Was recently sent a press release about new "Halo Top ice cream, the first ever, low calorie ice cream that’s non-gmo, 100% natural, high in protein and fiber, and sweetened with organic stevia to lower the sugar content!" That makes it good whether this February 14th you will be celebrating Valentine's or Singles Awareness Day. The press release goes on to say:

In addition to containing no cheap corn syrup, no artificial sweeteners, and no synthetic growth hormones and being completely free of gluten, trans fat and gelatin (making it vegetarian friendly), Halo Top is lovingly crafted with premium ingredients like authentic Belgian chocolate, pure Madagascar vanilla, and real California lemons and strawberries (move over fake “strawberry swirl!”) to make the taste heavenly.
