Ironically, I am<br />In San Diego right now - and just found Salty S'mores and the Sundae Fundae. My little brother thinks the former is the best ice cream he has ever tried. I enjoyed both, but think the Balsamic dig and dirty mint chip are still my favorites. The chocolate molten lava cake is my least favorite.<br /><br />I agree that their ice cream sandwiches are fantastic. Just tried the strawberry snickerdoodle ... awesome!

Basically the only way you know how to defend your position is by saying it's an absolute (aka "terrible") in your first comment. You then follow this up by attacking me rather than defending your position. Good job proving his theory of cognitive dissonance (I apologize if those words are too big for you). Now will you respond with a thoughtful defense of your original position or just call me another name?<br /><br />@anon246: I don't think they push a ton of new flavors though I guess that could change if they continue to grow.

Your "absolute" opinion doesn't do anyone any good. A much better way to state your feelings would be something like "I went in excited to try coolhaus pints since their sandwiches have such a great reputation, but I was personally offended by the level of mix-ins after I shelled out $5.99 for this pint". See, that we can all understand. Yes, the level of figs probably dropped off as I finished the pint, but in no way would I suggest that any of the three flavors I have tried are terrible. I bit more subdued than expected, yes. Terrible? No.<br /><br />If you want to be offended by no mix-ins, you should have tried those BLVD ice creams that were made by High Road and hawked by Whole Foods. Now that was offensive!Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-45887745221873682112017-06-03T13:34:27.731-04:002017-06-03T13:34:27.731-04:00Coolhaus pints are terrible.

They sent me a coupon for free products and assured me they are working on the 'inclusions.' I will probably use the coupon on their ice cream sandwiches which are fine and stay clear of them from now on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-92008588058037306212017-06-03T12:26:49.636-04:002017-06-03T12:26:49.636-04:00I would love to try this flavor or anything in a p...I would love to try this flavor or anything in a pint they make!

My only concern is the balsamic flavoring. Its almost always easily distinguishable/overpowering and always reminds me of salad. (Neither of which are good things LOL)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
