Well, I'm gonna give Arctic Zero one more shot, right after this. Hey, guys. Welcome
to A.D. Keto. My name is Aaron. This is the channel where I talk about the
ketogenic diet. I do some keto food vlogs, I do some keto product reviews, and I do
some keto recipes. If this is your first time here, please consider subscribing,
and if you do, be sure to click the bell icon so you get a notification whenever
I upload new content. So a couple weeks ago, I did a review of Arctic Zero's
Brownie Blast flavor. You can find that review right up there. Suffice it to say,
I did not...I was not a fan. If you've seen my reviews before, you know I do a three-
part review. The first part is the texture.
What's it feel like? Is it easy to get out of the container? The second part is the
taste, and the third part is the carb situation. And Arctic zero Brownie Blast
failed miserably in two of those three areas, at least in the pint I had.
The texture of Brownie Blast was :{
Frosty as all get-out. The taste... Brownie Blast was Brownie Whisper, at best. Like,
it was not tasty at all. Carbs were okay, if I remember correctly. I don't really
remember what the carb situation was, actually. So I didn't eat any more of it
after the review. I brought it upstairs to wifey, Sara, and she said, "You know
what? This is actually pretty good." I was like, "What?" She's like, "Yeah, once you let
it melt, it doesn't taste bad at all." So I had another bite of it.
I couldn't tell a huge difference. Maybe I was just being jaded and difficult, but
I decided to give Arctic Zero one more shot, with this flavor: Cookie Dough Chip.
And it has been sitting out for roughly half an hour. I got it out of my freezer
about a half an hour ago. So I'm gonna give this a go. Like I said, texture, taste,
carbs. Those are the three things I'm most concerned with. Okay, here's the
messaging: "Arctic Zero - Enjoy at its creamiest by thawing your pint for 10 to
15 minutes before digging in. Can't wait? microwave your pint for 30 seconds." So
it's been twice as long as that. It's been about a half an hour that this
thing's been sitting out. Again, papery... papery lid, which is fine. You know, more... maybe
environmentally friendly. There it is. That is cookie dough chip. That's what it
looks like, and I can tell that the sides of this pint are a little mushy. Soft. So
let's see how we do here. That's pretty good. I mean, pretty soft. It's still
really frosty, you guys. Like, even though it came out of here okay,
it's... it's kind of... it's the same issue I had with that other pint. It's
just kind of like... a gooey, slushy / gooey sort of odd consistency to it.
Really not a fan of the texture of Arctic Zero. And again, the taste is... I'm
just gonna give it one more shot, here. I feel like I'm straining to taste it. I do love my
subtle ice creams, but I'm searching for some taste. It's pretty bland, really.
Bland and disappointing, cuz I do like my cookie dough. Let me take a quick look at the
nutrition. We've got: serving size is half a cup. As usual, four servings per container.
75 calories per serving, so 300 calories in the pint. 2.5 grams of fat, 3 grams of
protein, and 11 total carbs, 3 dietary fiber, and 1 insoluble fiber. So that's 11
minus 3 is 8, minus 1 is 7. 28 grams of carbs in this pint. So not the best. Looking at the
ingredients here: purified water, whey protein concentrate, milk, organic cane
sugar, chicory root, sugarcane fiber cookie dough (which is unbleached
enriched flour, wheat flour, malted barley flour), niacin, reduced iron, thiamine...
thiiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid, cane sugar, brown cane sugar, butter,
cream, salt water, sea salt, vanilla extract, sodium bicarbonate, baking soda,
tapioca flour, dark chocolate chips (which are cane sugar, chocolate liqueur...
chocolate liqueur, cocoa butter, organic vanilla extract, then they've got guar gum,
xanthan gum, natural flavours, sea salt, monk fruit concentrate. I'm out of
breath, y'all. That's a lot of stuff. I mean, nothing is like SUPER-terrible in there.
It does say that it's GMO-free, rbst-free, lactose-free, low glycemic index, low fat.
But just not doing it for me. this may be the coup de gras for Arctic Zero as far
as this guy is concerned. I had high hopes that this would be at least a
little bit better than Bar Brownie... Barney Blast... Brownie Blast, but feeling the
same way about this one. Let me know if I'm missing the magic flavor of Arctic
Zero. Which one you think is the best? Because both of the pints that I've had,
to this point, are just not doing it for me. So that's it for this review. I hope
you enjoyed it, guys. Let me know what flavor of Arctic zero I should try, if I
try any others. What's the best one? What could... kind of win me over? Let me know.
What you think about this, if you've had it? I really appreciate you watching. I
hope you have a fantastic day, and I will see you next time.
aye aye aye aye aye all right um
