I'm from Alaska, a state that consumes the most ice cream per capita, so I'm a huge fan but what I hate most about frozen treats is the high fat content. This is where Rita's frozen fruit ices come to the rescue--they're completely fat free and all you need is the kiddie size for a perfect, light, refreshing treat on a hot day without worrying about packing on the pounds or feeling guilty and gross afterward. There are two choices, mango and cherry. The mango is beyond amazing and the cherry is about what you'd expect, nothing phenomenal but not bad either, though it does contain actual real chunks of cherries as an added bonus.
So the next time you're taking a stroll through Squirrel Hill stop by Rita's, and instead of ordering a large double-decker fat-filled and sugar-loaded treat, order a small fruit ice and savor the rich flavor in small bites without the guilt.
