** Ice Cream Eating Now Official Thread -- Round 2 **

[The Solution]

Any walmart with an ice cream selection though you'd probably be better off checking super walmarts since regular ones tend to have little if any when it comes to frozen items

Still Pina Colada all over the place here. Wegmans, Giant Eagle, and both super walmarts.
And they are Loaded full.

Gonna be a while

Good thing i got Handels coming next weekend to last me a few weeks.

Same here. Can we agree that this is the biggest B&J flop yet?

Had a spare minute at work yesterday and decided to check on the sale of Pina Colada... not one sale on 3 weeks. Only 9 sold since we started stocking it and I bought one of those. This flavor just does not move.

Yeah and I don't expect a summer-themed flavor to start getting a sales boost in mid-december, either.

Recent trip to Washington and found a few neat things. Sorry for not so in depth reviews, i had them about two weeks ago.
Steve's Southern Banana Pudding

I thought this was fantastic. This was one of the few icecreams remaining on my had to try list and it is by far the best banana ice cream I have ever had. All thats left on my have to try list is Steve's sunday morning.

Found some of this in a supermarket in Olympia. Althought I've never been a fan of the flavor I had to pick it up because of its legacy. I'll admit its better than I give it credit, but my alternative is just so much better.

There are no safeways anywhere near Minnesota, and out of all their flavors i thought this one was the most interesting. This is honestly one of the best icecreams i've had in a while. I know chad gave it a less than stellar review on his site, but i actually got a 2nd pint of it. It has crunchy chewey gooey sweet cream and slight hint of honey all in one. I think this deserves a scoop from anybody. Honest A in my book.

I really enjoyed this. It was simple and very floral tasting. I put it on some crepes, and ate some of it on its own. I think its fantastic in small portions.

The next two are just two I saw at my local whole foods in MN


I havent tried either one. Anybody else have any input?

Curious, the Snoqualmie brand, you get ahold of their Custard? Custard by far is theirbest offerings from that line.

[Misctake7]

Ben and Jerry's scoop shop is right next to the hotel I'm staying at and no CBP. Very disappointing! Did try C7LB and it was excellent. Easy A in my book. Will go back and try Chocolate PB today.

[mussina123]

Picked up some Chocolate Fudge Brownie and What a Cluster... today at walmart, excited to try

I generally only pick up out of the box flavors when i'm traveling, outside of brands I already know. I think they had a few of their custards, but none of them seemed like an adventure lol

Trader Joe Pecan Pie easy A. Taste like pecan pie in ice cream form

may have to give this a shot next time i run down to pitt
Anyone else that has a TJ's try it?

[seamus33]

SW baklava is dope. i've had the pumpkin sea salt caramel (nothing great). but the other looks interesting.

Yeah. I'd give it a B+

I am a massive pecan pie fan and I thought this was horrible, would give it a D at best.

I was in the mood for some mint chip ice cream earlier this week so I swung into the Dunkin Donuts near my house which stocks Baskin Robins quarts. As a child Baskin Robins mint chip was my favorite ice cream however after digging into the quart I realized it wasn't nearly as good as I remembered it being. For $6 it def wasn't worth it and I won't be buying any more Baskin Robins ice cream ever again. If you want bomb mint chip hit up either Turkey Hill or Talenti. Top 2 in the game imo.

Found MMP! Scooping tonight.

Its all over the place in Cali as well. ugh... I'd bet they over produced this horrible flavor thinking it would be a big hit and they are just trying to get rid of their stock pile. yet the stores should be able to track sales and see that they are lacking.

Jeni's Sweet Potato and Torched Marshmallow





This was awesome. My first ever Jeni's and I was not disappointed. I'd definitely get this again

In for this....
100% Jelly
You guys down south always get the new flavors first and have BB all over the place.

[byukid]

Forgot to grab pics of MMP but it was good. The frosting swirl was a bit too redundant, IMO there needed to be a crunchy element, but otherwise a solid B overall.

[seamus33]

dr. bob's-- both get a B+/A-. high quality stuff, just kind of boring as far as mix-ins are concerned. still worth the pick-up and looking forward to other flavors by them.

very good.
it's funny, when i was a kid strawberry was always my favorite (when considering choco/vanilla/strawberry), but i hardly have it now.

[chillaxbroseph]

MMP was definitely one of the better chocolate flavors in the lineup. Definitely agree with the general sentiment that it seems the chocolate base was tweaked/overhauled for this one.

[ErickStevens]

Mississippi Mud Pie B- I could see how chocolate lovers would find this a bit more appealing but to me it was pretty bland. It needs one more mix-in, maybe some candied pecans or something like that.

Better than CT IYO?
Feel iike the Choc Base was better?

Nah, Chocolate Therapy is a little better IMO. They're very similar. I do think the chocolate tastes better in this one too.

have to imagine this will be better than Rocking Blondie (did not try) but reviews were mediocre.
Planning on digging into SSS?

Agree with Erick that CT was better. Probably a tier above.

Pass on Rockin Blondie. I really, really wanted to like it after how much I've been lamenting the lack of blondies/brown sugar bases in the lineup since the discontinuation of Maple Blondie.

SSS was absolutely legit. I thought it was going to be boring given its uniform components, but that hardened butterscotch swirl was absolutely amazing.
