I've been saying I don't like coconut for so long that I don't even remember the last time I had some. I ate something with a little bit accidentally, maybe a year or two ago, but in general, I avoid it without exception.
Well, I had picked up some non-dairy cookie dough coconut milk "ice cream" for everyone to try. I had actually heard good things, so for some silly reason I thought I might like it.
I was wrong, so horribly horribly wrong. If you do not like coconut, do not go anywhere near this stuff. For some strange reason, for some moment of complete ineptitude, I thought this stuff wouldn't have a strong coconut flavor. Why? I don't know, I can only blame foolishness. My word, it's so strong! I just wanted to gag. To all the readers who love coconut, my deepest apologies, but this stuff is fowl, FOWL I say!
I aimed for cookie dough pieces but all I could taste was coconut. I will also say that the texture is not normal. It may be coconut MILK, but it is not cow's milk (or even goat's milk). I can't remember the last time I gagged but wow, wow oh wow, oh the memories are painful.... it will be years before I even think of something like a slice of German chocolate cake.
There's no second scoop on this one, but to be fair, here is
a very positive review from someone who actually likes coconut.
Update 2011/2012: Along the way, some "Purely Decadent made with Coconut Milk" flavors were flipped to so delicious flavors.
I despise coconut, but I will admit that the massive cookie dough chunks in this pint are epic.
