Each tub is 500mls and the suggested portion size is 100mlshow Many portions do you get in from a tub?
I have corresponded with the guys at Oppo. They are not trying to produce low carb ice cream, just low calorie (low fat). Nor do they have plans to produce low carb ice cream. So it's off my list.Just had an email from the guys at Oppo. Apparently it is now available in Sainsbury’s and Asda, so easier to get hold of.
Here’s a link to their store finder function:

But their ice cream is pretty low carb... so what if it is unintentional?I have corresponded with the guys at Oppo. They are not trying to produce low carb ice cream, just low calorie (low fat). Nor do they have plans to produce low carb ice cream. So it's off my list.
6.2g of carbs for 100ml of the Oppo Madagascan vanilla against 21.3g carbs for 100ml of Tesco standard vanilla. I think the guys at Oppo have already produced low carb ice cream!! It’s staying on my list!I have corresponded with the guys at Oppo. They are not trying to produce low carb ice cream, just low calorie (low fat). Nor do they have plans to produce low carb ice cream.

Artificial sweeteners?
No - they use stevia and erythritol. Stevia - aka sweet leaf - is is definitely natural and is derived (as per its common name) from a plant leaf. Erythritol also occurs naturally in various plants and fruits, as opposed to being artificially produced. Check Google - e.g. https://bodyecology.com/articles/erythritol_what_you_need_to_know_natural_sugar_substitute.php

I’m getting 2/3 portions, thought I was eating to much but really enjoying itEach tub is 500mls and the suggested portion size is 100mls
I’ve never paid full price for it. If you go to the website and register for their emails you’ll get a £1 off voucher. I’ve had other vouchers emailed since and both Waitrose and Sainsburys have had it on offer from time to time. Hope that helpsThis is very expensive at £4 a pot. I love Icecream however being a pensioner on a basic state pension I will have to remain Icecream free
Sorry, but I have a rule of not eating stuff over 5g of carb/100g. It is so easy to give in to temptation, which I did in Florida recently and had one ice cream a day for 3 weeks. Result - plus 5kg. Otherwise, no bread, root veg, pasta, rice etc which is difficult on holiday.6.2g of carbs for 100ml of the Oppo Madagascan vanilla against 21.3g carbs for 100ml of Tesco standard vanilla.

The local Asda seems to have it on offer in-store at £3 all the time. They usually carry the mint, salted caramel and choc ones but I've never seen the vanilla either there or in Waitrose which is a shame. I find I can only eat a small portion, unlike others i.e. @walnut_faceThis is very expensive at £4 a pot.

Our local Sainsbury's doesn't stock it ( we live in a true no horse town), but ASDA does. The voucher codes aren't taken in. ASDA. to be fair, if one reads the voucher, ASDA are not listed on the retailer list. I did email Opppo for confirmation.I’ve never paid full price for it.

I’ve only used one voucher which was at Holland and Barrett, but now just watch for offers at the supermarkets.Our local Sainsbury's doesn't stock it ( we live in a true no horse town), but ASDA does.

Just a heads-up really.
I must admit I have a similar 5% rule but make an exception for Oppo or similar as a couple of days a week special if I have room for it in my 20g carbs per day limit. Just think the stuff you were eating in Florida was probably 25-30% carbs and thinking of US portion sizes could well have been 100g of carbs in a serving.Sorry, but I have a rule of not eating stuff over 5g of carb/100g.
