Ben & Jerry’s, Burlington, Vt., introduced a line of reduced-calorie, reduced-sugar pints that gives its customers a “less guilt” option, the company said.Called Moo-phoria, the ice cream contains 60-70% less fat and at least 35% fewer calories than traditional ice cream, according to the company.
In 1997 Ben & Jerry's Homemade, Inc. listed more than 50 flavors of ice cream, frozen yogurt, low fat ice cream, and sorbet. About 34 of the flavors are packaged and sold in grocery stores, while the rest are only available in Ben & Jerry's Scoop Shops and for sale to restaurants. .
