Alden's Ice Cream

Alden's Ice Cream claims to have a range of gourmet ice cream products made from all natural and organic ingredients.

The Eugene, OR-based company goes on to say that its ice cream contains no pesticides, no artificial ingredients, no antibiotics, no genetically modified ingredients, and no hormones. But it does contains saturated fats ranging from 5g to 9g per serving, depending on the flavor.

Flavors include Vanilla Bean, Chocolate Chocolate Chip, Strawberry, and Cookies 'n Cream.

The "organically farmed" and "certified USDA organic" ice cream is available in the USA in a 48 oz. resealable carton priced between $5.69 and $5.89.

The company's website doesn't provide a store locator. Probably available in stores around Oregon, however. Visit their website: http://www.aldensicecream.com/

By the way I just bought my first Aldens Ice Cream at Western Supermarkets in Birmingham AL and it tastes great!!!
I think it's wonderful that it has 5-9 grams of naturally sat fat per serving. That's why it has cream in the name as opposed to ice, oil, trans fat and corn syrup like most major brands-- read their lables! Please cite any scientific study that shows that natural saturated fats in ice cream cause any health issues whatsoever! You may want to rethink fats and veggie oils if you read the article linked below from a major university researcher who has fought this battle for 30 years! Wonder why it took so long for trans fats to make the headlines- the article explains part of that "mystery."

I am eating some Alden's mint chip as I type. It is DELICIOUS! It's a very tasty ice cream at a very reasonable price for an organic product especially of this quality. It is also lower in calories than many brands of ice cream (130-180 per half cup as opposed to 200-250) and it is lower in sugars at 3 gm per serving. This was my first time buying it and I will definitely get it again.

Whoops that was supposed to say 13 gm of sugar! Big difference!

Absolutely the best ice cream I've ever had. Delicious. One of the best organic products I've tried.
