In reply to the discussion: What is your favorite flavor/flavors of ice cream? I have two---peach and strawberry. And you? [View all]electric_blue68
(27,445 posts)My absolute favorite is newish at 2+ yrs and is a Gelato. Talenti's Double Dark Chocolate! It has a bit of vermouth which i don't like that much [ if only it was a touch of bourbon!😄 ] but it also has these tiny, intensity dark chocolate "shards". They're not even "chips" 😄 ! And it's a more intense chocolate over all. So I ignore the vermouth 😄 . But it's not always available,and l have to take a bus there (not super far away, but far enough).
Now if that's not available, and they have Talenti's Black Raspberry it has the same chocolate shards, and I like black raspberry.
Otherwise it's Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Therapy; New York Super Fudge Chunk, or Chocolate Brownie.
I do like butter pecan, Hagan Das's Vinilla with chocolate covered almonds in a pinch.
Most different for me was when Ben & Jerry introduced themselves to NYC w a festival in Central Park.
If you wrote some social activitist type postcards in the big tents they provided -you'd get a ticket which you could trade in for free ice cream. A good deal!
They had a ?sweet cream (or ?maaaybe vanilla ) ice cream w fresh cut peach pieces. Since I loved peaches it was delightful.
For several years they even had it at a certain time in their stores.
