I was just watching some football (Redskins/Cowboys) and enjoying some Ben & Jerry's Red Velvet Cake ice cream (Yummmy!)..while it's hard to love my team the Redskins...it's never hard to love ice cream. :D

There's alot of ice cream talk around here...but I didn't see a thread solely dedicated to the love of ice cream..so here it is.

I love pretty much anything from Ben & Jerry's and Haagen Dazs' Creme Brulee flavor is awesome.

What's your favorite ice cream?
Favorite brand?
Do you like your ice cream "naked" or with toppings?

    I adore ice cream. I once ate it for breakfast/lunch/dinner for over a month (aside from when I was at work because it would have melted) :oops: :oops: It has to have a vanilla-type base though. I don't like chocolate. My favorite is Cold Stone birthday cake remix, but any vanilla with stuff in it (cookies and cream, cookie dough, etc) or plain vanilla will do. You can pretty much take anything away from me, but keep your hands off of my ice cream!!! :twisted:

    while its not ice cream it IS a frozen dessert that stocks right next to IC at the store.

    Here recently we have been getting sorbet. Different flavors. Lemon is very intense and tart. I really like the mango. GF likes the peach.

    The other thing about ice-cream that I love is that it is never too cold for ice-cream.

    It could be the middle of winter but I'll still have a bowl of it...

    I do love ice cream - I grew up eating Spumoni ice cream.

    I was just talking to someone about this flavor - its very Italian.

    I've recently discovered cookies & cream mint ice cream at the grocery store. Two of my favorites rolled into one! And today I added Double Stuff Oreos to it. Yum! My favorite from Baskin Robbins is their daiquiri ice. They got rid of it for awhile & I almost had a meltdown. Thank God they brought it back! :D

    Last year I saw a recipe for a pumpkin pie milkshake...you take a slice of pumpkin pie + vanilla ice cream + a little milk and blend it up...might have to try this this year...

    I'm with cbg...I don't like chocolate ice cream.

    Rocky Road= :sick:

    but I love:
    Ben and Jerry's: Red Velvet Cake, Tiramisu, cookie dough, strawberry cheesecake, mint chip

    also love those little cups of orange sherbert and vanilla ice cream

    I'm gonna go have some Schweddy Balls now...
