is that fucking photoshopped

>>15245124
Yes, the ice cream is clearly just cropped and drop shadowed onto the bowl

After the scandal. Blue Bell went to shit. HEB or Kroger ice cream is superior

>>15245147
Sounds to me like you got spooked by listeria and just swapped to a competitor because of the outage

doesn't look like chocolate peanut butter

Disgusting.

It doesn't taste the same

Blue Bell cookies and cream is my favorite.

so you were only buying it for the listeria?

>Artifical Flavors and ingredients
Dropped. What kind of sick joke are you trying to play OP? How could something made with artificial ingredients even have a shot at being the best?

>>15245164
Cry me a fucking river reddit. You’d probably shit your diaper silly if I told you my heart rate fluctuates from 60 beats to 110 just from resting. Or how I have sensation of sawdust in my eyes sometimes, or how I eat enough for 4 people everyday. I just know that my “condition” is from a fucked up sleep schedule and after I reset it I’ll be fine. Doctors are jews that’ll tell you that you’ll need expensive meds that are either placebos or probably just make you more sick, kinda like a crappy mechanic at a car dealer trying to hustle you out of more money by saying your car had more issues than it really has. Fuck you, fuck hospitals, fuck medical insurance, fuck hypochondriacs, and fuck Reddit.

No it didn’t. Blue Bell still tastes good.
I’m convinced Ben & Jerry’s paid for industrial sabotage to be done on the Blue Bell facilities. The months of non-production allowed other companies to gain a large section of grocery frozen aisles, which were previously dominated by Blue Bell.

>>15245307
I think you’re a tastelet. Or even worse, a damnyankee.

shut up retard

>>15245122
mint choc chip is good too

>>15245122
Moose tracks & Vanilla for me, desu. Also any pie crust flavors such as Marionberry pie.

>>15245122
I have this in my fridge. It's okay, their standard vanilla is better. The frozen whipped cream part is tough compared to the soft ice cream, and the chocolate ice cream part isn't as good as other chocolate ice creams. I do love blue bell in general.

Try HEB's new Swoon flavors instead, they're literally top tier.

No point in buying BB when HEB brand ice cream is better.
Honestly feels like people don't even like blue bell for the taste they just buy it because it matches the rebel flag they have hung outside their trailer.

>>15247413
HEB's flavored ice creams are better than blue bell, but blue bell homemade vanilla is literally the best vanilla ice cream. Also, kill yourself, faggot.

>>15247440
>blue bell homemade vanilla is literally the best vanilla ice cream
HEB brand homemade vanilla tastes the exact same. I'm sorry you nuked your taste buds with skoal, Cletus.

>>15245122

>>15247584

>>15247584
sorry bud but this is Umpqua territory, best keep moving

>>15246449
Do they even make that anymore I've not seen it since visiting my granddad in texas when I was like 12 or something.

>>15245122
I've yet to find a banana ice cream, and would love to try one, assuming and hoping it's made with fresh bananas ands not extract.
Most stores that carry banana ice cream its usually like banana split or cherries or bunch of added stuff. Disappointing

>>15245122
I unironically love pistachio ice cream.

>>15245122
hazelnut or pistachio gelato.

>>15247662
i made banana walnut ice cream by extracting banana juice from over ripe naners.

>>15245147
>>15245149
He's actually not wrong. They did something to the formulas. I had some homemade vanilla that melted, and melted it was almost as thick as it was frozen. It never used to be like that prior to the listeria, they must've used it as an excuse to change their formulas and add in more thickeners or something.

>>15245122
I haven’t beaten blue bell since this moment

>>15245574
Sounds like you've got a handle on things

>>15245149
It's not even listeria I'm worried about. It's the fact that bluebell doesn't properly seal their shit and monkeys open and lick that shit

>>15245122
Easy.

>It's not even listeria I'm worried about. It's the fact that bluebell doesn't properly seal their shit and monkeys open and lick that shit
It's the listeria I am worried about. At least half of people who get poisoned end up hospitalized. The company has no morals to continously fail inspections and keep cranking out bad product. Trust is gone.

Publix has the best flavors in recent years than anyone else.

>>15247648
Come to think of it, I have no idea if they still make that.
I haven't had any in years.

>and the chocolate ice cream part isn't as good as other chocolate ice creams.
Was considering getting a half-gallon tub of plain Dutch Chocolate the other day to make some frozen hot cocoa situations over Christmas but it's been a long time since I bought any. This true, and alternative suggestions?

Listeria is fucking terrifying, but its virulence factors are absolutely fascinating. Listeriolysin O allows listeria to escape phagocytosis and live inside the cell that has consumed it.

The coolest is ActA, which hacks the cell's own cytoskeleton machinery. Actin is a motile, tubular protein that is constructed and deconstructed very quickly inside the cell. With ActA, the bacteria can stimulate rapid synthesis of this protein near its rear. These tubes of actin help propel it forward and disintegrate almost as quickly. It can also use this mechanism to propel it out of one cell into another.

It looks like a rocket!

They finally plead guilty to shipping contaminated cases in the summer.

I like Tillamook's berry flavors. Their dark cherry and strawberry are both delicious.

As far as readily found storebought ice cream goes Talenti is better and it's not even a contest. Especially if you're a chocolate lover, their chocolates are pretty much the richest you can buy. They also have a lot of really interesting and inventive flavors, but I'll admit some of them just miss the mark entirely because the mix-ins don't go well.

>>15252701
Their Southern Butter Pecan is great.

You never stood a chance, but that's alright.

>>15252705
Never seen it in stores, but it sounds good. Ever tried their sorbetto? I'm curious to but I usually just go for one of the gelatos instead.

What’s so special about tillamook

>>15252618
What’s so special that differentiates it from others, I’m not talking bout berry, but in general tillamook.

>>15252735
Nothing. The people that post it here are special, special education.

>>15252746
Isn’t all ice cream really the same basically, I mean aside from brands that make theirs airy or puffy, it’s basically preference right. Aside from sugar content, preservatives, etc.

>>15252725
Their Mango sorbetto is just okay, but their Roman Raspberry is actually out of this world good. It's got a really nice tartness to it against a backdrop of sweet.

>>15252742
Tillamook in general makes good-quality products. They haven't made the same cuts to ingredients or flavors that so many others have done (so much so they had to relabel it from ice cream to whipped ice dessert), nothing tastes overly artificial, and you actually get chunks of whatever fruit or goodies that's in that particular flavor.

>>15250319
I'm from TX and this sounds exactly like something someone would do. Everyone is so fucking fake.
This place is a tax haven but the people are are all cowboy larpers who buy $150k lifted pickup trucks that they park in their apartment buildings while listening to bro-country. And the older generation are all oil boomers that can't figure out how to operate a touch panel on a soda fountain.
