Well is it Ben & Jerry's or Haagen Dazs or Marble Slab? Cold Stone Creamery? Or some local maker?

Feel free to elaborate

I agree cold stone is pretty damn good...

My favorite of the big brands is probably Haagen Dazs...but the top three or four are pretty close IMO.

We have a couple locals that are pretty good too. Braums has some great ice cream and Maggie Moo's makes great super premium ice cream, but maggie's is pretty expensive.

my fiancee is lactose intolerant, and im not a fan of junk food

so...I have no idea what any of those brands taste like as I've never tasted them (I did have ice cream as a child, but we lived in a small town in PA so it was a local ice cream shop, the kind that pours out of a machine into a cone)

Yeah I realize by the dictionary definition its ice cream, but its full of air which is part of the reason it flows so easily.

You should pick up a pint of Ben & jerry's and Haagen Dazs and let me know what you think.

the original reason i gave up ice cream as a child was sensitive teeth...iirc my teeth are still sensitive

Cold Stone is incredibly.....I'm addicted. Thank god we don't have one near me in Philly or I'd go as often as I do when I'm in Buffalo (aka would be fat ).

Also, for general dessert confectionary goodness, here in Philly we have Naked Chocolate Cafe, called one of the top 10 chocolate shops in the world. If you want dessert, you simply are not going to beat it.

Cold Stones owns my part of the neighborhood and damn, it's delicious!

[Linzyhop]

whatever the trader joe's raspberry sorbet is.... YUM!

[kinggovernor]

I don't eat ice cream and not for medical reasons

[Linzyhop]

sorbet's not ice cream.

[Donkey®]

I don't eat it very often, but when I do, Baskin Robbins rocky road does it.

local place that makes their own ice cream is my fav. I don't think Ben & Jerry's or Haagen Dazs are anything special.

Maybe I'll try cold stone next time I walk by one.

Anyone tried "the ice cream of teh future" ? The taste isn't anything special but the texture is kinda cool. It's worth trying once.

I've been wanting to try some of Ben & Jerry's Stephen Colbert's Americone Dream

The flavor, Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream™ is a decadent melting pot of vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. It’s the sweet taste of liberty in your mouth.
