Wish we had these stores in the east coast area. ?
Watermelon Chocolate Chip sounds wonderfully weird, though more of a summer flavor.
I’ve missed out on the Llama products: is it supposed to be like a fruity cereal (something like Trix)? Or does it taste closer to “real” fruit (or at least the mixed fruit cups they gave out at school 20-ish years ago)?
So many cinnamon-ish ice creams (if you include the frozen dairy) this year. Yay.
Will give me things to look forward to on trips to Kroger (or perhaps just its website) in the next few weeks/months,
While I usually complain about not enough mix-ins, my batch of Private Selection Churro was way too dominated by a caramel swirl: I struggled to find a bite of just the base cinnamon ice cream on its own, but it seemed to be fairly mild. Churro pieces were small crunchy balls that had a nice burnt flavor. The caramel swirl isn’t bad, but it’s not why I bought the flavor (and almost certainly has its own Salted Caramel version in this lineup).
