Its official. I ***hate*** Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia
Sparkly's out for an overnight trip. I'm left here, all alone, fending for myself. I bought some soopermarket sushi and a pint of Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia for supper. (cherries .... fruit .... balanced diet ... yanno?)

Anyway, I just cracked open the B&JCG. This stuff is awful. There's so much filler in it that my spoon won't go through it smoothly. So many cherries and chocolate chunks and crap.

I want my cheap-assed no-name no-filler no-flavor ice cream back.

:)

1. Huh. I just had the same experience with
a pint of Haagen Daaz Caramel Cone ice cream. But... it didn't bother me one bit :-)

3. LOL, um... yeah
Nobody in their right mind would hate that ice cream (it's one of my faves).

Plus, when you said you preferred "no-taste" ice cream... that was the clincher

4. Do you know that Costco has large boxes of
Haagen Das ice cream bars? Either plain or with toasted almonds. ummmm. So very good and the bars seemed to disppear quickly. I think I sleep walked.Cherry Garcia is muy tasty and another of my favorites.

8. For some reason I can't bring myself to buy ice cream at Costco
I'm always afraid it will melt while I'm in line, or walking the 3 miles to my car in the parking lot, or on the drive home.

I actually have a couple bags like that -- just never have them in the car when I need them! lol

11. i have canvas bags and those insulated ones and as soon as I carry
in the groceries as I unload the bags I hang them on the garage door so they are IN MY WAY! that makes me carry them back out to the car as part of the "putting away groceries" routine

then I always have them in the car when I shop and many of the grocery stores I go to actually give me a nickel credit for each bag when I use my own bags too! :bounce:
