I considered putting this thread in the Pit - this ice cream is just that good. I can eat a 1.5-quart (or whatever size it is) in 2 sittings, which is not good for me. I’ve purchased two containers so far. I will not be buying a third because I need to lose some weight, and why make it harder than it has to be? :o It’s not the best ice cream I’ve ever tasted, however. THAT was Malted Moose Tracks, made temporarily by a local company. For the same reason, I’m glad they didn’t make it for very long. ---

The memories, too! And I didn’t even buy any Girl Scout cookies this season. Maybe this made up for it. ---

It’s not ice cream. It’s frozen dairy desert. ---

Just the name sounds like it could be crack to me. Almost swimsuit season - have to stay away. 😛 ---
