Title: Ice cream.
Post by: Kaiden on September 25, 2015, 04:53:13 pm
What brand/flavors do you like?
Which ones do you prefer over another?
Do you buy it for home, or go to a place like DQ, or Braums?
(Only Midwest furs can get the latter :P)

I used to work for an ice cream company, it was pretty awesome when we got to sample new flavors like birthday cake ice cream, or cherry bordeaux (bore - dough- For those of you whom can not pronounce it :P) although it's not new, cookie dough takes the cake for me.

What about you?

Mint choc or strawberry for me.  I usually buy a tub for cheap in Asda or Tesco and have a few scoops when I get the shakes (yaye unresolved blood sugar crashes) or when one of my wisdom teeth decides to start coming in a bit more and causes pain.

I love plain chocolate or chocolate chip cookie dough. Even though I usually buy Blue Bell tubs at the store (I haven't been able to do that recently for obvious reasons), I still enjoy Braums because their shakes are delicious :)

My favorite ice cream has to be Banana custard from Anderson's. Mmmmm....Banana...Though Black Raspberry and Strawberry are pretty good too.

We have some local brands here that are rather good. I would get Spumoni from Kroger's or Chocolate Moose Tracks from Meijer, but they seem to have stopped offering the flavors in recent years. So I get Meijer Black Cherry now when on sale. The local DQ has a happy hour in which their treats are all half-off 2-4 PM. I would get a cherry or pineapple malt for the drive home. I miss the Big Q size that DQ once offered. A hot fudge shake was my reward when driving home on MI Free Fishing Weekend, whether I caught anything or not.

Summer's over and I haven't made a root beer float.

Personally I like orange or lime sherbet over ice cream. But plain old vanilla ice cream works
for me.

Since I work in an Ice cream parlour I get to eat a substantial amount of ice cream and the best for me is Salted Caramel. We use Upton Farm which is a local dairy producer in Wales.

This Saturday, I went with my aunt to Braum's, and I ordered a peanut butter cup shake.

Honestly, I don't think anything compares anymore.

Don't care what brand as long as it's vanilla :D

I can only go with chocolate or vanilla. I just can't get past strawberry flavor.

I almost live off of ice cream with how much i eat on a weekly basis.  Almost anything will do for me, but i do like Ben and Jerry's and Baskin Robbin's more than most brands.  As far as flavors go, i'm fine with most anything that doesn't have almonds in it... unless they're chocolate covered almonds...  So yeah, pretty much anything.

Ben & Jerry's Half Baked is good. It's chocolate ice cream, vanilla ice cream, cookie dough, and brownie dough.

Vanilla, strawberry or chocolate :D
(Also once I found a place that sold apple ice cream which was different but very very nice imo.)

Breyer's and Turkey Hill have awesome ice cream. As for flavors, anything chocolate, anything Reese's, mint chocolate chip, chocolate chip cookie dough, fudge ripple, Oreos cookies and cream and so on.

There's no such thing as a bad ice cream in my book! And it's fun to make-- I've had some success with homemade ice creams, either a vanilla, or just a sweet cream frozen custard. But it is a lot of work... so I do usually just buy ice cream.

I do like ice creams with chunks in them. Ben and Jerry's is a brand I really like, but anyone who stirs in cookie dough (or cookie bits)... candies mixed in... chunks of pound cake! Frozen pound cake is really up my alley for some reason, so a birthday cake ice cream with chunks is another kind I like. As much as I like interesting textural stuff and all, a simple sorbetto or vanilla is still nice. Talenti's sorbettos and gelatos are also faves, but I only pick them up if Target is having a sale, because I'm not made of ice cream money.

The other day, my school served ice cream in small, sealed styrofoam cups with the logo "Blue Bunny". At least they were subtle.

Needless to say, it was not as good as Blue Bell.

They have a really cute TV commercial running right now... but I remember they had back-to-back product recalls a while back that still has me avoiding them... though I enjoyed it just fine years ago, as I recall.

What brand/flavors do you like? Which ones do you prefer over another?

I used to eat Thrifty ice cream in the huge tubs when I was young; since then I have tried Haagen Dasz, Blue Bunny, Skinny Cow, Breyer's, Dreyer's, Coldstone Creamery and Ben and Jerry's.

Coldstone is the best company imho.

I enjoy chocolate ice cream the best, but I will also enjoy cookie dough, brownie, peanut butter cup, Thin Mint (yes, it is a flavor of ice cream too!), and Moose Tracks.

Dang it, now I really want ice cream.  :'(

Give me anything containing cookie dough or peanut butter and it'll be gone in under 3 seconds...

Once, when I was working for Braum's, I had this elderly man ask me where we keep the blue bunny ice cream, I told him they were considered competition, and that we had our own brand.

I tend to make what I call a Psuedo-Julius. I buy two cans of frozen orange concentrate and either orange or berry sherbet. I make the orange juice with half of the water, and blend in the sherbet. A delicious gallon+ of sherbet smoothie that tastes as good as the stuff you get at the mall.

I'm an ice cream junkie.  I love the stuff.  Blue Bell is my default fave, owing to the sheer variety of flavors.  However, a month or so ago, the store I work at discontinued some high dollar cream.  I believe it was New Orleans brand or some such.  I got several pints very, very cheap, as it usually retails for about $7 a pint.  IT WAS HEAVENLY.  They had a flavor called Mardi Gras Pie, consisting of marshmallow cream, nuts and chunks of soft chocolate.  It was to die for!  If anyone finds it somewhere, and can afford the hefty price tag, DO IT.  You won't regret it!

Had some home made vanilla ice cream after a romp in fursuit at an area farm festival--by invitation. Made right on site in an ice cream maker powered by an antique Ford truck. It really hit the spot.

A Klondike bar will satify me but Ben and Jerry's "everything but the..." is my fav.
