New items you’ve purchased at the grocery store

Yep. That’s why I only have 1 pint now, buried under the frozen vegetables. I think it’s actually Talenti gelato. When I can, I pick up those tiny Haagen Dazs containers …portion control, of course.

I have a friend who has a collection of tiny Hershey’s ice cream dishes. That works for portion control, too, except they can be refilled ….

I love the mini versions of Hǎagen Dazs (or however you spell that) mini coffee almond toffee crunch bars.

An ice cream pun. Loreleis being the Eis that draws mariners to their deaths, etc .

If only they had dark chocolate raspberry or dark chocolate orange. Preferably with chunks of truffle.

Yes on the orange! I love the Lindt dark chocolate intense orange bar.

Dark choc and fruit have always been a fave combo of mine. Baskin Robbins used to have a flavor, as did Robin Rose in LA, way back.

I went to town today, my supermarket did not have the new Tillamook ice creams, and the shelves were pretty bare. WTF! I didn’t check the grocery store at the other end of town as I assumed they were serviced by the same truck (being a small town and all). I guess somebody up there doesn’t want me to have all those extra calories. :cry:

I barely stopped myself from purchasing the German chocolate cake ice cream just now at the store.

I can send you a care package if needed :wink:

Thanks for the offer, but I 'm not desperate yet. I’ll check the other end of town next week.

Haven’t had much new lately. I tried a couple of P F Chang’s frozen dinners-- Dan Dan Noodles and Chicken Lo Mein. Kinda expensive for what they were and not very good.

The new Tillamook ice cream hasn’t showed up here, yet. I’m looking forward to that.

Edit: I spoke too soon. I just checked the websites of my local Safeway and Kroger affiliate, and they both have the new Tillamook. They didn’t just a couple of days ago.

Yea-ish - Lemon chicken and arugula salad. Reasonably filling and the dressing is not bad if a bit sweet. Reminds me of Sriracha. Could use more chicken and greens though.

I got the Tillamook German chocolate cake and the last chocolate hazelnut my supermarket had in stock. I’m sure I’ll be trying them both very, very soon.

Oooh! Taking one for the team :wink:

Let us know if the German chocolate cake one is “worth it.” Or mayhaps better not :grin:

I still mourn the departure of Aldi’s dill pickle chicharrones :sob: :sob: :sob:

Oh, it’s good, but it’s not as good as the chocolate hazelnut.

The German chocolate cake elements seem to be distributed throughout the ice cream, so you may get a spoonful that has coconut then you may get a spoonful that’s just chocolate ice cream then a spoonful with cake or pecan. I like that about it and hope that continues for the rest of the container.

I think fans of Ferrero Rocher chocolate hazelnut candy will love the Tillamook ice cream. What I’ve had so far was loaded with hazelnuts.

I failed to mention the hazelnut butter in the Tillamook ice cream. That really ups the hazelnut flavor. Good stuff.
