Ice cream of the future

Love, love, love the sweet cream flavor. But for everything else, Bruster's is just as good, if not better.

 

Count me in the Cold Stone haters club.

Way too sweet, and there's too much of it.

 

Cold Stone is great, but Marble Slab is better. Same kind of place without the damn singing.

 

I'm not as much an ice cream eater as I once was, but Cold Stone is just too expensive. Baskin Robbins is just as good, and cheaper. Around these parts, Braum's has aficionados, but I've never tried their ice cream.

 

To go off on a bit of a tangent, does anyone out there know when (and if) the DQs are going to start serving up the baseball helmet sundaes?

Last summer, when the kids and I went to the local Dairy Queen, they said no more helmet sundaes. Literally everyone waiting at the registers with me went, "WHAT!!!???"

Used to eat those as a kid -- although all the cool helmets always were gone. I'd always get stuck with some lousy team like the Indians or the Pirates.

 

That's exactly how I became an Orioles fan for a brief time as a child.

 

Baskin Robbins is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

That is all.

 

Ab-so-fucking-lutely. It's time they changed their mantra. And the stuff, it takes like shit from the store. Just let it sit in your freezer for more than a day or two and you'll see.

 

Baskin-Robbins?

Stone-Cold?

Hell with them.


Give me Eagle Brand, eggs, sugar and vainilla and even an old crank machine and I'm happy. That's what heaven will be like. Homemade without the production - and sorry,Blue Bell, Your make of it is only a distant a close second.

 

Cold Stone = bleah ice cream plus annoying singing for which I'm expected to pay premium prices. Umm, no.

We go to a little Mom'n'Pop place.

 

There's no better way. Profits stay at home, and its cheaper. I've never been to a Coldstone, and I haven't been to a TCBY, Baskin Robbins or DQ's in a long time.

I spend my money at the Dairy Barns, Custard Huts and Tasty Twists of this world.
