Baskin Robbins Chocolate Mint ice cream is all I ever need. :)

A tablespoon of Haagen Daz coffee ice cream. I can dress it up with chocolate syrup, but either way I love it. Back a long time ago I would go to Baskin Robbins for Jamoca almond fudge, single dip wasn't too expensive then. Our downfall was learning how to make homemade stuff that was better than anything bought. Usually vanilla or rum raisin. The ice cream maker was the one you keep part of it in the freezer all the time, forget the brand, but it's easy.

Liquid nitrogen ice cream is the best I've ever had. Oh so creamy and good. ^

i suppose its the same as paying out of your pocket for domestic F. not really that great and you can get about the same effect by bringing takeout and a nice pillow. but there are those that think its worth the $$$.

How the he*l do they make any money? Is a coffee five bucks? I understand casinos luring people in with such deals, but a local diner? Do they use grade B eggs? Do they even make grade B eggs?

I hear you on the novelty factor. Same thing with In n' Out in the Bay Area for me...

:confused: :confused: eggs dont cost that much. at most $2 a dozen. toast = a slice of bread. and coffee, well, is cheap black coffee.

Maybe it's all in the marketing.

Mmmm ColdStone.... the first time I went to a ColdStone was in some cutesy-touristy LI town. Those guys knew how to work the crowd and mush, er I mean chop the ice cream just so. My husband told the clerk that he'd give them a tip of they didn't sing. So, they were silent. :)

The ColdStones around here just don't have that mushing-touch. :(

I think Coldstone's Ice Cream quality is the pits...I'd much rather stop by Safeway and pick up a pint of HD or B&J's.

Ok, I will bite, what on earth do they sing while preparing your ice cream?

Same opinion here, the only time I've ever had it, it was so sweet I had to throw it out after a few spoonfuls. Seems Coldstone does quite well in tourist spots. Every time I'm in Waikiki the Coldstones there are packed but I never hear any singing.

Looking at it another way, it's actually quite the bargain. Order a medium or large scoop, load it up with bits and pieces of this and that, slather on some chocolate or fruit sauce and voila! - your 2,000 calorie daily intake for under $10!

Just pray you don't get hungry again later.

Seriously, I've tried it a few times and its way to heavy for my taste. I prefer a lighter ice cream texture.

The most annoying nursery rhyme type of song is sung while your ice cream is being prepared. For 10 seconds it is cute, by 15 seconds you are thinking, "ok this needs to stop", and after 20 seconds, you become homicidal.
This isn't American Idol....just shut up and give me my freakin over priced ice cream !

They don't sing at my local Coldstone and the girls aren't that good looking either naybe I need to go to another location. I go there for the toppings they mix in. Sure I can buy ice cream, but it would be a pain to buy bananas and strawberries and graham crackers to mix in. That is the appeal for me. The ice cream itself is nothing special.
