I imagine it will stay the same.

I'd hope so. Blue bell increased their prices slightly.

I will have a hard time justifyng buying it if it does go up. With Mcconnels available for as little as $6 I cant see my self spending 12 bucks on jenis.

with the reviews on Mcconnels i don't see why you would. I have yet to find or try Mcconnels, but can't wait to scoop that PB cup flavor they got.

I only have access 5 of their flavors but all of them are certainly top tier. Hoping for a good deal on shipping on cyber monday.

if i can get their shipping half off instead of 80$ i may consider pulling the trigger.

For me it's more about what flavors they offer. I'm not interested in trying anything I've already had, so I won't spend the money regardless. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

You talking about Double PB Chip?

They are coming out of a very difficult period financially, but on the other hand manufacturing is now outsourced to a much larger operation. These two should offset each other; plus, going beyond $10 per pint would be risky strategy.

Honestly tho...there isn't much that's coming between me and some pints of Dark Chocolate and Brown Butter Almond Brittle...

That's kind of how I feel. I love Dark Chocolate Peppermint, Brown Butter Almond Brittle, Brambelberry Crisp, and Goat Cheese & Cherries too much to pass on them if they're right in front of me. And their seasonals? Forget about it.

[mnovotny85]

The shelves in VA are loaded with TH pumpkin pie from late september to late december. I wouldnt worry about not getting it, eric. When you do videos like the recent Salt and straw one, do you eat 3 pints in one go?

@bob I was expecting pig tracks to be better. Either you got a bum pint or their version of moose tracks is a total let down.

No TH Pumpkin Pie in NC yet, i've been checking for the past few weeks.

EPIC double crust pizza.

[lazymuchacho]

And their seasonals? Forget about it.

On ********, they mentioned that holiday pint flavors would be new to everyone. My body is ready.

Shows how much i have had Mcconnels lol.
I am going to try and scoop that one
Chocolate Almond Brittle
Sea Salt Cream & Cookies

These 3 sound like winners.

Try their Backyard Mint Ice Cream Sandwich next time.Pretty damn good, you can sample it (they will give you almost a 1/4th of a cookie)

I take it you were not a fan of Rumball (do not know if you tried) 7 Layer Bar, or Jeni's Pumpkin ?

[ErickStevens]

I loved 7 Layer Bar and Pumpkin but those were LEs. Who knows if they'll ever come back.

Fair point especially with the setback they had
Ample Hills order with free shipping + your coupon code is a pretty damn good deal 74$ for 6 pints.
brb need to buy a separate freezer just for ice cream.

[MirinMyTraps]

This was on clearance for only $1.99 and I was in the mood for a fruity ice cream, the description made it sound decent at least...

Wow, pretty good, base is very light though and melts fast, but the flavor is great, the swirls are incredible, and the peach chunks are plentiful if a bit small. For the price it is a solid scoop despite the lacking base, hit the spot for the fruity need too. All in all, will grab this again if it's still on sale later this week, very refreshing flavor, B- (C maybe because of how light the base is).

Still looks delicious brah

Guys, I've been trying to tell you. Goldbely is the bomb.

[SOH11]

Snagged these today:

[gbullock32]

^Never heard of Pilgrim Joe's, local brand?

Its trader joes.

[gbullock32]

Is that regional? I've never seen Hershey's ice cream before. That caramel puddle look delicious.




Forgive Gage, he's a total noobie when it comes to Trader Joe's.

Haha, nah; just haven't been in awhile.

[jubjubrsx]

just curious, do any of you guys feel guilty when you destroy a half gallon tub of ice cream in a sitting? I know a pint is one thing, thats normal...

No, because I have a good relationship with food.

Blondie Ambition and Talenti Caramel Cookie Crunch over A Swirled of Difference? I respect all opinions but lets be real tea here...

swirled of difference had too thin pb swirls and too much raspberry. It needed thicker pb swirles and i'd give it a B maybe. Blondie ambition was surprisingly delicious. Caramel cookie crunch has FAT caramel swirls. the most i've ever had out of any talenti pint

[jaredmus]

I'm in the binghamton area

That place looks good. What town, my girlfriends family is from oneida, I live 25 mins outside manhattan. But that pizza looks crazy good

I agree with you. The raspberry is way too strong.

I remember in ICE MEN 2 when it first came out everyone was losing their **** and it was getting A's.

As for a half gallon i've never done that in one sitting because when it goes beyond a quart its not enjoyable anymore. But i've eaten 1300 cal pints back to back. It doesnt make me feel guilty. If anything ill cut down a little the next day to compensate though.

Some in here have eaten 4-5 pints in a sitting, so i guess your situation is not as bad, but still a law of diminishing returns with a half gallon IMO.
