Got Your Goat

Laloo's Goat's Milk Ice Cream

Everyone knows that ice cream has miraculous mood-boosting properties.

Broken heart? Fight with the boss? Sibling rivalry? Nothing a spoon and a pint can’t fix.

Until an hour later when you kick yourself for eating the whole pint.

Now there’s a low fat, low guilt, extra delish twist on your favorite panacea: Laloo’s Goat’s Milk Ice Cream. Creamier than soy and with less lactose than cow’s milk, it’s the goat that makes it good.

Laloo’s ice cream is handmade using all-natural, fresh ingredients from Sonoma (where the 500 goats reside). And thanks to owner and ice cream maker Laura Howard’s secret technique, the ice cream is unbelievably creamy and still low in fat. On top of that, tantalizing flavors like chocolate cabernet, black mission fig, pumpkin, and cheesecake (to name a few) will rock your taste buds.

Go ahead. Grab your spoon. Heck, get a shovel. It’s sure to cure whatever ails you.

Available at Rainbow Grocery, 1745 Folsom Street, between 14th and 13th Streets (415-863-0620); and Bi-Rite Market, 3639 18th Street, between Oakwood and Guerrero Streets (415-241-9760). For more information, go to goatmilkicecream.com.
