which one did you get?

― brimstead, Sunday, 19 April 2020 20:56 (six years ago)

are we worried about ice cr34m googling itself

― j., Sunday, 19 April 2020 20:56 (six years ago)

xp I don't want to say which one I got until the votes are in and if the one I got doesn't win I might be too embarrassed to admit it anyway I already think I bought a suboptimal vanilla so I'm not going to eat it unless it wins the poll!!!!!!!!!

― lumen (esby), Sunday, 19 April 2020 20:58 (six years ago)

Never having tasted any of them, my take would be: Double >> Bean >> Country

― A is for (Aimless), Sunday, 19 April 2020 21:01 (six years ago)

if you’re doing a traditional float or a shake, I would guess “country” is the way to go.

vanilla bean is its own thing

double vanilla whoa check yourself

'vanilla bean ice' is the only one that averts conference room confusion

― Nudeln und Klopapier Gore (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 20 April 2020 15:08 (six years ago)

but if you bought all three and announced 'vanilla ice privates in the conference room'

― Nudeln und Klopapier Gore (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 20 April 2020 15:15 (six years ago)

I've had all 3 and prefer the double vanilla.

― sarahell, Monday, 20 April 2020 15:26 (six years ago)

i had exactly this dilemma a while back after having not purchased ice cream from the grocery store in several years. i can't remember which one i went with.

if you disclose your choice, then it wouldn't really be a

it is more "kroger's selection from the batch of vanilla ice cream believed to have a tenth less bug parts per carton according to factory data"

― Nudeln und Klopapier Gore (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 20 April 2020 16:51 (six years ago)

ice cream "hot stampers" from right after they washed the machines

its gotta be vanilla bean bc beans beans the magical fruit

― methinks dababy doth bop shit too much (m bison), Monday, 20 April 2020 16:55 (six years ago)

Sight unseen I would say vanilla bean since it's probably the only one with real vanilla not some lab created vanilla flavoring.

Let me warn you about something: That brown sugar bourbon vanilla in the middle was AWFUL.

Turkey Hill? I do not want any ice cream that intimately associates itself with turkeys.

― A is for (Aimless), Monday, 20 April 2020 21:35 (six years ago)

it's funny how each vanilla name calls the quality of the other versions into question by highlighting a feature you would have assumed every vanilla ice cream possessed.

― Nudeln und Klopapier Gore (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 20 April 2020 21:39 (six years ago)

country vanilla
vanilla bean
Borax free vanilla
we actually know who made this vanilla
ok, this one is actually ice cream vanilla

lol sufjan

― Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 03:20 (six years ago)

also, went with double. like if we're talking fancy ice cream then vanilla bean, but this is a kroger private selection so i'm betting it's a little chemically, so i just want "double" - sounds rich, creamy. could stand up to the milk in a shake and not just be sweet mush in the end.

― Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 03:22 (six years ago)

i don't even remember what the third one was

― Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 03:23 (six years ago)

oh "country" right. that's gonna be some bullshit imo, just this side of turkey hill.

― Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 03:23 (six years ago)

I'm reading richard rhodes's "the making of the atomic bomb", and there's an anecdote about Hungary under soviet rule -- food was rationed with cards, but for some reason ice cream was much cheaper than everything else, so Arthur Koestler's family ate vanilla ice cream for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

― wasdnuos (abanana), Tuesday, 21 April 2020 03:34 (six years ago)

you guys i am so. fucked. i tried the ice cream last night.
and... It was not vanilla enough! 🤒😵🥶 Like not enough vanilla like, it could have more vanilla and I wanted there to be more vanilla and it was right then from the very first taste that I knew i had indeed. bought the wrong ice cream

― lumen (esby), Tuesday, 21 April 2020 18:16 (six years ago)

you must designate the whole carton for float duty

― Nudeln und Klopapier Gore (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 21 April 2020 18:48 (six years ago)

mark it with the universal symbol for float duty: a dog with sunglasses and spiked collar, holding a giant mug overflowing with suds.

― Nudeln und Klopapier Gore (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 21 April 2020 18:50 (six years ago)

maybe don’t buy the generic store brand. cheapo!!!!

― brimstead, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 19:26 (six years ago)

a pint of vanilla bean ice cream from our local creamery costs $12

― Nudeln und Klopapier Gore (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 21 April 2020 19:38 (six years ago)

I’m picturing these three ice cream cartons as anthropomorphized greasers cornering esby in an elevator or something

― brimstead, Tuesday, 21 April 2020 19:52 (six years ago)

I cream. You cream. We all cream for greased lightning.

our brains are clamoring for any entertainment, however trivial

if 'double vanilla' was not enough vanilla, that is trivial to you?
