My favorite is Ben & Jerry’s Coffee Heath Bar Crunch! Coffee flavored ice cream with large chunks of Heath bar – yummy!
I spent one summer in Chicago and the grocery store near me carried an Edy’s Tiramisu flavor, which was amazing, but I’ve never seen it since. Which is probably good for my waistline…
Now I want to go to the grocery store and get some ice cream!

Ice cream! I love it, even though I’m lactose intolerant. Here in NZ, the ice cream is just amazing – I’m not sure what they are feeding the cows!

The best brand here (in my opinion) is Kapiti Ice Cream. They have several gourmet flavors, and every single one is good. Unfortunately, they are also v. expensive!

The favorite flavor here is called “Hokey Pokey”. I love anything chocolate, though…

Thanks, Celeste M.: We buy Rice Dream occasionally, but it’s like three times the price of premium ice cream, and with four kids it either gets expensive fas or doesn’t last long. And they do cheat a little now & then; they just can’t do it too often or eat too much or they pay for it with headaches and crabbiness.

Amy’s (only in Texas) – Mango
Cold Stone – My Strawberry Blonde
Haagen Daz – Pistachio
Ben & Jerry’s – I don’t know the name but it is chocolate ice cream with huge chunks of brownie in it (don’t get it in a grocery store though, the brownie gets mushy. the fresh bought in the store is the best).

I’m a bit of an ice-cream snob I guess because Dryers, Marble Slab and Blue Bell don’t cut it with me.

Yes! Graeter’s! Black Raspberry Chip is the best, I was found a chip that was the circumference of the pint. mmmmm.

I once had beer ice cream in Amherst, MA, and it was actually really good! Kind of like a malty flavor.

My favorites are all soft-serve. I’ve been making homemade. The easiest is chocolate. Just one cup of a ready made 2% chocolate milk (I think it is the carrageen that gives it a good texture). You can also use one cup of a thicker soy milk, like Silk or Organic Valley, mixed with 1/2 cup mashed fruit. The texture isn’t very good with out the fruit. Put in an icecream freezer and churn for at least 10 minutes, until the mix is frozen to the desired consistency.

For me Coffee, in it’s many forms (Coffee,Coffee,Zoom,Zoom). It brings me back to Charlie White’s drug store. With the soda fountain on one side, the cosmetics on the other, and the apothecary along the back, kids had to wait for the adults to be helped before being served. With no self serve, Mr. White retrieved each item personally, unless Mrs. White was helping out that day.
