Rebel Creamery has a Mint Chip ice cream, and I'm gonna check it out right after
these green things slide in from the side and conceal my face. Hey guys!
Welcome to A.D. Keto. My name is Aaron. This is the channel where you can watch a
weird dad work his way through the ketogenic diet. I do some keto eating
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, make sure
you're on Notification Squad by clicking the bell. All right, everybody. It is Rebel
Creamery's Mint Chip. It's the third flavor that I'm checking out from them.
They have five altogether. We're at the halfway point. I do like some mint chip. Not really my
favorite of flavors, but I like a good one. I like a GOOD mint chip. And I think
this is gonna really hit the spot for me tonight, cuz I just had a really spicy
curry dinner. So I'm excited to have a little bit of mint chip ice cream to
sort of... quell the flames. Anyway, if you've been here before, you know that I
break my ice cream reviews down into four parts. The first part I talk about
the texture. That's the most important part to me. What does it feel like coming
out of the pint? What's it feel like... wussit feel like they take a bite...
What's it feel like once I take a bite? The second part of the review is the
taste. What does it taste like, based on my expectations? Here's what I'm
thinking. Rebel Creamery has had really enjoyable, real-tasting flavors, that have
been slightly less intense than flavors from... you know, their cohorts in the low-
carb high fat ice cream... space. Space? Man, that sounds so terrible. I'm expecting mint chip, but I'm not
expecting to be blasted in the face with mint chip. If their chocolate flavor
and their vanilla flavor are anything to go by, they tend to be a little bit
more on the subtle side of things, so we'll see how that turns out. Then I
talk about the carbs. And again, rebel Creamery knows what it's doing when it
comes to carbs. They're targeting... their target market is...
me. It's people doing the ketogenic diet. So it's very low carbs. And then the
fourth part of the review is the ingredients, where I just run down the
contents, and we see what's in this thing. So let's get into it.
Take it off...already like... I like what I see there. It's... you know, got some little mint
chippies. This has been out of my freezer for about 20 minutes. Maybe a little bit
more. 20, 21, 22, 23 minutes. If I keep talking here, we can get it up to 25. But there
is what it looks like. Let's check out the texture. If I can get it exposed
properly. Someday guys, I'm gonna have a real camera, not just my phone.
Hmm. I like it.
Substantial chips. That's a pretty big chip for...you know, compared to what you
can find like... in halo top or whatever. You get these little specks. But these are
pretty decent-sized chunks of chocolate in here. Also, the flavor -- relative to how
strong their vanilla and chocolate flavors were -- I'd say this is a little
bit more intense on the mint chip, which is fine by me. Yeah. Very, very nice. And
again, you know -- you've got sort of a fatty...fatty thing going on there, which is what these guys
are all about. Okay. Let's check out our nutrition information. As always, serving
size is half a cup. So four servings per container.
The thing to watch out for with these guys -- the only thing really to keep an
eye on if you're if you're keto, and you're having this ice cream -- is the
calorie count. It is high. But that's to be expected with with this stuff. 160
calories per serving, which to my math, is 640 calories for the pint. So be very
careful. Or not. I mean, I haven't eaten a ton of food today.
I have plenty of room for this. I would love to eat this whole thing. But now I
have someone else in the house who's doing keto, and she demands half of this
pint. So it shall be. So that's the calories. Total fat 15 grams, saturated fat 8 grams,
cholesterol 65 milligrams, sodium 25 milligrams, protein 2 grams. Total
carbohydrate 11 grams, dietary fiber 3, sugar alcohol 7. That's 1 net carb per
serving, and I think they... they round up their numbers, so total carbs is probably
like 10 point something. Dietary fiber's probably like 2 point
something. But they round up, so while the decimals are not on here, it is one...
around 1.5 grams of carbs per serving, which gives us that magical number on
the front, there. 6 grams per pint. Incredible. Let's take a look at the
ingredients, here. The ingredients are cream, water,
erythritol, chocolate flakes -- and then they list the
ingredients of the chocolate flakes. They are coconut oil, cocoa, erythritol,
sunflower lecithin, salt, dutched cocoa, natural vanilla flavor, and monk fruit.
Then back to the main ingredients: chicory root fiber, egg yolks, milk
protein isolate, vegetable glycerin, natural mint flavor, Peruvian carob gum,
guar gum, and monk fruit. The end. That's it. Again, that seems like a long list, but
a lot of it was... you know, just listing the ingredients of the chips. Should I
take one more bite? I think I shall. Shocker.
Yeah, stronger in flavor than their chocolate or their vanilla. And it's
really good. Man, look at the size of these! Look at the size of these chunks of chocolate. (five-second rule.)
This table is disgusting. Oh, man. The chips are really good. I just had a
really sweet-tasting chip only. So guys, uh... 3-for-3 so far. Rebel is really
hitting it out of the park for me. At the end of this, After the next couple of
flavors that I do, I will rank their first 5 flavors. This is quite good.
Probably the best tasting mint chip I've had.
I just got a series of texts from my wife. I'm gonna screenshot these, because
they are pretty funny. Ha! She's so great. Yes, more than half of
this is going to go to my wife Sara. This is really good stuff.
Rebel Creamery so far 3-for-3, as far as I'm concerned. Guys, again, I will leave a
link in the description for Rebel's product request form. You can bring that
to your local supermarket, bring it to the customer service desk. The one thing
that I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, which I didn't get to update in the
review of chocolate, is that their promotion, where if the store eventually
ends up carrying Rebel, that you could get coupons for two free pints. Austin
got in touch with me after the first review came out, and he said, "Ooh, I meant to
tell you -- we're... we're not doing that two free pints thing. It would just be a
logistical nightmare." So they have removed that page from the website, but
it would still really behoove you, I think, to print that form out and deliver
it. Even without the promise of a reward. These guys are doing things that are
very exciting. So let's do our best to get them in stores. So let me know what
you guys think of Mint Chip. I really, really enjoy it,
even though I'm not a huge mint chip guy. I'd love to hear what you have to say
about it down in the comments. That's gonna wrap it up for this review, guys. I
hope you have fantastic day, and we'll see you next
time.
