Good Humor has a lot of different products, this poll is restricted to the currently available ice-cream-bars-on-a-stick, which are: [Strawberry Shortcake](http://www.marinaicecream.com/images/GH%20Strawberry%20Shortcake%20Bars.gif) [Chocolate Eclair](http://www.marinaicecream.com/images/GH%20Chocolate%20Eclair%20Bars.gif) [Toasted Almond](http://i.walmartimages.com/i/p/00/04/10/00/05/0004100005167_500X500.jpg) [Original](http://www.drivethrugroceries.net/mm5/graphics/00000001/Good%20Humor%20Ice%20Cream%20Bar%204oz.jpg) (chocolate dipped vanilla) [Candy-Center Crunch](http://goldcoasticecream.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/candy-center-crunch.jpg) [Oreo](http://www.goodhumor.com/Images/519/519-114376.png) Cookies and Cream (I couldn’t find a picture) Most stores I’ve been to usually only have the first 4. Cookies and Cream I’ve never seen, and I’ve only seen the Oreo and Candy-Center Crunch on the side of ice-cream trucks. Anyway, given _only those choices_ (and you can only have one!), which do you prefer? ---

They don’t sell Toasted Almond bars in my part of the country anymore. I am bummed. ☹ But they are my favorite. ---

Toasted Almond is my favorite as well. ---

When I was a kid, and the Good Humor truck came around the neighborhood, I always got the toasted almond bar. ---

I can’t vote for some reason but Toasted Almonds are my favorite. ---

I was at the store yesterday and all they had was the Strawberry Shortcake. It wasn’t what I wanted but I bought them anyway. Still enjoyable, but definitely not as good as Toasted Almond. ---

I think I have to go with boring old original (the closest thing to a Klondike bar). ---

Growing up, I knew Good Humor only through references in TV shows and comic books. It was years before I relaized it was a real brand. We had other brands out where I was. The “heart” logo in some of the OP’s links are similar to the UK-based [Wall’s ice cream](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall%27s_%28ice_cream%29) that we have in Thailand. Is there a relation? Wall’s is owned by Unilever. ---

> [@Siam\_Sam](#): > > Wall’s is owned by Unilever. Yup, same parent company (Unilever). ---

Why are there only 3 recoreded votes for Toasted Almond? ---

I don’t like strawberry ice cream except when it’s in bar form as part of the delectable Strawberry Shortcake. Growing up I always went with Toasted Almond but now find them a bit too sweet. ---

> [@Siam\_Sam](#): > > Since I’ve never had Good Humor per se, I’ll vote for Toasted Almond if you mail me $5. I think that there were 4 posts in favor of that particular flavor, but only 3 votes. Being slightly lactose intolerant, I don’t have a dog in this fight. ---

I haven’t had any of these in forever but I remember the Strawberry Shortcake ones were eeeeever so slightly salty. They’re probably all slightly salty, and that’s what makes them awesome! ---

> [@minlokwat](#): > > I don’t like strawberry ice cream except when it’s in bar form as part of the delectable Strawberry Shortcake. Same here. Not a fan of strawberry ice cream, but when it comes to Good Humor bars, it’s my favorite. No idea how that works, but there it is.
