I'd love to see a Hershey miniature ice cream with vanilla with little pieces of all the different miniature bars inside. That's a candy explosion for you.Anne Suttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09519033840367690707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-3403265115595397362016-03-27T16:51:51.717-04:002016-03-27T16:51:51.717-04:00Edy's has given up on frozen dairy dessert, bu...Edy's has given up on frozen dairy dessert, but they still use a good amount of food science for their regular and light ice creams.Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-85336805850690312082016-03-27T16:46:59.167-04:002016-03-27T16:46:59.167-04:00I am not inclined to bother with these, but one st...I am not inclined to bother with these, but one star goes to Edys for at least using ice cream for these! If I remember correctly, a few years ago, they tried a bunch of mix-in favors (mint brownie, etc) with the frozen dairy dessert, Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569544046634558629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-77935822837037425852016-03-27T16:36:04.964-04:002016-03-27T16:36:04.964-04:00I havent bought the mint version yet, but looking ...I havent bought the mint version yet, but looking at my pictures from the store, yeah, they seem to have cheated and used the same mix-in. Boo for cheating on the name!<br /><br />I will also say that crunch bars arent nearly as awesome as they were when I was a kid. Crunch was one of my favorite candy bars back than but quality has definitely declined over the years.Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-82245431544472268422016-03-27T15:41:28.263-04:002016-03-27T15:41:28.263-04:00Assuming they were the same pieces as in the Mint ...Assuming they were the same pieces as in the Mint Crunch, mine consistently had an odd texture. It's been several Halloweens since I remember eating a Crunch bar, but while I wasn't expecting the rice crispies to be super crisp or to really "crunch" in an ice cream, these just felt weird across my teeth (and the flavor wasn't as good as I remember Crunch bars being). Whereas the Crunch bar seemed to have at least some solid chocolate (i.e. the top layer didn't have visible rice crispies), these almost seemed to just be rice crispies enveloped in a thin layer of chocolate; maybe the ice cream was just using Buncha Crunch instead of pieces of normal Crunch bars.<br /><br />Even if my memory is imagining a tastier Crunch bar that didn't exist, the pieces (which were relatively plentiful, as you'd expect from a Grand flavor) felt unpleasant and tasted just OK to me, a disappointment for the primary selling piece of the flavors.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
