[New for 2020] So I went a little crazy in the freezer aisle and just started grabbing whatever I could like the Poptart bars. Time for impulse buy #2....
Good Humor WWE Super Stars Cookie Sandwiches
vanilla frozen dairy dessert between two vanilla wafers
Clear wrapper removed. There are four designs in all and the funny thing is that there is a design on each side (and if I hadn't been so tired, I probably would have photographed all four before eating one of them). Oh well. The other designs are Roman Reigns, Becky Lynch, and Macho Man Randy Savage. You know, I once saw a wrestler in a Florida airport... not sure which one... not sure how I knew he was a wrestler at this point...
Anywho, these taste as you might expect. Familiar light filling between two fairly sweet vanilla wafer. I have no particular issue with this treat. It's just not really my thing. I do love a classic ice cream sandwich (aka one with chocolate wafers), but vanilla never really hooks me unless there is some kind of X factor in the mix.

(though I admit the cutouts do amuse me)
Should I have went for the Dale Jr version with chocolate filling? Maybe.
On Second Scoop: not growing on me. I think they're just a bit too sweet. they don't have that balance of a classic ice cream sandwich.
Verdict? as expected
Buy Again? not really my thing
This is totally nostalgic! I used to get the WWF ice cream bars from the ice cream man in the 90's all of the time, and I loved it. This is why they have one of the late Macho Man Randy Savage. He was one of the wrestlers from the original bars. I like the idea of using vanilla wafers a lot and I wish more companies would get on board with it, particularly the generic brands.
ReplyDeleteI was tempted to put a stick in one and photograph it that way instead :)
ReplyDeleteThese really do appear to be quite “vanilla”. Dale Jr shows promise.
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't this have a layer of chocolate like the old school bars did??
