It’s summer (well, almost). It had to be done. 😃 Mine? Baskin and Robbin’s Gold Medal Ribbon–heaven in a single scoop on a waffle cone. ---

If I am getting a scoop of ice cream, I tend to go towards chocolate-peanut butter flavors. I also like soft-serve with colored sprinkles. Yes - I am 2 years old. Susan ---

Vanilla bean, butterscotch, or strawberry with big pieces of strawberry in it. ---

Bryer’s Vanilla (yeah, it gots chunks o beans innit) with hot fudge on it. But if I can’t eat on the one I love, I’m a chocolate slut. Lucerme, Blue Bunny, Bryer’s, B & R – doesn’t matter. Unless you go stickin’ marshmallows & nuts in it. I don’t love Rocky Road, no. ---

Golden Vanilla, with that magic shell chocolate coating. If I’m feeling gaudy, the Ben and Jerry’s “Everything But the…” is painfully good. The description is \*Chocolate & Vanilla Ice Creams with HEATH® Bar Chunks, White Chocolatey Chunks, Peanut Butter Cups & Chocolatey-Covered Almonds. \* Need I say more? ---

Strawberry with lots and lots of real frozen strawberry chunks, please! I also love cookie dough (hold the rock-hard chocolate chips), or vanilla blends with pieces of cheesecake or pie (such as fruit, pie crust, graham crackers crumbles, or actual cheesecake bits. ---

Real Vanilla, made from a real custard base of double Cream, egg yolks and vanilla bean. It should be rich and so nice that adding anything too it is unnecessary. Bought Ice Cream: Ben and Jerry’s Caramel Sutra is pretty darned good. ---

Mint Chocolate Chip. Or plain vanilla dipped in a peanut butter shell. ---

Phish Food: chocolate ice cream with caramel and marshmallow sauce and little chocolate fish. Ben & Jerry are evil and must be destroyed. ---

Breyer’s chocolate or Peach. God damn. That peach ice cream is _especially_ good on a hot summer day. (Kalhoun ankles down to the vending machine to grab an Eskimo Pie) ---

Real Chocolate Chip. Not the kind with chocolate chunks that have to be chewed. The kind with almost flake-like chips that melt on your tongue. Baskin Robbins has a good one, but we no longer have a franchise here. :mad: Schwan’s is good also. Carnation is even better, but not stocked at any of the markets here (if they still distribute to grocery stores). :mad: :mad: I think I need an ice cream freezer. ---

Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream. And oddly enough, my favorite brand is Meijer. I don’t who they are comparing it too, but it rocks. A close second is the flurry with reese’s peanut butter chunks in it made by my local Frosty Boy. ---

No such thing as a bad ice cream - I haven’t met one I don’t like. I can’t pick a favourite. Too many of them. I like Ben and Jerry’s, Dove, Hagan Daas, the Dreamery, Blue Bunny, store brands, unknown brands… all of them. Any flavour. As long as it’s not something like fish. Or garlic. I even like green tea ice cream. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/favourite-ice-cream-flavour/302701.md?page=2)
