP here. Halo is horrible for you.

FDA -  “stevia leaf and crude stevia extracts are not considered GRAS [Generally Recognized As Safe] and do not have FDA approval for use in food.”

Erythritol - "chemical structure has been known to make digestion difficult ..."

There are several other ingredients that are questionable as well.

Compare that to ice cream.  I make ours - milk, cream, pure cane sugar, vanilla.

Milk makes digestion difficult for some too.   You’re in denial if you think homemade ice cream is some sort of health food.  “pure cane sugar” increases your chance of heart disease.  https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/eating-too-much-added-sugar-increases-the-risk-of-dying-with-heart-disease-201402067021[/quote]
