OT Favorite Ice Cream Flavor

This. Wish I could get it.

 

Got turned on to gelato. Can't go wrong here.

 

I was able to get it at Publix when I was living in Florida. Cost me an arm and a leg, but it was available.

 

Thanks! I'll check next time we're down there late Fall!

 

Only if you enjoy sitting on a zipper.....it's time to buy new matching track suits for the wife and I now that I'm retired....joining the elderly elastic waist band club..(I heard the secret handshake is actually not a handshake but a wedgie!)

 

@EL PRESIDENTE sighting!!

 

I'll add that I like Tillamook brand the best. I used to like Alpenrose, but I'm not sure if it changed or it's not still around?

 

Alpenrose made Van Duyn's - another favorite of mine. The Van Duyn's was specially made with a higher butter fat percentage.

 

Alpenrose also made Baskin-Robbins. They don't any more though.

 

That gelato is so good.

 

I'll never forget being a young sailor in San Francisco in 1971 and having gelato and a canoli for the first time in North Beach....also probably my first real fresh ground cup of coffee..you picked a great place for good food!

 

Talenti is some good stuff.

 

I have some Tilamook Peaches and Cream in the freezer right now. Hoping to hit up the creamery when in Oregon next month

 

Burgerville has the best soft serve. Their strawberry shortcake sundaes are the bomb when they are the seasonal item

 

Dairy Queen dipped cones are a classic from way back that I still think are amazing

 

In Wisconsin they dont serve ice cream, its frozen custard.

 

In Iowa growing up we made our own ice cream but it was a real treat on a Satruday night to go to Dairy Queen and get dipped cones....found memories..living on a dairy farm we never bought the stuff from the store to bring home..we'd have 5 gallons of chocolate and 5 gallons of vanilla all the time....I used to make ice cream for the family when I moved out here and it was always blackberry vanilla because blackberries were everywhere...as a kid on the farm we had the hand crank ice cream makers.....when I grew up and made it I got spoiled with the electric one.
