Tue Nov 5, 2024, 11:55 AM
Nov 5

Years ago Dryers made Dutch Chocolate that was deep chocolate & not too sweet. Then they discontinued it. Recently I found Private Selection Chocolate Ganache that is even better!! Same dark chocolate, not-too-sweet, but creamier! Probably more calories, too, but so worth it!! In the summer, keep a bottle of peppermint schnapps in the freezer & pour a shot or two over the ice cream for a PERFECT peppermint/chocolate treat.

31. What you got?
Tue Nov 5, 2024, 11:59 AM
Nov 5

That’s my favorite

It’d be easier to name ice cream that I don’t like. One of which is an entire brand, which I won’t name, that needs to revamp its freezing process. The ice cream is interspersed throughout with tiny ice crystals that give it a ‘gritty’ mouthfeel. I also don’t like fruit flavors that are discernibly artificial. Waxy, tasteless chocolates are another turnoff.

On my recurring playlist lately have been mint chocolate chip, black cherry, peach, and moose tracks. I could subsist on those for awhile.

Haven't actually seen it offered anywhere since I was a kid. And patronized local purveyors of fine frozen dairy-based products.

Only nostalgia, I guess, but good nostalgia. Bonus: don't have to worry what level of lactose tolerance I'm capable of when it's an ice cream that exists in memory: )

and didn't know how dangerous it was, I used to make ice cream sandwiches out of Sara Lee pound cake and Haagen Dasz coffee ice cream. If I ate one now I'd probably age five years like a time elapse photo, but it was a winning combo in 1972!

92. SPUMONI!...
Tue Nov 5, 2024, 02:35 PM

...which is usually very hard to find in the stores. Edy's makes a very good spumoni (rich chocolate, maraschino ice cream with big chunks of cherries, and non-artificial tasting pistachio with lots of coarsely chopped nuts), but the local stores (Walmart, Kroger, etc., although Kroger sometimes has their own brand of spumoni, but it's only available in-store, and I have my groceries delivered. DARN!) hardly ever carry it, and we don't have a Baskin-Robbins or a Kopp's Custard (I WISH!!!) in our little burg in NW TN. SIGH!

100. Cappuccino Chocolate Chunk

This is actually a yogurt, but it is delicious. We get it at Braum's. When you order a meal or combo at Braum's, you can choose a soft drink or a shake/malt. We go with the Cappuccino Chocolate Chunk Shake. If anyone has a Braum's nearby, check it out. You will thank me.

Blue Bell's "The Great Divide." One-jhalf French vanilla, one-half Dutch chocolate. However, having voted earlier today, I'm not really nervous. I'll eat some ice cream anyway. It couldn't hurt.

Oddly, chocolate chip is not available any more. You can either get "mint chocolate chip" or "chocolate chip cookie dough".

It's just not the same.

As an adult it is butter pecan. I always intend to try something new but I just can’t do it. In soft serve it’s chocolate/vanilla mixed. Now I’m craving it all.

183. Talenti- Double Dark Chocolate gelato, or Ben & Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk!
Tue Nov 5, 2024, 09:46 PM

The Talenti has amazing dark chocolate chips!

(Mostly) Non Chocolate:
Hagen Daz - Butter Pecan
Hagen Daz - Vanilla w chocolate fudge almonds
Baskin Robbins - Jamoca Almond Fudge

When Ben & Jerry introduced themselves to NYC w a big festival in Central Park; they set up tents where you could write postcards for 3 various causes.
Then you a ticket for each. Hmmm... not sure if 1 ticket = 1 scoop.

Anyway they had a ?slightly sweet ice cream with fresh peach chunks!
Wonderful! Remembered from the
? Mid 1980s!
It's was that good! 😄

226. CHOCOLATE!
Thu Nov 7, 2024, 01:13 PM
Nov 7

That's why I've never tried Ben & Jerry's. For years — decades, really — I've been hearing about how good Ben & Jerry's ice cream is. I keep responding, okay, I'll try it, but then, when I go to the grocery store to buy some, I can't find Ben & Jerry's CHOCOLATE ice cream. All kinds of crazy, exotic flavors, but no CHOCOLATE. So I end up buying Haagen Dazs Chocolate instead — which is really good ice cream too.

Until they start selling Ben & Jerry's CHOCOLATE ice cream, I will never try their ice cream. Or any other brand either, if they don't offer their ice cream in CHOCOLATE!

230. Thank you soldierant. Now that pistachio honey sounds great. All you flavors were discontinued---that's a bummer. Relax

Since Kroger and Albertson's between them cover most of the country. you cna pronbably find them.

Albertso'n's now owning Safeway - Safeway has a "Black Cherry Vanilla which comes only in a 48 ounce size, but it's better than Tillamkk's cherry, and that's saying something.
