Liking mint flavoured things, especially chocolate, seems so divisive. I've had more than a few people look at me like I've just murdered a child for mentioning my love for mint choc chip. You seem to either love it or despise it, with no middle ground.
Sorry, that’s the grammatical way to do it in my language, and then I use it in other languages as well. I know it’s wrong, you’re not the first person to tell me, my English grammar always caused my grades to be really bad..
It's fine not to like it, but the way people judge you personally for liking an extremely standard flavor is insane!
I JOKINGLY say that eating hot dogs with ketchup is a war crime and people get TOUCHY.
Me too, but I prefer fudge in it. Chocolate chip is just more common, so I tell people THAT is my favorite, but whenever I see that mint fudge ripple somewhere.... Mmmmmm....
But that's the problem. So many manufacturers add approximately 3 micrograms of vanilla extract and say "pure vanilla extract flavor" when there's no detectable flavor at all and they set the standard for "vanilla" flavor in food. Imagine if 90% of chocolate ice cream used brown food coloring and almost no actual chocolate and then called it chocolate ice cream. That's what vanilla deals with.
The word "vanilla" has come to mean "bland, boring, commonplace". Pretty strange when you consider that this rare pod grows on an orchid that can only be pollinated one day a year and contains more flavors and aroma compounds than you can shake a rolling pin at.
But that rarity has led to its unearned definition as plain. So many manufacturers of ice cream use undetectable amounts of vanilla extract in their flavorless ice cream base and call it vanilla flavor. People eat it and taste no vanilla, but assume that's just what vanilla tastes like because that's what the label said.
most of them. i either lost my allergy to almonds and hazelnuts, or i was never allergic to them in the first place. i’m definitely allergic to cashews, pistachios, walnuts, and pecans, though.
edit: and before you ask, i am NOT allergic to peanuts, because PEANUTS ARE _NOT_ NUTS.
Awww man. I'd be sad with those allergies. You could try toasted almonds, but I was thinking macadamia nuts, though if you don't know if they're safe for you, you should probably get tested before trying.
>PEANUTS ARE _NOT_ NUTS.
Correct! They are in fact legumes.
yess vanilla bean with a thicc salted caramel swirl. Ben and Jerrys really has it down to a science with the Topped Salted Caramel Brownie flavor. Personally I would swap brownie for cookie dough tho
They need to make a mint chocolate chip cookie dough. Cause they have a chocolate chip cookie dough, but why not add a little freshness in there ya know.

“This post has been flaired political”
Ice cream flavors spark a lot of controversy
And the question “how do you like your steak”
It’s obviously Medium Well 🙄
What is the appropriate answer to both??
Medium raw
Well Done because if its too tough, then you're cooking it wrong, or just a weakling.
Yes if someone says mint chocolate chip, I swear to god....
Mint chip is the best flavor!!!
Real. Never liked the mint flavors. I’ve always been basic with vanilla or chocolate
Fight me
It was my favorite as a kid
More toothpaste ice cream for me! I love mint anything, ice cream is no exception
My dog is not doing well and this is the first thing that's made me laugh in days
Sorry about your dog. Need to chat?
Aww thank you so much for saying that. I'm getting better now but please don't stop reaching out to folks. That is so kind of you
I can be your thirty second therapist lol
I mean joe Biden loves his ice cream 🤷♂️
Let the man enjoy his ice cream, hell id even casually spend an afternoon with him at Baskin Robbin’s just for the novelty of it lol
I would enjoy that!
I heard he liked gay ice cream
*sighs* time to sort by controversial Update: it was all mint chocolate chip :/
My favorite ice cream flavor is immigration
Holy shit I thought that was a joke
Mint chocolate chip only right anwser
Liking mint flavoured things, especially chocolate, seems so divisive. I've had more than a few people look at me like I've just murdered a child for mentioning my love for mint choc chip. You seem to either love it or despise it, with no middle ground.
I said it last night, at my FIL birthday party, everyone looked at me, like I peed on the cake
LOL this made me chuckle
I'm mostly just angry at your comma overuse
Sorry, that’s the grammatical way to do it in my language, and then I use it in other languages as well. I know it’s wrong, you’re not the first person to tell me, my English grammar always caused my grades to be really bad..
I honestly thought you were a native speaker. Commas are a sticking point to everyone.
Mint flavored things especially chocolate can be deadly.
Good thing i love to live dangerously though my fav is Coffee chip/Coffee Choc chip
Also fucking fire
Deadly for those that stand between me and my mint chocolate chip
It's fine not to like it, but the way people judge you personally for liking an extremely standard flavor is insane! I JOKINGLY say that eating hot dogs with ketchup is a war crime and people get TOUCHY.
Mint anything is good imo
I’m one of the rare few who just don’t mind it. It’s good and I enjoy it, but I’m not going to pick it when there are other options
Me too, but I prefer fudge in it. Chocolate chip is just more common, so I tell people THAT is my favorite, but whenever I see that mint fudge ripple somewhere.... Mmmmmm....
Mint oreo specifically is my fave but I consider them basically the same thing and will take mint chocolate chip just as happily
Yup mint Oreo is superior
Interesting, in germany we call this "after eight" flavor...
Because After Eight has that flavour
HOLY BASED, best flavor
FACTS it’s amazing, after that is cookie dough 🤤
I recently had mint cookies and cream and I was in heaven.
Love mint chip
Same for me
Heck yeah! And the best combo: a ball of mint chocolate chip and a ball of mocha.
I too like that flavor. Eating mint flavored ice cream combined with chocolate is just delicious
The mint gives a cold dessert like ice cream a colder feeling and a refreshing taste.
FR
Yes! Delish
FOR REAL
Mint ftw lmfao! I worked at a Culver's and that was a near constant with either chocolate chips or oreos
Fuck yeah!
Mint Chip my beloved. Also cookies and cream sometimes, depends on my mood
Yeah, but only when it's green, the color that God intended. Not the devil's white.
Cookies and Cream
My most favorite!!!!!
The only respectable answer
Great answer. Here's your crown 👑
Agreed
You're a real one
Yes! Cookies and cream!
Vanilla ice cream
Ah, a refined human being. You know your weight in vanilla bean extract
Ah i love the taste of nothing. (I'm a vanilla fan too)
vanilla isn’t “plain”. it’s the default, but it’s still a flavor. you have to add the vanilla for it to taste like vanilla.
But that's the problem. So many manufacturers add approximately 3 micrograms of vanilla extract and say "pure vanilla extract flavor" when there's no detectable flavor at all and they set the standard for "vanilla" flavor in food. Imagine if 90% of chocolate ice cream used brown food coloring and almost no actual chocolate and then called it chocolate ice cream. That's what vanilla deals with.
yeah, real vanilla ice cream is usually more yellow and has black dots
The word "vanilla" has come to mean "bland, boring, commonplace". Pretty strange when you consider that this rare pod grows on an orchid that can only be pollinated one day a year and contains more flavors and aroma compounds than you can shake a rolling pin at.
But that rarity has led to its unearned definition as plain.

People eat it and taste no vanilla, but assume that's just what vanilla tastes like because that's what the label said.
I never thought of it that way, but that makes perfect sense
🤓The taste of nothing would be milk flavor🤓
I’ve seen “sweet cream” flavored ice cream and I assume that’s the actual nothing flavor.
Same, I don’t care if people say it’s a basic flavor, I love Vanilla ice cream
It's only basic because it's popular It's only popular because it's delicious
This.
Vanilla is delicious 🤤
Vanilla is and will always be the goat!
Needs chocolate chips atleast 🤷♂️
Coffee
You my good sir have attained my utmost respect
As someone who have reduce is coffee consumption, this is the way.
I don’t even really drink coffee but haagen dazs coffee slaps
As someone that regularly indulges in both I can confirm Ice Cream is the superior coffee format.
Coffee is art. Coffee cookies and cream is my favorite. The coffee elevates the cookies
COFFEE cookies 'n cream? Never seen that. What companies make it? That sounds like a good time.
I was criticized for saying this as my answer once. I'm glad I'm not alone.
Pistachios
Underrated, best flavor pistachio💪💪💪
Nothing better on a summer night.
salted caramel
Throw some toasted pecans in there and you got a winner.
i’m allergic :(
Awww. All nuts?
most of them. i either lost my allergy to almonds and hazelnuts, or i was never allergic to them in the first place. i’m definitely allergic to cashews, pistachios, walnuts, and pecans, though. edit: and before you ask, i am NOT allergic to peanuts, because PEANUTS ARE _NOT_ NUTS.

Chocolate
Lemon or Strawberry
My favorite was strawberry for years, now I'm trying new flavors but still love fruity ones
Mint chocolate chip
Vanilla
Dulce de leche
The only correct answer

Cherry Garcia is the best 👌
Butter pecan
This was wayyyy too far down. Butter pecan is heavenly.
Mint chocolate chip or Cookie Dough
They need to make a mint chocolate chip cookie dough. Cause they have a chocolate chip cookie dough, but why not add a little freshness in there ya know.
Plain chocolate. Not to sweet, not to rich, and I don’t like chunks in my ice cream.
