@Anon2:...@Anon1: no need for this to be this spicy<br /><br />@Anon2: So this marks the 15th flavor I've tried from them and I would argue that I enjoyed the first (faux) pint the most. I don't think that it's a bad product overall, but I do question a few tactics. One, while I enjoy new flavors, I don't love the constant short lived nature of their flavor rotation. Two, do you have the same problem with the dried out mix-ins that I almost always seem to? Three, I often question how they dial in their flavors. I often feel like with a bit of tweaking, they could really be something special. That said, I keep telling myself to try them less, but then they come out with something and I go "hey, maybe this is the pint that will convert me to a true fan".<br /><br />@Allie: thank you for the info, I have updated the post!Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-11160478676068442862022-12-30T19:09:29.864-05:002022-12-30T19:09:29.864-05:00I haven't tried their King Cake yet, but they ...I haven't tried their King Cake yet, but they have a third new flavor too - Red Velvet Cake for Valentine's Day. It was...okay. I might just be biased against it, though. I loved Ben & Jerry's Red Velvet and pretty much just wanted it to be that, and it wasn't. Their Marzipan flavor has been my favorite so far. Well, that and their weird ones.Allie Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-85471938190987416612022-12-30T17:37:49.420-05:002022-12-30T17:37:49.420-05:00Real q: have you ever enjoyed a Van Leeuwen flavor...Real q: have you ever enjoyed a Van Leeuwen flavor? I’ve tried a couple after reading your reviews, and have thought that they’re fine. Then again, you are MUCH deeper into ice cream than I am! But at what point do you acknowledge that their style isn’t suited to your preferences?
