Ice Cream Flavours
Wednesday, July 16th, 2008
Elton John is the latest celebrity to have an ice cream flavour named in his honour at Ben & Jerry’s. The Rocket Man is playing his first-ever concert in Vermont (where the ice cream giant is based) on July 21. As a result, “Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road” will be available at Vermont locations only from July 18-25, with proceeds going to the Elton John AIDS Foundation. The flavour is described as “an outrageous symphony of decadent chocolate ice cream, peanut butter cookie dough, butter brickle and white chocolate chunks”. Sounds decadent!
I rarely eat ice cream in the winter, but readily admit that I have it for dinner every now and then in the summer. :) At Dairy Queen, I’ll order a chocolate dipped cone. At Baskin-Robbins, I’ll have mint chocolate chip in a sugar cone. If I happen upon an ice cream truck, swirl soft ice cream (chocolate and vanilla) is what I’ll have.
What is your favourite flavour of ice cream? Do certain flavours bring back childhood memories? Do you prefer hard or soft ice cream? Has melted ice cream ever ruined something for you?
