I content that ice cream is good for you. Doesn't make me gassy; doesn't raise my blood sugar; always makes me happy. Three out of four ain't bad. Ice cream is one of my favorite pleasures. I was going to say guilty pleasure but I don't feel guilty. You can never go wrong with ice cream! I order it once a week on Uber Eats and its far away so it costs me like 30 bucks with the big tip I have to give but I don't mind at all. Best money I spend during the week! Oops, I forgot to ask. What flavor ice cream?
Did you hear about that place in Manhattan that's selling $18 escargot bagels? I heard that people were on line waiting since 6AM for the store to open.

I'm an ice cream lover as well but pretty boring when it comes to flavors. I like vanilla bean (not french), chocolate, and occasionally strawberry or butter pecan. Suspect my ice cream choices would make Inger proud unless the Butter Pecan is too exotic.

Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey is another favorite of mine, I have to also include Beyer's Vanilla and Chocolate ice cream. I'm laughing because maybe it would have been easier and this post would have been shorter if I just mentioned ice creams that I didn't like.  |

I may have to try those escargot bagels. 
I love so many different flavors of ice cream. Unfortunately, here in suburbia delivery options are limited so I usually get Cold Stone. I get one of their signature creations, usually Birthday Cake Remix, Cookie Don't You Want Some, Or Cookie Minster.
My absolute favorite ice cream is in this Japanese marketplace in Edgewater, NJ where they serve Black Sesame ice cream. Just heavenly.

I don't think he has much ice cream anyway because he says it makes his blood sugar go up too much. Shame. |

Cold Stone makes delicious ice cream. I never had Black Sesame ice cream, but I looked it up and it sounds delicious. |

Cold Stone makes delicious ice cream. I never had Black Sesame ice cream, but I looked it up and it sounds delicious. Its amazing you have to try it. Like a cross between peanut butter and cookie dough, nutty, rich, and savory.
We have some great ice cream joints here in Princeton, NJ like Thomas Sweets and Bent Spoon. I go there often with friends but unfortunately they don't deliver. My favorite at Thomas Sweets is French Vanilla blended in with Sugar Cone. Bent Spoon is pretty famous too. They have a lot of unique flavors:
I could talk ice cream all day. Don't get me started.  |

It's been closed a long time now, but they used to make an excellent Lobster Cantonese, and they served it without the shell. Me and everyone I know that ate there says the same thing. "Wow, I miss that place." Loved that place and the food they served. By the way, they also served an excellent pistachio ice cream. |

Suspect my ice cream choices would make Inger proud unless the Butter Pecan is too exotic. You nailed me. I don’t want butter pecan. It was my mom’s favorite and it could be hard to prod her into buying other flavors. It became a flavor fatigue thing with me. My faves are : Green chocolate chip mint Chocolate marshmallow Creamsicle Vanilla with chocolate syrup… |

Pistachio to me is like… catsup, mustard, onions, coconut… 🤢 |
