Ice Cream Year-Round or Summer Only?

Eugene, Oregon
February 3, 2023 11:19am CST
I noticed one lone ice cream sandwich in my freezer, left over from some hot summer month. I don't eat much ice cream in the warm seasons and in the winter, it does not appeal at all. When I eat ice cream, I do like the sandwich style, coffee flavor or chocolate with some nuts added. Do you eat ice cream year-round? What's your favorite flavor?

@JamesHxstatic Bourbon Vanilla is very good. I always have a box of gelato in the freezer, it's good also during winter. In Italy we like also to serve an "affogato" it's a small ball of vanilla ice cream on top of which you pour an hot espresso coffee, it's good.

@LadyDuck Sounds delicious. I bought some bread at my favorite store, Trader Joe's called Olive Fougasse, bought it three times actually. Delicious!

Bourbon Vanilla? Now that is an attractive flavor. Gelato is so good.

I used to love ice cream years ago. Then l think my favorite flavor was a chocolate mix with another flavor.

I think it is mostly for kids.

@Kandae11 Really? I was thinking of the way kids surround ice cream trucks, or used to.

Anything with chocolate in it, and I need to have a taste for it.

@JamesHxstatic If I lived further south, yes. But, we do have occasional cold days and sometimes light snow.

And where you live, it is warm enough year round for ice cream.

Pretty eats more ice cream than I do but yes, we eat it year round. She likes the Klondike bars. I prefer either Vanilla Bean or Salted Caramel ice cream. (Sometimes I put strawberry syrup over the Vanilla Bean ice cream. Most of the time I eat it plain.)

The cold weather gets between ice cream and me. Vanilla bean is great.

@JamesHxstatic We're in the warm house so the cold weather doesn't matter to us.

@DaddyEvil Right, my house is warm, but I can't warm up to ice cream when it's cold outside.

I eat ice cream year round. And I’ve noticed that some of the busiest times at my local ice cream shop are during the winter months. Go figure.

@JamesHxstatic It does get down in the 20s and 30s here about a dozen times a year, and surprisingly those are the busiest days at our ice cream shops.

Hmmm, Florida winters are not bad enough to hurt the business.

I like butter pecan ice cream year around, although I don't eat as much in cold weather.

@JamesHxstatic It’s cold now, but I have ice cream in my freezer I’m tempted to eat now.

I don't each much ice cream in winter time. I would combine it with another dessert, like some sort of pie that works well with it. Other than that, it's more a summer snack for me. As for favourite flavour, I don't really have one favourite, but I love a chocolate fruit combination, like dark chocolate and forest fruits. (This is what I always have at my favourite ice cream place)

Summer snack is the way I usually have it too. Dark chocolate & fruit sounds interesting.

I love ice cream and it's a year round treat for me. I used to strictly be a vanilla person but with all the choices these days I'd have to say chocolate chip cookie dough is my first choice now.

I can eat ice-cream any old time. Vanilla is probably my favourite but I like the ones with bits of cherry although I don't often see it.

I eat frozen yogurt nearly every day. If it makes me cold I drink hot tea. I love mint chocolate chip and cookie dough.

My husband has ice cream once a month year around. I like to have ice cream bars or ice cream sandwiches in the summer.
