Tonight dough has taken #1 for me. It's pb half baked plus more. And with better base

Dude the froyo half baked is good too. I'll agree tho, tonight dough has taken the top spot for me as well
 
Tonight Dough was really good, not my top spot though

Just picked up cinnamon buns the other day. Haven't tried yet but looking forward to it.

Phish food is a good one. Def up there with my all time favorites.

I must've gotten a bum pb world cuz it just didn't impress me like it seems to have done for everyone else.

I thought pb world was just meh. Maybe just bad pints? Anyhow, for BnJ pb just go with pb half baked- that ish was awesome

New Orleans Ice Cream Co. Cafe Au Lait & Beignets

Overall this is a winner. New Orleans Ice Cream Company did a fantastic job on putting together quality ingredients to provide a tasty coffee dessert. What is coffee without a bit of sweetness and milk? To the typical american that is unheard of! New Orleans decided to toss in the scaled milk to enhance a mild coffee cold brewed base. For those who like medium or blonde roast coffee beverages this will be right up your alley. New Orleans complimented the coffee base with a beignet donut dessert cut up and spread throughout the pint. The sweetness and softness provided by the dessert on top of a delicious thick, hard, and glazed swirl rounded this pint off. New Orleans Ice Cream Co. did a great job and there is a reason why people rave over this flavor.

Grade: A-

Just saw Bob's post... Now wondering.
Didnt see a pint container anywhere there
 
Driven2lift said:
I will check next time

Wasnt on the menu in Toronto and I didn't see any pint containers

In Alberta there are scoop shops in Shopper Drug Marts lol according to the website that is. I'm feeling less depressed now about going out there. I hope they have pints!
 
The Solution said:
They do not display the pint containers, they just pack them themselves
they just say Hand packed:

Ever try to get them to mix flavours if they are not pre-packed?
 
The Solution said:
They will not mix flavors together, just ask them what flavor you want, and to have it hand packed, they will do so.
This is not Coldstone brother this is Ben&Jerry's haha

That will my first order of business after I move lol ... Hit up the scoop shop since grocery stores typically only sell the generic flavours like cookie dough and Cherry Garcia.

It seems the CDN website us showing retailers that sell pints when you search for scoop shops so I'm not sure if there is any at all... What a disappointment :(

Article claims B&J as best vanilla base.

The test included Ben & Jerry's Vanilla, Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla, Breyers Natural Vanilla, Edy’s Grand Vanilla, Friendly’s Vanilla, Häagen-Dazs Vanilla, Turkey Hill Vanilla Bean and Wells Blue Bunny All Natural Vanilla.

Thoughts?

I have only tried Breyers from that list so maybe BnJ vanilla is better, but is it the best out there. Highly doubt it.

I've had a better vanilla at a couple of restaurants ...
 
Haazen Daaz ginger molasses cookie

Base is pretty plain, just a cinnamon vanilla but honestly didn't taste much cinnamon which stinks cuz i like cinnamon alot. There were TONS of mix ins however.Some soft cookies some crunchy. This was great to keep me on my toes lol. Very good cookie flavor. Im guessing the plain base is meant to let the cookies shine which it does. I feel a caramel swirl wouldve taken it to a top notch pint.

Dumb question, but does DQ really flip thr ice cream upside down when they give it to you?

They have to it is a policy or else it is free
right on their webpage.

"The independent franchise owner of each restaurant decides whether the Blizzard® Treats in their location will be served upside down. Whether your next Blizzard® Treat is free if the employees forget or neglect to do so is determined by the independent franchise owner of each restaurant. Please check with the employees of each restaurant to see if they participate in this promotion."

That says its totally up to each owner

The chance of the Owner being in the store = minimal to none
most are corporate owned (over 80-85%+), most of the time you will not be in a franchise based store.
Just ask them to flip it upside down before you leave, or if they do not just complain i bet you will get a free one :)
