Would give it an 8/10! Absolutely brilliant vanilla base which was really smooth and velvety, really tasty bits of tablet mixed in and a very generous amount...but the chunks were maybe a bit smaller than I'd have hoped for. Will still definitely be buying more Porelli ice cream.

I know after yesterday there should be a few more people added to the Cannoli tasters. Curious to hear what there opinions were...

Nice! I'll have to remember to try it if I ever go over to visit family.

What precautions are you guys on the east coast taking to protect your ice cream stockpiles from Sandy? I'm scared!

you dont even know how worried I am lol. last year during irene I lost 6 pints, a pack of ice cream sandwiches and like 75$ worth of real food(chicen veggies, eggs, milk, etc). Im going to freeze ike 5 gallon ziplocks filled with water to act as ice packs which will hopefully keep the freezer acting like a cooler for atleast 12 hours if the power does go out. Pro-tip. If/when the power goes out, DO NOT open the freezer or fridge. the things in there can stay cool for hours if you don't.

My house always loses power during these storms and I'm sitting on 30 pints right now. Prob $150 worth of frozen milk. I keep telling myself the storms gonna miss us, sort of like wishful thinking. My neighbor always has power when we lose ours so I'm hoping he will rent me some freezer space if it comes down to it. Wondering if I should put the freezer on its max setting for now.

[psychodiver9]

Put in a special request for Publix to order occ. Supposed to call me back at 1

[kyle450rider]

You fellas that are in the path of the storm should go and get a block of dry ice from the nearest store that has it. Put that in your freezer and make sure you only open it if you have too. Should help keep all your pints and frozen meat good until you get power restore. You could even buy extra dry ice and put it in a cooler with your frozen goods.

Oh wow, I can't believe I just found this topic... (I'm lying, just need a reason to post here)

I actually eat almost a pint of Ben and Jerry's every night sorta.

I had Cannoli last weekend. I got it from the Kroger on Bardstown road, but haven't seen it since. It was... interesting. A very sugar-buttery taste, with chocolate shells. Think like, chocolate covered waffle cones for the flavour. I just had a Cannoli today at Buca Di Beppo's and, looking back at the B&J flavour representation, it really didn't taste like a Cannoli but, it was still good.

You might want to look into Krogers, or Whole Food Market's for it though. I think Ben & Jerry's have a locator for finding it now I believe.


I need your help with something though guys.

I really want to try Volun-Tiramasu but, I'm not sure where I would even look for it. Is it an exclusive flavour?

I had What-a-Cluster last Friday and the was just amazing, by the way.


Edit-

I have a Chocolate Therapy in the Freezer for tomorrow, and I'm hoping I can find Talenti's Sea Salt Caramel at my Whole Foods after work.

I've heard amazing things about SSC Talenti, but all I managed to try was Mediterranean Mint, I believe. It was odd, really odd. It was so light, and refreshing, but it was heavy on the stomach more then ice cream which, struck me as interesting.

What flavours should I try to find?

doesn't HAVE to be B&J, either.

I'm open to any company.

[Tdiguy]

[Karas893]

I love that flavor, it just leaves me wanting more by the end of it though.

I swear I need to drink a gallon of water before I eat Ice Cream so I feel satisfied by the end.

[IrishPilot]

Down to my final two selections before my Ice cream hiatus...What A Cluster and Talenti SSS. Decent selections to go out on a good note! Now which to enjoy first...

[Vendetta52]

You post a pic but provide no review? How was it?

For B&J''s Chubby Hubby. CT is great, if you like coffee Coffee Heath Bar Crunch is fantastic as well.

For other brands, BB's Carrot cake is amazing and has good macros as well. Also, if you have access to TH try any of the sports themed flavors. My favorite of those is Graham Slam

[nickreds3]

Broke into the new Blue Bell Gingerbread House, and I think it's almost as good as Cinnamon Buns. If you have access to Blue Bell in your area, definitely keep your eyes out for it. The combination of cinnamon ice cream, gingerbread pieces, sprinkles, and vanilla icing is incredible.

[igglesphan]

It is and it sucks

^This... Volun-Tiramisu blows!

[dapits]

Had chocolate nougat crunch over the weekend. Liked it a lot! It was really sweet, mixins were plentiful and crunchy and nougat swirl tasty and everywhere. A solid 8,5/10 in my book. I was surprised to like it that much as I remember seeing a lot of not so good reviews on here.

Sadly, my local scoopshop is closing for the winter. I'll have to "survive" with only 7-8 flavors available until spring. I did pick up the last 4 pints of the banana peanut butter froyo to help me last that long. I f*****g love it, it's like crack.
