Would You Buy It? 2.5 Gallons of Haagen-Dazs

Ok, I've been meaning to post these pictures that vocaltaffy sent almost three weeks ago. Apparently in California there is a surplus store where you can buy scoop shop sized containers of ice cream at incredibly low prices.

Turkey Hill Caramel Peanut Butter Gelato Swirls

[Only for 2016] Funny, here we are again with another caramel and peanut butter combo. The Target version was a lot of fun because of all the mini pb cups, so let's see how this compares.

Target - Archer Farms Mint & Fudge Ice Cream

[2016 only] I really enjoyed Target's new Peanut Butter Caramel flavor so let's see if they can go two for two with....

Blue Bell Cookie Two Step Ice Cream

RECALL ALERT: Certain containers of this flavor were recalled today, thank you for everyone that pointed it out. Specifics can be found here on Blue Bell's site. They are saying an outside firm delivered possibly contaminated cookie dough chunks. Please check your containers.

[New for 2016, by CT of Nerd Lunch] Oh people, how you love your froyo and your over-indulgence of toppings mixed with multiple yogurt flavors. If I love Snickers pieces on ice cream and I love marshmallows on ice cream and I love butterscotch sauce on ice cream, why wouldn't I love all three together? I guess on some level that makes sense. Although that's not how it works for me. I'm a man of simple taste. When I hit the froyo place, I get one base flavor and maybe one complementary flavored topping. It's a different philosophy and neither approach is right or wrong.

Hershey's Birthday Cake Kisses and The Nosh Show Episode 87

Hello Nosh Show listeners! Episode 87 is alive and well and hoping you'll give it a listen. We recap several new products including Hersheys' Birthday Cake Kisses.

Perry's Pumpkin Spice Latte Ice Cream

[New for Fall 2016] You know what I love about Perry's? Their willingness to try something new. They have a range of classic flavors but they get today's media cycle. They realize that you need a mix of beloved regulars and new stuff. Not all of the new flavors will work, but who cares, it's how you learn and grow [don't worry, their excellent pumpkin ice cream is back again as well].

Friendly's Chocolate Cake Krunch Sundae Cup

[New for 2016] If you are like me, it means you are not a morning person. I'm ok with being quiet for the first few hours of the day, and that's just in general, but what happens when you get in to that funk where you can't seem to sleep for more than five or six hours every night? Well, you wake up cranky, and what does cranky call for? Chocolate.

Trader Joe's Organic Vanilla Fudge Chip Ice Cream

[New for August 2016] The freezer aisle is pretty boring right now. Actually, it kind of maddeningly boring. That was a hard word to spell, but anyway. All the seasonal and limited stuff has been repeats this year and all the new stuff got dumped at the beginning of the year, so where does that leave me? Should I start hibernating during the second half of the year? Maybe I should just head to Trader Joe's since I haven't been there in awhile.

Cumberland Farms Amazing Apple Pie Ice Cream

When I picked up Cumberland Farms latest Ultimate scoop flavor, I used their 2 for $7 promotion to pick up a second pint as well. School time means fall time, so I think something seasonal is in order.

Domino's Salad, Cinnamon Donut Chips Ahoy, Boo-tterscotch M&M's and the Nosh Show Ep 86

Hello Nosh Show Listeners! Episode 86 is now live! Yup, #86, that's not a typo. Don't forget that the Nosh Show is moving to a weekly format so I'll be posting my episodes here, but if you need more food podcast fix, keep an eye on thenoshshow.com for a weekly update. We have a bit of fun teasing Marvo about the expansion, but then it was time to get down to business.

The Curious Creamery Ice Cream Cake Mix

[New for 2016] At the beginning of summer, the Curious Creamery sent over free samples of their two new products. I had a blast trying out their quart sized ice cream mix, but now it's time to step up to the big leagues and try to make a cake.
