Triple decker of:
Hawberry
Chocolate/Chocolate chip
Butterscotch
and the sweetened cone.

Hawberry Ice Cream is a regional specialty of Manitoulin Island in Canada. If you can get it anywhere else, let me know!!!
Butterscotch is my all-time favorite. If I'm only having a single cone, I sometimes get Vanilla.

As I found out that I'm extremely allergic to all dairy products, and I no longer eat Ice Cream, the list above is just from beautiful memories...

Vanilla Rice Dream is really good with canned peaches added. And the Homemade Soy Ice Cream with bright red currants that I made one time was very good.

I make killer homemade ice cream, but it's not for the faint of heart. My recipe calls for 9 egg yolks and a quart of heavy cream. If I can't have the real thing, I'd rather not have it at all.

Unfortunately, I didn't make any at all this summer, because I'm trying to get rid of weight gained, while living in Alaska.

as a person who works making the bloody stuff, vanilla as it is the easiest. the worst is either cookies and cream or finest raspberry

Oh that Tofu Dog Swirl sounds disgusting Rich
Ever have RiceDream? Its pretty good.
I've have Tofutti but it isn't that great.
I have a home-made recipe for Icedream that is 'To Die For' made with rice or soymilk, if you are interested, send me a personal message.

I've had Rice Dream and Tofutti both. They're both tasty, but pricy. I've given up any attempt on being a vegan (I play a goatskin, for starters), and so while I'll eat vegan food while It's there I don't particularly go out of my way for it. Would like to try the homemade recipe. PM on the way.

ANY flavour of ice cream will do me! Given the opportunity I could probably consume my own body weight in ice cream--- or die trying! But being sensible, I only allow myself the occassional foray into the refrigerated department of Tesco's to buy the stuff! Ice cream is indeed the food of the Gods!

Well... being somewhat of a pro (I worked in the iced-cream business for two years) I'd have to say my favourite is Daiquiri Ice. It isn't really iced-cream, but it's my favourite. Fat-Free as well!

All of the above are disgusting, with the sole exception of coffee, as mentioned by the Irish Sergeant. Being a trueborn Rhode Islander, it's the only ice cream I will eat.

B & J's Triple Caramel Chunk and Vanilla Fudge Caramel are great...
A place I used to work in made Carob Twirl which I thought was amazing...
but here in Boston we are blessed with many shops that makes their own gelato-style ice creams and sorbets and I humbly invite any of you out for a cone or dish if you visit...my personal faves are:

Toscanini's:
Gingersnap Molasses
Red Raspberry Sorbet
Espresso (it has coffee grounds in it)

Herrell's:
Cinnamon Nutmeg
Lemon Mousse
Fresh peach (in season)
Pumpkin (had some on hot apple crisp at Equinox ritual this weekend, yum!)

My favorites from childhood were always black raspberry and vanilla.

Well, I'm kind of partial to the Dreamery's Sticky Bun flavor.

And in Gettysburg, PA, there's a place that makes Teaberry ice cream.

But my all time favorite is fresh peach ice cream from Dolly Madison's stores in Denver, made with fresh Colorado Elberta peaches. Yum!

Hey, Peg, I still have my Herrell's T-shirt I got at Steve's original place in Northampton in 1985! Chocolate Pudding was the one for me. Now I have to make do with imported Breyer's (not like it was in Philly when I was growing up, but still has the little flecks of vanilla bean) and occasionally B&J, but I've also grown quite fond of the local brands, such as ginger or green tea from Hilo Homemade.

And to make this a musical thread, I hope to see Peg and Bud and others at the Bok/Muir/Trickett concert in Bedford this Saturday -- I'll be wearing my Mudcat T-shirt!

Aloha,
Mark.

Bugsy, I remember El Dorado Ice cream vans. Square cones and little bricks, Broughty Ferry near Dundee Scotland 1959. Big Van in a small cul-de-sac - used to cause an uproar of kids begging their parents for icecream. There was no Mr Whippy in those days (I sound like my grandmother)

Hi Patrish Having never heard your grandmother I'll have to take your word for that. Next time you're anywhere near my fridge you can try Les' homemade icecream 'cos I've just got one of those clever machines. Great fun! Getting back to music my favourite ice cream song is Hokey Pokey - Richard and Linda Thompson.
