With the hot summer months here, what’s better than a refreshing cold dessert to cool off? It’s pretty well known that ice cream is not the healthiest snack, but even the low-fat versions can still pack on the pounds. Here’s a better snack option, sherbert! When comparing the nutritional content of both, low-fat ice cream still has 200 more calories and 14 g of fat when compared to sherbert! Those 200 extra calories are equivalent to a 40 minutes walk! It’s also got half the carbs, sugar, and 37% less sodium. EnjoyJ
