Enjoy ice cream without the guilt

I hear the most absurd things sometimes. For instance, the other day one of my neighbours was saying how people find it impossible to eat as much food in the summer as they do when the temperatures are lower. OK, I agree with the fact that sometimes it’s so hot all that can interest you is getting yourself to a cool location in a hole of ice. Food can be the last thing on your mind on such occasions.

However, at the sea or the swimming pool, I tend to get hungry and at lunchtime I have a hard time controlling my appetite. The same goes for the evenings and anyway haven’t these people heard of summer being the eating season? There’s no better season to eat locally and seasonally munching on fresh fish, fruits and vegetables.

But I’ve saved the best for last: Ice cream! How can you ignore summer’s delight? And I hear you complaining about bikinis and weight so maybe you should give P&P diet ice cream a try. It’s actually even tastier than calorie-packed ice creams and it’s suitable for diabetics.

They are fat and sugar free and available in vanilla & chocolate and vanilla & strawberry, in small tubs or family sixe ones for the freezer. Enjoy with no guilt!

Available from supermarkets and kiosks

It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people.
