I almost never eat ice cream, but this week it's been pistachio. Makes me think of New England summer evenings, when we'd go get a cone. Always pistachio.

Is it Gifford's of Maine or is it the Gifford's from around here? Your reference to Wild Maine Blueberry has got me going because Gifford's of Maine is seriously good.

OMG it's from Maine!! Just read their address on the package. WTH??? How is that legal or fair? I told my DC "this ice cream was around when I was a kid." (DC native.)

Gifford's of Maine has been around for quite a while too. Try Lobster Tracks if you ever have the chance. Delish.

What brand ice cream is this?

The Lemon Graham Crumble is from Stone Ridge Creamery and the Chocolate Chocolate Cupcake is Greene's. I'd never heard of either of those two brands before. They're not premium brands by any stretch but soooo good!! (Just those two flavors -- can't vouch for the rest but there was a wide array of delicious sounding flavors.)

I haven't seen these brands in stores b/f. Where do you buy them?

Snider's Super Foods in Silver Spring sells Stone Ridge and Greene's.

Mmm, how do you make this?

I make this in my Vitamix:
Chocolate, Banana, Peanut Butter Ice Cream

1 cup half and half or whole milk
1/4 cup powdered milk
2 bananas that have been peeled, sliced and frozen
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
4 heaping tbsp. Nutella
2 heaping tbsp. Peanut butter
4 cups ice cubes or crushed ice

Put all ingredients in Vitamix, turn on, immediately turn to number 10 and to high. When the motor noise changes, turn off ( this took less than 1 minute for me.). Pour into a freezable container and freeze overnight, until firm. Let container sit out a bit to begin to soften before serving.

I sometimes omit the peanut butter. I imagine this could be made in any blender if you use crushed ice from your fridge instead of ice cubes. I freeze in a covered plastic container.

Carl's in Fredericksburg <3

Talenti Chocolate Peanut Butter and Graeter's mint chocolate chip. I have also been eating a lot of Ben & Jerry's vanilla with fresh peaches on top. Yum!!!

Haagen Dazs Peanut Butter Pie. It's a limited edition flavor. I hope they don't stop making it before I have a chance to get sick of it.
