I don't think I've had white mint chocolate chip. It's not good? Bummer.

When I was in London, we went to Haagen Daaz a few times and O..M...G....WHY can we not have those places here in the states?! It's like a restaurant and all they serve is ice cream, shakes and stuff. YUMALICIOUS!!!

Nope. Not big on the white kind.

I still remember when we were in France...I can't recall which town it was...it was outside of Paris though...we were hanging out and my friend Paul decided he wanted ice cream upon spotting a Haagen Daaz. He ordered some ice cream and was like, "wtf. this tastes like cheese." He thought he ordered vanilla but upon further inspection (including chunks of something inside the ice cream) we determined it very well could have been cheese.

Aside from that, I went to a wedding a few years ago and they were serving salmon as the main course. I am not a big fan of salmon so I was relieved when I saw waiters coming around with trays of sorbet that appeared to be raspberry and cherry. Well wouldn't you know, one of the sorbets was SALMON and GUESS WHO PICKED THAT ONE

Yeah, that would have triggered my "throw up everything in my system" reflex...

Sounds like a winning combo to me!! And diss...I LOVE Dairy Queen...the food and the ice cream!

Yeah, but they'd have to carry our flabby frames from the couch to get us to see each Mac tour.

Well, we have a chain here called Newport Creamery. They have been sold and have closed a lot of stores.

The best thing that I love there is called a chocolate cabinet. A cabinet is just a RI term for a shake.

We also have Friendly's which has also closed a few stores in RI but not as many as Newport Creamery. My fave there is a hot fudge sundae with forbidden chocolate ice cream.

They have Friendly's near Philly. Thumbs up on that place.

You know, my absolute favorite ice cream is actually not ice cream but frozen yougurt. There are no longer TCBY's around here but whenever I go to Ocean City Maryland (there are 3 there...I've been to each..lol), I get myself some white chocolate mousse. It's amazing and I love it. Around here, local haunts are Dippy's and Don and Burts. Food TV Network's show The Best Of profiled a place down towards the shore last year. I can't remember the name of it but supposedly it's amazing homemade custard in some crazy flavors. I'm going to have to look it up and try it someday.

Don't forget Dipstix Frozen Custard.

ALEX, you will have to take me to one when I come down to FL!


We also have a few Ben & Jerry's. My favorite is Phish Food and Chocolate Fudge Brownie.

Phish Food is good, but I never had it until a couple years ago. And now I'm craving Chunky Monkey. When I lived in Chicago I used to eat a Chunky Monkey and a (Haagen-daz) Caramel Cone Explosion every day. Now my metabolism knows where I live.

I think all those flavors taste like toothpaste. Might as well have dental floss and cotton balls as toppings.

My mom LOVES Breyers. I don't. It's the box. Ice cream tastes better from a tub, not a box, the same way a sandwich tastes different depending on if it's cut in triangles or rectangles.
Deep down y'all know I'm right.
