Where, is it only from the B&J brand ?

Nah, you can buy it in the grocery store.

My favorite is Black Raspberry Chip from Graeter's.

Honeycomb ice cream made with thick, Devonshire clotted cream.
Mmmm....

I once went to Nice in France, where in the old town they had this huge ice cream place, and when I say huge, the ice cream bar was about 15 yards long! They had everything, from nougat, to Mars bar, Grand Marnier, rose petal, even spinach and tomato!

Nardini's Vaniila from largs is teh best ice cream, but can we expand this to all summer-esque treats? If so, Orange Maid Ice lollies and Hagen Daz (sp) Rasberry Sorbet (where on earth has it gone!?!).

Real Italian ice-cream!

Just to walk along virtually any street in say, Rome for example, and stroll into a gelateria and marvel at the galaxy of delicious ice-creams. Mama-Mia!

Real ingredients, real flavours, the real thing! Then you come back to the UK and realise what crap we are being palmed-off with.

Probably pistacchio.

As long as it's frozen Red Peasant ;)

Either cookies and cream or chocolate fudge chunk.

I don't know it's too hard to chose. There's really no ice cream I dislike.

Very true, at the supermaket down the road they just opened up a counter selling hand made ice cream. I had a little tub full of sumptuous chocolate and another flavour called latte. Delicious....

Ice cream, my only weakness...

I tend to enjoy any kinds of ice cream but I must say that Ben & Jerrys is just great.

I also like ice lollies, do they come into it? And the ice cream chocolate bars, they're cool. Like Mars and Snickers.

Cookie Dough flavour, btw.

Amaretto beats all ice cream. In fact, it beats all other desserts (except hash brownies, but that's a different matter entirely.)

**Gregoshi** · 06-11-2006, 01:54

Ice cream is my one big weakness. I'm to the point I've got to have some every day. I'm like Mount Suribachi - some right before bedtime is my usual fix.

As for flavour, it is a tough call, but my favourite is probably chocolate peanut butter - veins of frozen peanut butter meandering through chocolate ice cream.

Ice cream makes the world a better place to be.

Ben and Jerrys, Chunky Monkey.

Ahh, brings back memories of a school skiing trip to Italy about 15 years ago....one night they gave us Lemon Sorbet for pudding......oh my oh my, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven! I know its technically not Ice Cream, but its close enough

Mind you, that was the same hotel that gave us all food poisoning! Ever been sick 6 times in one hour whilst walking round Venice? Still, got me a couple of days off school when we got back
