    2. A grocery store to pick up some stuff. Got 3 different things. Gelato Fiasco Torched Marshmallow Smores Gelato, Phin & Phebes Banana Whama, Häagen Dazs Banana Split.

    The Gelato Fiasco Torched Marshmallow Smores - Disappointed. The graham cracker flavor was overwhelming in my opinion.

    I was so excited about that s'mores, and then you said it was a disappointment. I got coupons from Balducci's, so I'm going to try to get over there this week. I still want to get that stracciatella peanut butter one.
    You can't take my word on the Smores to seriously though. I for some reason was getting a strong cinnamon flavor and I hate cinnamon. Maybe I'm just confusing it with graham cracker but I did not like that. However, I have spoken to several people over in an ice cream thread I post in on bb.com and they loved Smores. So it's definitely worth a try.

    The PB Stracciatella you need to try. I've seen several other people besides myself say it was mind blowing and quite possibly the best ever.

    I was going to stop at Balducci's yesterday but I couldn't do that and stop in Manhattan. Would have gotten home way to late with the holiday traffic.

    That's weird I didn't get cinnamon from it-- just graham cracker. I did think the graham cracker base was a touch sweet but I generally really liked it.

    Ok, I'll try it! :bigsmile:

    I do wish it had a stronger chocolate flavor.

    Tomorrow I'm going back to the grocery store that had the brand. I'm on the fence about the PB Stracciatella-- I didn't like the Ben & Jerry's one that everyone raved about at all.
    I agree that more chocolate would have changed things for me

    I'm one person that actually thought the B&J PB sucked. That should not even be allowed to be mentioned in the same paragraph as the Gelato Fiasco PB.

    :laugh: :laugh:

    Sorry, I recant. :wink:

    Have you had it yet, or are you on the fence about buying it?

    I haven"t had it yet. Peanut butter stuff is a toss up for me.

    I've never been the "roller" before!!!!

    Maybe you were and do not recall; red wine may cause memory loss. But I'm glad to see some reasonable people have this thread moving. Now, just need to buy some more Gelato. . . . . .

    I bought the peanut butter gelato fiasco. I tried a bite and it definitely puts Ben & Jerry's to shame.

    I'm very happy to hear that. Although I had a hunch you wouldn't be disappointed.

    I knew I could trust you guys! I'm going to try to get to the store on Friday. Oh, I'm going to Scoopapalooza in Chambersburg, PA on Saturday!!! It's a fundraiser, and I'm pretty sure it's all you can eat. I'm wearing stretchy pants. :wink:

    Oh man. I had to Google it. Sounds awesome.

    I'll probably have to do a lot of running afterward, but it'll be worth it. :bigsmile: I'll take pictures.

    First off, I'd like to publicly thank ILiftHeavyAcrylics and Terrapin, without whose encouragement and support I may have never had the courage to experience for myself the true ambrosia of the gods, GELATO!!!!:heart::heart: :heart:

    A trio of my newly acquired Talenti (since I am a gelato virgin, I clearly could not choose which to eat first--I chose ALL):
