The Take
Halo Top Cookies & Brownies is healthy ice cream cosplay that fails the moment you read the label. Soybean oil sits in the fat slot while marketers wave the 17g protein flag.
The rest is erythritol, gums, and emulsifiers pretending cream and eggs can carry the whole product alone.
The Verdict
Halo Top Cookies & Brownies sells the fantasy of dessert without consequences. The soybean oil, emulsifiers, and sugar alcohols turn it into ultra-processed LARP that leaves your gut negotiating with additives.
Skip it. Buy a local dairy's full-fat ice cream — cream, sugar, flavor, done.
