"I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream," as the popular saying goes. Yet for all our cravings for these creamy frozen treats--the perfect combination of portability and indulgence-our collective conscience knows they don't quite qualify as the best in nutrition.

Rest assured. There are a number of tasty and surprisingly satisfying ice cream sandwiches that we can all enjoy, without worrying about clogged arteries, lactose intolerance, empty calories or genetically modified ingredients, and we tested them.

Of the ice cream sandwiches we tried, some were dairy-free, some were completely organic, and others added a new twist to this timeless snack. These will make you scream for more.

TOFUTTI CUTIES VANILLA had most of our testers fooled into thinking it was a dairy dessert. This sandwich topped our soy ice cream best-tasting list and came very close to second place overall. One sandwich has only 120 calories and 5g of fat.
