Review: Ben & Jerry's Berry Voluntary


The last cheesecake ice cream i tried wasn't that great so i didn't want to try this one as much. But i saw that it did have some type of chocolate in it so i decided to try it. It's Raspberry cheesecake ice cream with white chocolatey chunks and a raspberry swirl. There wasn't much chunks in there but i'm glad because it would have ruined the whole thing. There's a nice swirl and it tastes just like cheesecake too! The ice cream is really creamy and it almost melts in your mouth. I would recommend this to anyone. It was a great flavor and i'll probably have it again soon.

Review: Ben & Jerry's s'mores ice cream


I think I've pretty much declared every Sunday Ben and Jerry's ice cream day. So i'll pick one, eat it and post a review. This week i decided to try the s'mores one. It says it's a "chocolate ice cream with fudge chunks, toasted marshmallow & a graham cracker swirl". And for once, that's actually what it tasted like. There was a distinct marshmallow, graham cracker, and chocolate taste. The weird part was, some of the graham cracker swirls were liquid and some were almost like cookie dough. But that was the great part about it! I kind of wished there was more graham cracker cookie dough pieces but that also might have ruined it. When there was, it almost tasted salty. Not really salty but almost like a good, sweet kind of salty.
Overall, it was a pretty good ice cream but it was too chocolatey and i think next time i'll just stick to regular s'mores.

Review: Ben and Jerry's half baked frozen yogurt


I was really excited to try this. I love all things that are not baked. Like cake batter and cookie dough. I couldn't find the original half baked ice cream so i just decided to try the frozen yogurt. After all, the picture made it look so good! It looked like there was a lot of brownie and cookie dough chunks in there, which i love. So how did it taste? Well.. you could tell that it was frozen yogurt but it still tasted pretty good. But i was a bit disappointed by the lack of brownie and cookie dough chunks. I thought they would at least be all at the top but there wasn't much chunks in the entire container. Overall, i would have it again but i think there are better things out there.

Review:Oreo Brownie Earthquake Blizzard



There's only a few things i hate in life. Cats, mean people, cookies and cream anything, and mint. You're probably wondering why i'm reviewing the oreo brownie earthquake then. You're probably thinking, it's not cooking and cream! Well.. i thought that too and we're both wrong.
The only reason i went to Dairy Queen today was because if you buy a blizzard there today, a dollar of every blizzard purchased goes to the Children's Miracle Network Hospital. As soon as i found this out i knew i had to go there because i do anything for charity.. and sometimes food.
This blizzard was described as Oreo cookie pieces, fudge brownie pieces, hot fudge and marshmallow blended with creamy vanilla soft serve. And here's what it actually tasted like: a bunch of oreo cookies pieces with about five fudge brownie chunks, vanilla ice cream, and no hot fudge. Or marshmallow. It pretty much tasted like the brownie batter blizzard with less brownies and more Oreo's.
Next time i think i'll stick to the fruity blizzards.

Yoplait Light Boston Cream Pie Yogurt: A review



I love Yogurt. I used to hate every type of yogurt because i thought it all tasted the same but when i saw the Boston cream pie yogurt i knew i had to try it. I love anything boston cream pie related. The pie, the donut, and i even made a version of the cupcakes with chocolate frosting on top and french vanilla pudding in the center.

Well if you want to try Boston Cream pie, then don't get this yogurt. It doesn't taste like it at all. I love how it's very creamy, like the french vanilla pudding but it tastes like a mixture between an overly sweet version of the pudding with some chocolate mixed in. So all in all, i wouldn't try this Yogurt again. Maybe next time if they put less sugar in i'll give it a try.
