I haven’t been to cold stone creamery in a long time.

Could just be the location, but I remember once getting mint chocolate chip from them and it tasted so much like toothpaste.

On the subject of ice cream though, I always prefer eating out of a cup. If I do a cone then chances are it will just fall off. Not to mention all the air from the straight up cone.

Plus, I’m the kind of guy who just chows away on that stuff. I don’t do the classic lick ice cream from a cone.

Been to Apple Hills Creamery and it's decent.

That's exactly what happened when I tried mint jelly: it tasted like eating toothpaste!

While we're on the subject, mint jelly is usually served with lamb, and if I'm being honest, although I'm not a vegan or vegetarian, there are certain animals that, for whatever reason, I can't bring myself to eat, and lamb is one of them. Same with deer, rabbit, and duck.

Oh god yes, the cone is fragile and will fall on your hands making a mess.

I mean I'm pretty much the same way with pig meat now..... I do like pigs and pig meat is just way too salty.

The only time I'll eat bacon though is in mac and cheese and on a burger.

Also I gotta be honest, since I've talked about going on the vegan diet mainly for health, I'd pretty much be that cocky vegan who would promote the vegan life but still secretly have a burger or some kind of meat dish as a once in awhile comfort dish while I'm by myself because I'm that much of a p3nis.

Yeah, I can't see you going vegan. I feel like you'd be living this particular Goofy cartoon. . . .

 

[LittleJerry92]

Like I said, I’d be that secretly dishonest vegan.

I felt that way about lamb too for 40+ years. Then a friend made some lamb chops which changed my mind. No mint jelly though.
I tried duck once, but found it a little greasy.
Rabbit I have no desire to try, cute cuddly things.
Deer, I used to feel the same way. You can’t eat Bambi! But after a few of them smashed into my car, all bets are off.
Actually my friend made some good venison jerky, but otherwise deer is a little too gamey.
