Posted by Breyers on Wednesday, August 7, 2019Peanut butter lovers, this lower-carb frozen treat is for you! CarbSmart™ Peanut Butter Frozen Dairy Dessert has 5g net carbs per serving. You know ice cream is delicious, but if you're watching your sugars and carbs, it may not be such a sweet deal. With Breyers CarbSmart™, you don't have to sacrifice taste and quality to enjoy a carb-conscious treat. Your sweet tooth can indulge in a smooth, nutty treat without any guilt. Back in 1866, when our founder William Breyer started his small ice cream operation in Philadelphia, he may not have been watching his calories and carbs, but he was watching over the quality of the ingredients that he put into his ice cream. And that's what we still do today. Our Breyers CarbSmart™ Peanut Butter abides by our pledge to use 100% Grade A milk and fresh cream from American cows not treated with artificial growth hormones.* If you're not nuts about Peanut Butter, then try our CarbSmart™ Vanilla or Chocolate, or our novelty bars in Almond, Fudge, Vanilla, and Mint Fudge! * The FDA states that no significant difference has been shown between dairy derived from rBST-treated and non-rBST-treated cows.
