To that end, Halo Top (which retails for about $5 per pint) is succeeding in spades. Then again, Halo Top’s goal isn’t to replace fruits and veggies it’s to give diet-conscious consumers “an option to eat ice cream again,” says Woolverton. While those ingredients are fine to consume, they’re not exactly paragons of nutrition. Halo Top, which is also enriched with protein, maintains its low calorie count using the zero-calorie sweetener Stevia, along with cane sugar and sugar alcohol. But such is the promise of Halo Top, whose containers invite patrons to “go ahead, eat the whole pint” in one sitting and whose product the company’s CEO, Justin Woolverton, routinely calls “healthy.” On the latter point, there has been some debate. It sounds almost too good to be true: a flavor-packed, low-sugar ice cream with no more than 360 calories- per pint.
