In the case of anything blended with vanilla, it just makes the anything that much more milder.Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-24484000394208963542019-05-30T22:26:53.803-04:002019-05-30T22:26:53.803-04:00While the purple looked cool, I was expecting it t...While the purple looked cool, I was expecting it to be more red, white and blue like the US flag/the name of the product instead of purple and white. Could you taste the strawberry and blueberry separately, or were they essentially combined into a single flavor?<br /><br />What was the ice cream split in terms of strawberry vs. blueberry (or, depending on above, strawberry/blueberry combo) vs. vanilla? From the description, I was expecting the fruit flavors to be the vast majority while the vanilla was a swirl (15-20%), but your pictures looked more like a typical vanilla base (60-70%) with a fruit swirl.<br /><br />Or the description was somewhat deceptive: instead of saying a more standard "vanilla ice cream with a swirl of blueberry and raspberry ice creams", a quick glance might lead people (at least dumb ones like me) that the primary flavors were the fruit ones since they were listed first.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
