I've been known to eat a whole tub of B&J in one sitting, but it was the frozen yogurt.... I swear!

Usually it's bowl lately now that the metabolism isn't like what it used to be and the pounds just don't come off as fast as they used to. The bowl is my forced means of portion control--that and the hubby saying I can't have a second bowl. I guess he figures if he can't then I can't either.... :D

And I know when he eats out of the tub.... ;)
 
Bowl dude. Although, if it's towards the end of the ice cream that's in the tub...I'll just eat it out of the tub. It's easier. Though you do get wet hands 'coz of condensation and ice etc. Hmmm. Brrrr, cold hands!
 
A cup. The last time I had ice cream was 2 months ago and about a year before that :eek: .
 
Hmm...it depends.

If I eat ice cream emotionaly it's from the tub.

If I eat ice cream as dessert it's from a bowl.

If I feel fat I grab a weight watchers ice cream bar.
 
The cup, but I usually sneak a spoonful or two from the tub late at night. If the tub is about to go dry, then I take in the whole tub with a smile.

Occasionally, I eat the entire tub in one sitting then proceed to deposit $10 into a jar labeled "lipo savings", currently it stands at $100.

Please don't tell me that you eat that in one sitting! :eek: ;) :D
 
hmmm...I haven't had ice cream in so long its hard to remember what I do. I go for whatever is the most convenient, so I guess out of the tub.
 
I don't eat a lot of ice cream - but it's almost always been out of a bowl.

Fun fact about ice cream - often alcoholics are told to try some ice cream when they have the urge to drink. It seems the taste of ice cream and booze don't go well together....
 
I usually eat out of the tub. A little bit at a time though and I am always picked on by my father for the way I eat ice cream :eek: I scoop out a little bit on the spoon at a time.

When I am around others I will eat out of a bowl.
 
pft.. BOWL.

I eat some from the tub, I'll put it back.. I'll eat it from a cup, but not a bowl.

I dunno why.. but it's good. :)

I love sprinkles, but they don't work too well in a tub. :p

eww... I can imagine why!

I try not to have ice cream in the house (goal to have a 6 pack by then end of the year), so for me its always ice cream at the mall when im shopping with someone and were walking around waisting time. So then its a small amount of expensive ice cream in one of those plastic container thingies... :D
 
I actually HATE to eat ANY kinds of junk food (ice cream, chips, candy, chocolate, whatever) but when I'm really hungry and feel like ice cream, I get chocolate peanut butter cup ice cream with hot fudge, Reese's cup pieces, chocolate sprinkles and peanut butter sauce.

Only a small bowl though. :D

Pint container goes in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. I then proceed to eat half the pint from the container. Why dirty up a dish?

Out of the at least 5000+ ice cream cups and cones I have prepared for people, I've had 1 person ask me to put theirs in the microwave. Not a common practice, that. :p

If I were to eat an entire tub in one sitting, I'd be eating 3 gallons of ice cream. So naturally, I do eat entire tubs in one sitting. :D

$5 says someone believes me
 
It's not good for ice cream to sit out and melt (even just for a few minutes). It makes the ice cream hard and it looses its creaminess.

I pull the tub out of the freezer, scoop out what I want into a bowl, and pop it back in.
