A dream come true
I first heard of Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream ice cream right before it hit the stores about a month ago. The latest flavor from Ben & Jerry’s, it “is a decadent melting pot of vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. It’s the sweet taste of liberty in your mouth.”
Of course, I knew right away that I had to try it. Not only does it have a delicious combination of flavors, but, well, it’s ice cream. (Really, no reason is necessary beyond that.) Unfortunately, I have been unable to find it in any stores in my area…until this evening.
Let me just say this: I’m one of those people who, when pressed to name a favorite ice-cream flavor, usually says, “Oh, I can’t possibly choose just one.” But you know, maybe I can now…
Believe it or not, we saw this in the Wawa right down the road from us! AND, we somehow managed to resist it!
So, it’s good eh?
Yeah, I’ll need to be pickin’ some of that up at the store. Where’d you finally find it?
I found it at the Wawa just around the corner from me. The shelf was almost completely cleared out: I bought the second-to-last pint.
