I was so disappointed when the core faded out halfway down the pint. Whut up with that? After that actually sprinkled a little salt on the ice cream to compensate for the n=missing core. I think the core is just the right amount of saltiness when mixed with the surrounding ice cream.

Not too many of Ben and Jerry's flavors with no chocolate. Sure I can have strawberry and butter pecan, and boring vanilla but I love Ben and Jerry's Salted Caramel Core which is a substitute for chocolate for me. And I am salt sensitive but find the core mixed with the creamy is a good blend and I don't notice the salt too much.

I took one quick dip into it and I knew what to expect from there. I shaved it into the ice cream bit by bit with each scoop and it tasted PERFECT. Then, when I got to the bottom, I mixed the core with the half-melted ice cream and gobbled it up. Why don't more ice creams have blonde brownies in them...? (I will be trying that Rockin' Blondie flavor too, thank you.)<br /><br />Yes, the salt in the core could use a bit of moderation, but as it is, I'm going to take it as a safeguard against people like me, who'd gobble the pint up in one round otherwise. This flavor is two thumbs up from me.Aronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05246766638830069285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-6894304644619141082014-08-15T21:10:48.189-04:002014-08-15T21:10:48.189-04:00This is my favorite ice cream flavor ever.

I recently had to use B&J's thrifty "Flavor Locator" to find a pint of it when I just couldn't curb my craving for it. I recommend this flavor to all of my family members and friends and they all come back with rave reviews as well. <br />As far as the core being overwhelming, I try to get a bit of the core in each spoonful of ice cream, but never just a spoonful of core. My husband, however, enjoys a spoonful of core with just a small amount of ice cream. Even my infant enjoys a little taste of the caramel core. This flavor is definitely a family favorite.Ashleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-20783322977843982132014-07-16T11:52:20.713-04:002014-07-16T11:52:20.713-04:00Anon, Totally agree with you.

I liked the ice cream, but the core really ruined it for me. It wasn't the salt - that I liked - but the ratio of core to ice cream just doesn't work. Way too much core - it overwhelmed everything else. We ended up eating around the core and throwing it away. Turns out the concept doesn't work. For me, anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-8438667205378153152014-05-15T18:19:19.250-04:002014-05-15T18:19:19.250-04:00Anon, no I haven't but that just grossed me ou...Anon, no I haven't but that just grossed me out by the thought of it being similar to the core.Nick Rovohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03431863638273330331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-43602614331049621352014-05-15T11:21:18.322-04:002014-05-15T11:21:18.322-04:00I don't know if you have ever had "eel sa...I don't know if you have ever had "eel sauce", or that syrupy, slightly sweet, soy sauce that sometimes is put on sushi, but the core of this ice cream is a dead ringer...more than a little off putting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-80905609458106080732014-03-24T23:04:51.375-04:002014-03-24T23:04:51.375-04:00@Anon, I feel your excessive use of exclamation po...@Anon, I feel your excessive use of exclamation points is caused by how dehydrated the core made you.Nick Rovohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03431863638273330331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-91062949323494555232014-03-24T22:31:25.054-04:002014-03-24T22:31:25.054-04:00So Glad!

They had those great big chunks on hand from Rockin' (the only good component of THAT pint), and it's like they minced them up into nothingness. The base and blondies come off as a budget ice cream because of this :( The salted caramel swirl, excellent texture, but that taste was not right. And I LOVE me some salty, salty caramel.
