Stewart's Shops Oatmeal Cranberry Cookie Ice Cream

[By Nick] It seems like oatmeal cookies are finally getting some love in the ice cream world. After Ben & Jerry's killing off Oatmeal Cookie Chunk, the market was pretty barren in the oatmeal depart. In the past couple of years, Hershey's and Talenti both put out there own respectable options. Now there's a limited time option perfect for winter time out in the ice cream world.

Stewart's Eggnog Ice Cream

[By Nick] It's that time of the year again, when eggnog ice cream becomes a staple in a lot of companies offerings. Surprisingly, Stewart's doesn't have an eggnog ice cream. Well, they didn't until this year anyway. I say surprisingly because they offer their eggnog year round and are very proud of it. Their eggnog was the first actual eggnog I ever tried and it was pretty awesome. I'm hoping this excellence translates to their new ice cream offering.

[By Nick] Happy First Day of Fall, everyone!‎ Oh how I love Fall. It's by far my favorite season. Not just because of the cooler weather, Halloween or even the fact that my birthday happens to fall in Fall (see what I did there? I'm a tool). It's all the seasonal products that are gracing the shelves as we speak. From Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts to all the varieties of candy corn. I'd have no problem eating fall seasonal products year round. I mean, Monster Cereals are back! How can you start your morning without Count Chocula? The answer is you can't without it being sad and meaningless.

Okay, well I just got side tracked really bad. I think I might be turning into Dubba. Please, send help. Now what was I supposed to be writing about? Oh yeah, Stewart's Fall Seasonal Ice Creams!

Stewart's Happy Camper Ice Cream

[By Nick, Seasonal] Hello everyone, Nick here. It's Monday and another new episode of The Nosh Show is out for your listening pleasure. Since Dubba was on vacation, I got to fill in for him on episode 59. Minus some mic issues on my end, I had a great time. We talked about a couple of new Oreo products, pizza fried chicken from KFC Japan and recapped the Summer Fancy Food Show that Eric, another guest, Maria from Sometimes Foodie,‎ and I attended. You can check the first part of my SFFS recap here and expect the second out soon! Enjoy the podcast and let me know what you thought in the comments. Now my nosh of the week has a little story to go behind it....

Stewart's Espresso Therapy Ice Cream

[By Nick] Two reviews of products with the word "espresso" in their name in a week? It must be midterm season for me. I've been meaning to review more flavors from Stewart's so let's get right into this one.

Stewart's Crumbs along the Mohawk Ice Cream Review

[By Nick] I think it’s about time I make all of you who don’t live in Upstate New York (and a small part of Vermont) jealous. Seeing as Stewart’s Shops are pretty much a local thing I’ll keep the background story short. They started out in the dairy business and then transitioned into opening up convenience stores. Starting out with just one store in 1945, they’ve grown to 328 stores throughout 30 counties. I have a lot of fond memories of Stewart’s, be it their policy of getting a free/reduce priced scoop of ice cream on Holidays if you did something specific, to the times when I’d be running behind in the morning and could pretty much get whatever I needed while filling up my gas tank. You also can’t forget their make your own sundae bar which led to my obsession with creating epic ice cream sundaes. Stewart’s is a major fixture in most of the communities around these parts. They’re also big on giving back and this year alone they'll donate $2.25 million of their profits to charities.

Now let’s move on to the ice cream shall we. Wait, one more thing about Stewart’s. They offer their ice cream in four different mediums. They come in half gallons, by the scoop, hand packed pints or in pre-made pints. I know it might seem uneconomical to buy the pre-made pints but they differ from the the half gallons because they’re more along the premium lines while the half gallons are more of your standard quality. Also with a normal price of $2.79, they’re still way cheaper than your typical pint of Haagen-Dazs or Ben & Jerry’s.

Stewart’s has an array of flavors but one of my favorites has to be their Crumbs Along The Mohawk ice cream. Described as “Graham cracker flavored ice cream with a graham cracker pieces and a caramel swirl” what’s not to love about this flavor?
