Ha! I wanted to post earlier but feared being mocked. But I love cones at McDonald’s.


I don’t think you can mock any soft serve choices. It’s all some powered junk with a ton of corn syrup and hydrogenated oils. No such thing as high end soft serve.


That's just not true at all. Soft serve is simply ice cream that is served after churning but before blast freezing, it can be powdered or it can be Jeni's quality. Take a trip to Vermont and try a creemee from a dairy farm, it'll be made with fresh milk and cream from cows 20 feet away, and maple syrup tapped from the trees you're looking at.


That sounds amazing.

That's also not what most soft serve is.

"Most" is not what "all" means, is it?

Still mostly junk. While you may stubble upon a truly “craft” creeeme, most, even at dairy farms, are not all natural and wholesome as you would think. You would really have to research and dig to find a place that is.

Neither is your understanding of what an "example" is.

Agree! But you need to get the “wild cherry” instead of the regular if they have it.

Jimmie Cone in Damascus is the best

Another vote for Jimmie Cone.

Not Sprinkles Potomac. So rude, overpriced even for Potomac standards, & not even good.
