Cold Stone Creamery

The average regular shake is nearly 900 calories, but the regular Like It™ size ice creams are almost all within the 300-calorie range. Factor that in with the creamery’s real fruit toppings, light ice cream, and sorbet, and Cold Stone starts to compensate for its dangerous shakes and its more dubious ice cream add-ons.

SURVIVAL STRATEGY

Lace a Like It™ cup with light ice cream, fresh fruit, and maybe a touch of chocolate shavings or whipped cream for good measure.
