    DH decided to make Reese's milkshakes last night after dinner. Delicious.

    I apologize for the stupid question but I was excited to find Gelato Fiasco today and I picked up the dark chocolate sea salt caramel. However, I am not sure how many grams their 1/2 cup serving is. Do any of you know?

    Probably about 120g. That's how many were in the peanut butter stracciatella. You can write to them and ask. They'll tell you!

    I'd been using 104g for the serving, but if you do write and get a response, please post!

    And that is just about the very best calorie-efficient ice cream / gelato I've ever had. It is shocking how flavorful and rich it is but still manages the low calorie count. Enjoy!

    I didn't even think to write them. I will do that, thanks. In the mean time I did a Google search and found a thread where Cortelli had said it was 100+ grams so I just measured out 100 grams. I am so very thankful for you guys because I don't think I would have ever considered trying Gelato Fiasco because of the price but I remember reading a couple good reviews. It definitely did not disappoint. :)

    They were pretty quick to respond. Same with Jeni's, after I got some ice cream that didn't have a nutrition label on it. I think MrM27 is the one who got us hooked on Gelato Fiasco, with his rave review of the peanut butter stracciatella. It all went downhill from there. :wink:

    @dennie24 I think I figured it at around 120 grams based solely on dividing the contents of the container by 4. But if you get an answer from them let us know.

    I'm back from vacation. I had lots of delicious food-- usually there are a few duds but not this trip. Everything we had was delicious. Pics later.

    I've been eating HG's Peach Sorbet for the past week. I literally have no room in my freezer for ice cream :(

    I dunno what it is lately, it's like I've been in an ice cream funk. No good new flavors :(

    For ease I'm putting all the desserts here. I'll put the meals in the savory thread. Apologies that everything has a bite out of it. I kept forgetting to take a picture until after the first bite.

    Dutch apple pie a la mode, which was fantastic:

    This was a blueberry crumble bar from a local bakery. It was gluten free but still delicious. ;)

    I intended to try something a little more exotic but I was just in the mood for cookies and cream, so that's what I got. From the ice cream shop across from our hotel:

    8dc24722-898a-4fb2-bb9a-0f13aba85144_zpsheo5hpcw.jpg

    This one was really interesting (and good). It was butterscotch ice cream with a butterscotch ribbon, and then it had brownies, oreos, and peanut butter cups mixed in.

    I dunno where this should go-- it was one of the three craft breweries we tried. The second from the left was my favorite beer we tried-- a sweet potato ale. It was delicious. Mr. Acrylics even liked it and he's not a sweet potato person.

    Finally, this is a chocolate toffee mousse cake from the italian place we tried. The meal we had there was possibly the best thing I've ever eaten anywhere. I told Mr. Acrylics that this tasted like Christmas. When pressed for what I meant by that (I can see why he was confused because it really wasn't even traditional holiday flavors or anything) I realized that what it really tasted like was my mom's fudge with some of my english toffee melted over the top. Absolutely incredible, and worth every calorie.

    I went to a food truck meet at HEB and was able to get something from SMOOSH.

    Apple pie with oatmeal raisin cookies because I've been craving both apple pie ice cream and oatmeal cookies

    Also picked up this waffle salmon concoction.

    They also had a 2 for 1 Talenti coupon, so I picked up pistachio and double dark chocolate. :wink:

    People, today is National Ice Cream Appreciation Day. You know what you need to do. Make or consume the most delicious ice cream concoction you can imagine. Post pictures and tell us about it here.

    For any non-Americans in the group, never fear, I am naturalizing you for the day so you can participate. 'Murrica

    I ate 400 calories of Edy's drumstick in honor of National Ice Cream day. To be fair, I also had a lot of spare calories.
