Talk about reading and writing comprehension!

Breyers' is NOT a premium brand, Blabster.

You just keep exposing your lame self here!

I don't know about some of these others but Blue Bell is waaay better than Ben & Jerry's or Haagen Daas IMO.

As a dark chocolate lover, I appreciate their rocky road. Godiva markets the BEST dark chocolate in the national premium brand category, imho.

But I'm sure many of these regional brands beat both of the above.

And, again, Breyers' is an A-1 non-premium choice. They were originally a local Philly brand, and used to come out with flavors you no longer see from them from time to time, such as a Dutch Chocolate flavor that truly kicked ass. Their peach and strawberry flavors still rule in the "regular" category.

Breyer's tastes the best to me, of the store-bought brands.

As for ice cream shops, Goodberry's frozen custard is head and shoulders above anything else.

LOL, long before Pabster was ever an annoying troll in P&N, he was an annoying troll here.

Cafe Gelato on Main St. right next to my University has this ridiculously awesome coconut+whole cocoa bean ice-cream. Made a 95 degree day feel like late fall.

ben and jerry's is nasty hippy shit
haagen daz is subpar german carnival ice cream
marble slab is an abomination to ice cream
eady's is good for store bought
coldstone is the best ice cream stand bought
blue bell is high on the list of store bought
beyers is sickening
brewsters is overpriced cold horse shit
store brands are usually quite tastey

Thing is, he's completely wrong. Is Ben & Jerry's the best ice cream, or are you insane like my friend?
If you're going to post that you prefer half-water reduced fat cheapo flavored frozen milk juice, this is not the thread for you. Serious connoisseurs only need apply. :thumbsup:

Haagen Daaz ftw, I have been to several of their plant facilities and they make it very well with very little air content.

Graeters is the best ice cream that I have ever had. They are local to Northern Kentucky and the Cincinnati area.

Highly recommended if you are in the area.

I'd reply, but your unfathomable love of the marketing hype that's Ben & Jerry's sole claim to fame would render you incapable of understanding the answer. There are hundreds of better ice creams than that hippie crap, here's hoping to you growing up enough to someday figure that out for yourself.

I'd refute your entire post without even trying, but your confused and inane dislike of everything that is good and pure in this world would just keep you from understanding the words. Maybe one day you'll realize that you'd be happier if you quit reacting against anything with a catchy slogan or pleasant packaging and judged ice cream based on its deliciousness. :beer:

I'd like to be there when your IQ raises high enough for you to finally have that "D'OH!!" moment and comprehension dawns on you that you will NEVER find good ice cream in a supermarket. Given how deeply you're in denial and how fanatically you've swallowed the marketing hype that doesn't seem likely to happen in this life time. But there is one indisputable truth to mass market consumerism: The same people who buy ice cream from a supermarket buy pizza from Dominoes, Mexican food from Taco Bell and deli sandwiches from Subway. They just don't know any better.

So why are you such a HD fan? That's more often in grocery stores than Ben & Jerry's. I'm not going to bother mocking your comparison of Ben & Jerry's to Domino's, Taco Bell, and Subway. Sleep well knowing that I'm right.

McConnels.

Seems to be a local brand. But the ingredient list reads like what I use to make homemade icecream, Milk, cream, powdered milk, cane sugar, peppermint oil. For their peppermint icecream. Unlike some others that use eggs, guar gum or locust bean gum, and other ingredients that you have to google to figure out what they are.

Simple is always best for food.

Häagen Dazs is overrated and not really any better than Breyer's. I think people like it because of the fake german name.

Hansen's Dairy out of Green Bay is my favorite ice cream by a longshot.
Otherwise I like Custard Cup out of Danville Illinois.
When it comes to more well known places, I'm pretty happy with Baskin Robbins 31 flavors/Coldstone/Oberweiss/Dairy Queen.
