Kawartha has this salted caramel truffle flavour I fucking miss so bad from when I lived in Ontario, or that PC Black label bourbon vanilla is soo good if I actually go to (local Loblaw's variant, not doxxing myself) but usually I go to Sobeys cause it's closer so I get stuck with regular Chapman's or Haagen-Dasz which is fine but it's just not really the same but I don't wanna go all the way to (city redacted) just to get an ice cream because why would i do that. Anyways, what's your guyses's favourite ice cream. Gimme some suggestions available in canuckistan or stuff to try when I visit the US.
Idk how to post emojis from Sync, but (I'm vegan.) Vegan ice cream is a little trickier since you're relying heavily on whatever the base is made of for taste. YMMV but for me, Oat milk base is best, Almond is fine, Coconut is meh because its very overpowering and all flavors taste like coconut, anything with pea protein in it is gross, and so is that weirdo Avocado ice cream that was probably created to harm the reputation of vegan food.
All that said, try the So Delicious brand that you can get at Walmart or probably other supermarkets. They have Oat, Almond, and Cashew bases that are all pretty good no matter what flavor you get. I like the double chocolate chunk, I think its called, because I used to be a huge chocolate head whenever birthdays and stuff came around.
You don't like Avocado? The concept weirded me out at first, but I've had Avocado shakes with chocolate and I loooove it
Someone I know informed me there are a lot of recipes online for making your own vegan ice cream with avocado, so I'm wondering if it's a Tofurky situation where old-school vegans were eating avocado ice cream before we had access to all the fancy brands we do now. That was before my time, but it would make sense. I'm not an avocado hater in other contexts, I just don't think it makes a very good dairy replacement. I pile them onto my burritos though. It'd definitely be my last choice if I were trying to convince someone to go vegan.
Haha dang you bringing up Tofurkey in that context is real. I remember eating tofurkey like 14 years ago and it was soooo gross but years later the Italian Sausagr they make became a staple in my house and still is, and I'm an omnivore.
I tried the Avocado smoothie at an Asian restaurant I was eating at a while ago. I feel like I've seen them on Vietnamese and Thai menus a lot, so I think sweet Avocado preparations have been around for a long time. I know I've definitely gotten weird looks when I've told people about them though so I agree I don't think it would be the first thing to have a someone skeptical to Veganism try for sure
