I really prefer gelato or frozen custard over ice cream, with the custard at the burger chain Culver's taking the cake. That said, Wisconsin does have a decidedly right-wing custard joint called Kopp's that has some amazing pumpkin ice cream in the fall. There's also a company called Purple Door that makes a whisky ice cream that I will sing praises of.
I've actually been to Kopps as I have family in Milwaukee, is it fash? Is Oscar's the proletarian option?
So Kopps had a flavor of the day Pro-Life cupcake day. No shock they want more teenagers working their stands. I know Oscar's did at least one Photo Op with West Allis police in the past couple years, so admittedly that soured my attitude towards them. But of course, the petit bourgeois gonna do what they do.
Deeply cringe shit all around.
i love my choccy mint chip but halo top had(?) this green tea mochi flavor that was rly good
I hated that
the best ice cream i had is the mexican garrafa ice cream which is like a sorbet, in the city i live there is this big shop that makes like 50 different flavors, and from all of them my favorites are the chocoflan and kahlua ones
I'm lactose intolerant, and there's plenty of non-dairy ice cream options that are fine, buuuuut... I still indulge in eating a half carton of Private Selection chocolate ice cream from time to time. Not sure why that flavor. Not sure why I always think the tummy ache is worth it. But it's what I do.
Kawartha's Key Lime Pie or its orange sorbet. Don't really like ice cream, but i'll make an exception when i would be stopping off at chip trucks on the road. Just gives that little moral boost.
Edit: just realized that i use a small bucket of pc label yuzu ice cream to hold my spare change. It somehow managed to make it across the atlantic during the move.
Oh, if you get the opportunity, try Blue Moon ice cream
It's a flavor that defies all expectations, mainly because no one can tell what exactly it's supposed to be
Every place that makes it does their own little variation on it, some are kind of marshmallowy vanilla with fruit notes, some are kinda sweet almond and light lemony
Either way, very very good and very, very much a Midwestern thing (though I have found it in the Northeast a few times, mainly from grocery stores)
Also, most places that sell Blue Moon also sell Superman, which is Blue Moon, cherry and yellow vanilla mixed together, which is also very good
Isn't it like fruity pebbles flavor?
Some of them get like that, but others it's more complex
It's one of those things where nobody makes it same way and so you have to try them all to find which manufacturer does it in the exact way you like
i fucking love affogato
I don't like ice cream. The texture is so strange
