Chef Horst's chocolate - it tastes like a fudgesickle. His Ponchatoula strawberry rocks too.
I like kids. They taste like chicken.

What Mrs. Fury said and Breyer's Peanut Butter Ice Cream with Reese Peanut Butter Cup Pieces (I'm ashamed of how much of that I ate a few nights ago).

Right now I'm hooked on BlueBell Snickerdoodle ice cream. This summer when my son was here...he discovered BlueBell Banana Pudding.

I used to LOVE K&B's Pecan Praline ice cream. Wow that stuff was like crack.

homemade chocolate, or homemade any kind.

grocery: Breyers Vanilla Bean, Haagen Dazs Swiss Almond Vanilla

ice cream shop: as a last resort, Baskin Robbins Jamoca Almond Fudge or Pralines and Cream, but luckily for me the Baskin Robbins in Vicksburg closed. Sometimes after a hard afternoon grocery shopping at Kroger, I'd drive through and reward myself.

Oooh expat I love Bryers Vanilla Bean but I have not bought ice cream in a long time. I think last time I got Blue Bunny in the tiny individual servings. It was perfect. I was able to hide them behind the broccoli so sweetie could not find them.

Haha! I do the same thing with the little pints of Haagen Dazs.

Me too! Sometimes called Gianduia. I always get Baci at Brocato's. Sometimes I'll add a second flavor, coffee or pistachio.
I had a really good one from Hagan Daaz, pear something. Picture of Sara Moulton on the carton. Really good.
I had an amazing prune and Armagnac ice cream (frozen custard?) in Paris.
I love fresh peach or strawberry... I really like ice cream, but in general I don't like too much chunky stuff in it (unless its fruit.)

I can't get behind Coldstone creamery--that stuff is awful...full of stabilizers, gummy and weirdly elastic in texture. Give me gelato any day. La Divina's mint flavors are excellent; the mint julep is ottimo (but how can anything with mint and maker's mark NOT be excellent), as are all of the chocolate flavors. Aztec chocolate is addictive, with the whole cinnamony-peppery-afterburn.

Pazzo's pretty damn good, too. The lemon sorbet is one of the best lemon ices around.

And Brocato's pistachio nut is pretty hard to improve upon.
