[New for Early 2025] I mentioned these big faux quarts not making a ton of sense, but it's still Ben & Jerry's, so let's at least try one of them. I think we'll start with....
Ben & Jerry's Strawberries & Cream Scoop-a-palooza
sweet cream ice cream with strawberry swirls.
And I'm already sad that there are no mix-ins...
It's kind of fun to see how the swirl colored the base ice cream.
I take my first few bites and it's... strawberry B&J's. I think in an instance like this, it's noticeable that the strawberry flavor is coming from a swirl and not a base ice cream. It just comes across differently.
For the record, I didn't mean to try Ben & Jerry's strawberry flavors back to back, but unfortunately, that's what I've done here. Sorry about that.
Anyway.... I'm struggling to find something to say. I just don't buy B&J's for a flavor like this. I might do it with Haagen-Dazs, but not them. This is not their thing.
This is fine and all, but I just don't see it being a big hit. As Reacher said in season 3, he only does chocolate and vanilla, maybe strawberry in a pinch.
Actually, wait, I do need to lodge one minor complaint. I'm not 100% sure what it is, but there's something just a little off with how the strawberry comes across. I can't put my finger on it because I have another cold at the moment, but maybe I'll figure it out tomorrow.
"Made for Sharing"... .because you'll be too bored to finish it yourself.
On Second Scoop: Is the sweet cream base too sweet? Is that what's throwing me off? I think that I rarely say something is too sweet, but I don't know how else to convey what is tripping me up here. Oh well. I'll be sticking with my Tillamook Strawberry ice cream for the foreseeable future.
Verdict? boring
Buy Again? unlikely
Buy Again? unlikely
