    Where are you, Canadia?!

    Nope. I'm smack dab in the middle of the USA.

    (ETA: My ticker might be a hint.)

    I thought about that, but one of my friends is in the UK, and has a NY Rangers jersey as her avatar, so I wasn't sure. :smile:

    You should be able to find it at Target and Hyvee, if there's one near you. I just saw there's another store near me that carries it, so I'm going to see if they have the German Chocolate Cake. :bigsmile:

    It's not at *my* Hyvee stores. I have two in my city, but neither one carries it. I did find one at one of the Walmart stores in my city, so I will check that out.

    Also, I work across the street from a "high end" grocer downtown, and they told me that they are going to be adding various brands of gelato "this spring." So, super-stoked about that. :smokin:
    Look at the bright side, at least you have great BBQ. Unfortunately......it also comes with the Royals.

    Hey, unlike your UK friend, I root for the home team. If they don't win it's a shame. (:laugh:) But you'll find very few fair-weather fans in the KC area. The ones that don't root for KC teams are usually suburban drunks who just like to be ornery and start fights.


    But, yeah, BBQ.... 'nuff said there...

    Argh, way too late for this one... plus, our store selection of ice cream here in the Uk is absolutely abysmal.
    Though...we do have two ice cream parlours selling rather a lot of varieties of Gelato.

    It is never too late!

    Day 1: Breyer's Tiramisu Gelato; 1/2 cup; 8/10; strong espresso and cream flavors, needs moar ladyfingers. Would bang again.
    Day 2: Ben & Jerry's Hazed and Confused Core; 1 cup; 7/10; really digging the hazelnut flavored ice cream and the hazelnut fudge "core," chocolate ice cream flavor is pretty standard, not a huge fan of fudge chip speed bumps. Enjoyable, but I probably won't buy it again.
    Day 3: Went to the new market by the gym to look at their interesting ice cream flavors, but I got side tracked by their hard cider options... 330 calories of delicious hard cider later, I realized there was no way to fit ice cream into my day. Wah wah. But the two days on the cleanse appears to be working; I was down a pound yesterday. I must resolve to get back on track today.
    Day 4: Breyer's Tiramisu Gelato; 1 cup. Pretty sure that Iliftheavyacrylic is correct; whoever approved the "servings per container" or the serving weight must be dead behind the eyes.
    Day 5: It happened again. Went to the new market to look at ice creams; got distracted by cider. On the plus side, I'm trying some really interesting artisanal ciders.
    Day 6 & 7: As is typical of me for cleanses and other dietary restrictions, the weekend really does me in. I was mostly good all week, but then Saturday and Sunday come along and derail me with pizza and beer.
    Day 8: Talenti's German Chocolate Cake Gelato; 1/2 cup. Sweet Jesus. I need this in my life. Every day. It's glorious. I'm incapable of more complex thought. It's a milk chocolate gelato with a caramel swirl and candied pecan and coconut pieces. 10/10, but would not bang again. Would respectfully court and woo with the intention of marrying. Would probably get serious and say "I love you" too soon. But we'd work it out because we're meant to be.
    Day 9: Talenti's German Chocolate Cake Gelato; 1/2 cup. So, we had our second date last night. Nothing too wild and crazy; we played a little Left4Dead2. I daresay the epic zombie-slaying may have brought us closer together (survivor's guilt, maybe). I know it's too soon to say this but... guys... I think she's the one. There's a lot to appreciate, but I frequently find myself getting lost in the caramel swirl. The occasional candied pecan breaks the trance, but what a way to come out of a reverie. ... SIgh.

    No gelato at my grocery store. Google says I can't buy any here:

    qn0h7r.png


    :sad:
    I think your Google must be broken. If not, then it's time to move.

    When I change the search from "shopping" to "web," I came up with some restaurants. None of the grocery stores have it though. They have ice cream, sorbet, and frozen yogurt. :ohwell:

    One of these days...

    Where are you, Canadia?!

    Yay!!! I went to Weis last night to check for the Talenti German Chocolate Cake, but they didn't have that one. If MrM27 hadn't posted a picture of it, I would've thought it was just an imaginary flavor we were being taunted with! Also, thanks to dunnodunno, I now know Weis has a Junior Mint flavor that I'm going to have to get in my belly sometime soon.

    Day 1: Safeway pumpkin pie ice cream (1/2 c)
    Day 2: Edy's slow churned peanut butter cup (1/2 c) chocolate peanut butter Pop Tart ice cream sandwich (see avatar)
    Day 3: Queen City Creamery's pistachio ice cream (free with lunch, about 1/2 c eyeballing it, and that's a sample!). If you're ever in Cumberland, MD, you have to visit this place. They have chocolate, vanilla and a flavor of the day. I had their sea salt caramel cashew a few months ago. A single scoop is like 2-3 servings' worth. Insanely delicious!
    Day 4: Turkey Hill Dutch chocolate ice cream (1/2 c) and birthday cake Pop Tart ice cream sandwich
    Day 5: Forte chocolate high protein gelato. Would definitely get this gelato again, maybe espresso flavor next. 160 cals, 2.5g fat, 19g carbs, 15g protein.
    Day 6: No room for a full serving, so I had one big spoonful of Talenti caramel cookie crunch (32g).
    Day 7: Safeway pumpkin pie ice cream. I hope they bring this back next year. Not as good as B&J's pumpkin cheesecake, but it's a close second.
    Day 8: Talenti caramel apple pie gelato (24g) and HD caramelized banana chip (22g). I was so excited to find these! Don't tell my boss I went ice cream shopping before I came in. :wink:
    Day 9: Edy's slow churned peanut butter cup (1/2 c) chocolate peanut butter Pop Tart ice cream sandwich.
    Day 10: Talenti caramel apple pie gelato (24g) and HD caramelized banana chip (22g).

    So... I fell off the wagon and didn't have any ice cream or gelato yesterday. I'm trying to adjust from 2700 calories to 2000 because I broke my foot and can no longer be active :grumble:

    However, today I discovered that Breyer's makes a Creamsicle flavor! I'm eating it right now! 110 calories per 1/2 cup! :love:

    Day 2: Tillamook Grandma's Cake Batter- 1/2 cup
    Day 3: Tillamook Grandma's Cake Batter- 1/2 cup
    Day 4: Tillamook Grandma's Cake Batter- 1/2 cup
    Day 5: Tillamook Grandma's Cake Batter - 1/2 cup
    Day 6: Tillamook Grandma's Cake Batter - 1/2 cup
    Day 7: The RAM Restaurant & Brewery- Strawberry Ice Cream Cupcake (Slow-churned sweet cream & real strawberry Dreyer’s ice cream. Layered with white cake. White chocolate cupcake shell).
    Day 8: Ben & Jerry's Peanut Butter Fudge Core- 1 cup (people stating that this isn't worth the calories are so incredibly wrong)
    Day 9: Ben & Jerry's Karamel Sutra- 1/2 cup- I am gonna side with this one over the Salted Caramel Core...but Peanut Butter Fudge is still winning.
    Day 10: Tillamook Grandma's Cake Batter- 1 1/2 cup-ish- finished it off!
    Day 11: Ben & Jerry's Red Velvet Cake- 1/2 cup- I am very disappointed. What a waste of calories :(

    Day 1: Talenti Caramel Cookie Crunch. I am kicking myself for not trying this stuff sooner.
    Day 2: Talenti Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip. I liked it but the texture was a little more sorbet-like. Did not get the husband seal of approval.

    Day 1: hot fudge brownie sundae with Edy's vanilla bean
    Day 2: same
    Day 3: Midnight Truffle blizzard from DQ
    Day 4: Breyer Tiramisu gelato-- awesome-- will buy again. Not as crazy about the ladyfingers but the mascarpone and espresso are both amazing
    Day 5: same-- turns out that either they're wrong about how many servings are in a container or they're wrong about the weight of a serving. *shrug*
    Day 6: hot fudge brownie sundae-- last of the brownies.
    Day 7: Edy's slow churned french silk
    Day 8: same
    Day 9: B&J Salted Caramel Core-- I was hoping this one would be like the caramel side of the Karamel Sutra but I didn't like it as well. I did the core though, it was saltier than the Karamel Sutra. But I don't think I'll get it again. If I want caramel I'll get the other.
    Day 10: Edy's slow churned french silk
    Day 11: Ben & Jerry's Milk and Cookies-- this may be my new favorite B&J flavor. It was awesome-- perfect amount of cookie, really nice texture. Repeat for sure. I also had 2 servings of Edy's slow churned cookies n cream.

    Do you see Phish Food or Half Baked in your future?

    Phish food is one of my favorites. I liked it a lot better than the s'mores flavor. I tried the half baked froyo and didn't care for it. But it was mostly the base, the cookie dough was really good.

    Day 1 - Haagen-Dazs Caramelized Banana Chip (10/10). Great flavor & creamy texture. Highly recommend if you like banana!
    Day 2 - Ciao Bella Pumpkin Sea Salted Caramel (8/10). Flavor is spot on, but it has a pumpkin puree like texture I didn't care for. However, very macro friendly! 190 cals - 9f/24c/3p per serving
    Day 3 - Talenti - Toasted Almond (currently consuming). 230 cals - 10f/27c/7/p per serving. Giving this one a 10/10 (I'm biased towards almonds though). Chopped almonds, brown sugar & maple syrup swirl in a sweet cream base. Good mix of salty & sweet. nom nom nom.
    Day4 - Three Twins Butterscotch Pecan - Currently Eating, will edit after consumed. Heavier macros on this one... 230 cals - 15f, 21c/3p. Flavor is really good on this one. Another mix of sweet and salt. However, the texture kinda sucked.... I was expecting it to be much creamier considering the 15g fat per serving. I guess the majority of the fat came from the chopped pecans though. I personally wouldn't waste 60g fat on a whole pint again moving forward. 7.5/10
    Day 5 - Maple's Organics Cardamom Ginger - Great macros on this one... 150 cals - 9f/17c/3p. I had my hesitations about this one, but damn... 10/10! Very refreshing flavor, texture was very creamy! Cant beat that, good macros & good flavor. Highly recommend this one! **Just got to near the bottom and there was a huge candied ginger piece, motherofpearl it was yummy!
    Day 6 - Talenti - Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip - 230 cals - 13/f/25c/4p. Really nice flavor, very creamy. Tastes just like a Dark Chocolate Raspberry candy bar. Raspberry Gelato with Dark chocolate shavings which provide a nice crunch, but melt in your mouth since they're so thin. I would give it a 9.5/10, but this is because I still can't get that damn cardamom ginger out of my mind.
    Day 7 - Talenti - Sicilian Pistachio - 210 cals - 10f/27c/4p. Nice flavor... standard pistachio flavored ice cream base, with chewy pieces of pistachios. Good balance of sweet & salty. I recommend if you have a thing for Pistachios or nut flavored (giggity) ice creams. Stacked up against the Toasted Almond by Talenti, it ranks below it. However, still a solid one overall. 9.5/10.
    Day 8 - B&J Red Velvet Cake - 250 cals - 13f/30c/4p. Big red velvet fan here, so my expectations were rather high. Nice red velvet cake batter base with cream cheese swirl. Also has a good amount of red velvet cake piece thrown in for a chewy texture (highlight feature of this IMO). I thought it was good, but not worth the due to the amount of calories for the pint as a whole. My review could also a bit biased since my expectations were rather high but actual taste and such came in below expectations...8.5/10
    Day 9 - Ciao Bella Brown Sugar Caramel - 230 cals - 11f/28c/4p. Initially I wasn't too impressed with the flavor from the start, but as I got deeper into it... it did grow on my. I'll be honest my expectations were high for this one but something was a bit off about the flavor. I didn't really get any "brown sugar" taste from it... it tasted more like a coffee with caramel or something of the sort...So much so that I checked the label to see if that was in the ingredients. Oddly enough there was a tapioca syrup in it (not sure if that would explain it). Sorry guys... I know yall were hoping this one would be a winner, but I'm docking points for the WTF flavor factor despite it still being flavorful. 8/10.
    Day 10 - Ciao Bella Malted Milk Ball - 240 cals - 13f/28c/4p. This one delivered.... My lord! So creamy and delightful! Imagine a Chocolate Malt Shake ice cream base with crunchy malted milk balls all throughout. It made me reminisce of Halloween as a young kid and getting the malted milk ball treats. The only downside was that is that I finished it and didnt have any left
    :(....Highly recommend this one! 10/10

    Day 11 - Ciao Bella Roasted Hazelnut - 230 cals - 12f/20c/4p. This was a fairly unique one.... Very smokey taste it to (uh derrrrrrr) with quite a creamy texture as well. Compared to the other nut themed ones (Talenti Pistachio & Toasted Almond) I think it ranks below it. Also, there no chunks or pieces which made it slightly disappointing. Again, I'm comparing it against the other nut related gelato's I've recently had. I'll give it a 8.5/10, stacking it up against it's nutty brethren. However, if you don't have high standards like me, or you haven't experienced the awesomeness that is Talenti Pistachio, Toasted Almond etc. I'm sure you'll quite enjoy it!

    I've never been a fan of fro-yo so I've never tried them. I heard they weren't that good. As far as Half Baked Ice Cream goes, it's awesome imo. It's definitely my favorite B&J. The brownies and cookie dough are very dominant which I like. It's even better between cookie dough pop tarts.

    I'll have to give that one a try then.

    I like soft serve froyo, but I rarely like the kind that comes from the freezer section. With a couple of exceptions.

    I may not be done for the night!
    Day 5 - So, one for the vegans and lactose intolerant today.. Genuto Chai Latte. This is a really nice non-dairy one. The texture is really rich, smooth and creamy - more like a gelato than an ice-cream and so much better than the coconut or just almond based ice creams. The base is a mix of nuts - cashews, pistachios and almonds - although you cannot taste the nuts. It is a local 'artisan' one and pretty spendy, but worth for the occasional serving. They have other flavors as well, some of which I want to get: http://genuto.com/ I had 1 1/4 servings.

    Day 6 - So, after a shopping trip to three stores where I came away with a total haul of 24 pints for a ridiculous amount of money, I decided to try Steve's Craft Ice Cream - Bklyn Blackout which, per the label is "Milk Chocolate Ice Cream Swirled with Chocolate Stout Cake Pieces and Dark Chocolate Pudding". I have to say though, it really was not worth the 280 calories. Very nice smooth chocolaty base, but not too much else going on and I really could not find the mix-ins. Maybe they are the bottom. I have had one of their flavors before and the base is really good, so I am going to try a few more http://shop.stevesicecream.com/collections/all-flavors

    Day 7 -
    So, I bought this, thinking that the 'peanut buttery swirls' was peanut butter...nope, its actual peanuts. I hate peanuts in things (except in peanut butter):

    So, plan B - Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Peppermint Crunch. I have had it before and it's good. A nice chocolate base with minty balls...and who does not like minty balls?

    One serving as its 290 cals.
    Day 8 - Decided to jump on the Talenti train and use up one of my tubs. One serving of Talenti Sea Salt Caramel.

    Day 9 - Tried a new brand today - Foxy's Pash - Naughty Pash Butter Toffee & Caramel Chunks FroYo - 1 serving. I actually thought it was ice-cream at first - it tasted like it and was really really nice with the small crunchy caramel bits and has decent macros if you are trying to keep fats down (something I find challenging especially on refeed days) - 140 cals a serving with 5g fats and 4g protein

    Day 10 - Found the Jeni's Brambleberry Crisp over the weekend. This was totally delish. I am not usually a fan of fruity ice-creams, but totally loved this one, so ended up having 2 servings.

    Day 10 - Ben & Jerry's Imagine Whirled Peace 1/2 cup

    How is that one?

    It's one of my favorite Ben & Jerry's. I love the sweet cream ice cream mixed with the caramel. And the toffee cookie pieces are actually less like pieces and more like completely crushed and swirled through. Add the little fudge peace signs and it's perfect.

    Ben & Jerry's used to have one called Fossil Fuel that I loved, it had little fudge dinosaurs in it : ) But I haven't found it in years.
