Overall Rating: 3/5
Summary: it was just okay...wouldn't buy it again. It wasn't as soft and creamy as other flavours in the Purely Decadent Line (like the Chocolate Obsession and Praline Pecan). The flavour wasn't sufficiently rich, intense, or sweet for my liking.

Meh...I wasn't expecting much from this flavour simply because it was 'just' vanilla and I tend to prefer super indulgent flavours. But because it was the Purely Decadent line, I was somewhat hopeful that it would be surprisingly good. I was disappointed. I definitely had to add in some 'soft-baked banana cookies' to make the experience passable.
I got this at Fortinos and will not be buying this flavour again. The taste wasn't sweet enough and the vanilla flavour could have been more intense...perhaps more vanilla extract would have worked. The texture was a letdown--it was kinda hard and icy. I had to let it melt for a while before digging in.
I do appreciate the high fiber content and the fewer calories (compared to other flavours in this line), but it's still not worth it for me.
