There are actually healthy ways to cheat. USA Diet Plans® considers regular ice cream healthier than fat-free or reduced fat versions because I would rather have the fat than the carbohydrate -especially when your ice cream is made from what I consider healthy fats. The insulin response is much greater after eating high carbohydrate frozen yogurts and sherberts.

A cheat meal for me is usually pizza and I have ice cream for dessert. I either choose Ben & Jerry's® Pistachio-pistachio flavor or Häagen-Dazs® Butter pecan.

Ben & Jerry's® Pistachio-pistachio has a short ingredient list, pistachios consist of a healthy fat and they also use coconut oil. Although coconut oil is a saturated fat, USA Diet Plans® does not see a problem with coconut oil because coconut oil is low in omega-6 fat.

Ingredients: Cream, Skim Milk, Liquid Sugar, Water, Pistachios, Egg Yolks, Natural Flavor, Coconut Oil, Guar Gum, Salt, Carrageenan.

Häagen-Dazs® Butter Pecan has nuts as an ingredient, a short ingredient list and they also use coconut oil.

Ingredients: Cream, Skim Milk (Lactose Reduced), Sugar, Pecans (Roasted in Coconut Oil, Butter, Salt), Egg Yolks, Corn Syrup, Natural Vanilla, Salt.
