Oreo Cookie, and not the fake stuff.

Or random stuff mixed together from marble slab.

[Misterpants]

Marble slab disgusts me. Ever since we went in and the girl making everyones cones had sprinkles stuck to her lip. I can just imagine them digging in to the toppings with their grubby fingers and sticking them in their mouths. Yuck!

[Vena]

Bubblegum
Maple Walnut
Tin Roof

Mmmmmmmmmmm.....

M&M’s makes a mean peanut butter ice cream.

I also like the Oreo ice cream (not from M&M)

[Misterpants]

Which marble slab?

Chinook, right after they opened. That, plus the thought that they are molesting my ice cream on some dirty counter top prevented me from ever having marble slab.

I'll have to check out the M and M's ice cream, sounds awesome. Reese Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard is pure Win.

Superstore's Mocca Choclate Almond ice cream. That, or McKay's Ice Cream in Cochrane's Apple Pie.

No...Benjamin, is nobody's friend. If Benjamin was an ice-cream flavour, he'd be mildew and dick.

[Cowperson]

A plain cone with a scoop of Chocolate Chip Mint and a scoop of Bubble Gum on top . . . . . whereever I travel that's what I'll usually have.

Ice cream in Italy is pretty awesome. A shop window in Rome . . . .

When I was in Venice I just kept going to the same place to get a mix of Vanilla and Strawberry Gelato. Best thing ever.

I completely agree. The best ice cream i have had hands down.

[Caged Great]

a rare 5 year thread bump.

Just wanted to share a place I found this past week. Village Ice Cream has the best ice cream I have tried in Calgary. There is one location just north of the Saddledome along with a few others. It's made locally as well.

The maple pecan and the chocolate flavors are awesome.

[Looch City]

Village is my favourite ice cream place in this city. I love the Phil & Sebastian Coffee flavour.

[ben voyonsdonc]

Safeway's Peanut Butter Cup ice cream is currently my favourite store bought ice cream.

[Misterpants]

Village is great and they are super nice there. I wish Ben and Jerry's would open a storefront here though. I had the most perfect flavour in the states, and it makes me sad thinking I'll likely never have it again.

Oh man had the rum raisin after the Flames game, it was delicious. Nice notes of rum and the sweetness of natures candy really tied it together. Delicious.

[rubecube]

Yeah, my girlfriend and I hit up Village in Britannia last time we were in Calgary and it was phenomenal. She had the toasted coconut and I had the cardamom. Both were good but the coconut was out of this world.

[MRCboicgy]

Basically, every summer weekend I would get on my bike and cycle down to Village Ice Cream for a salted caramel ice cream sandwich, then bike back to Bowness.

[_Q_]

The cardamom icecream from village is absolutely insane!

[Sr. Mints]

Oh, jeez, I'd never thought cardamom anything sounded appealing, but you guys have sold me.

[The Yen Man]

I really like pairing sorbet with chocolate ice cream. I find the tangy-ness of sorbet goes fantastic with the sweetness of the chocolate.

[Izzle]

I have a dinner party to go to and it was up to me to bring dessert. Do you know if Village Ice Cream have pre packaged ice cream tubs, like the 1L kind you get at the grocery store?

Yes, they do. I don't think you can get 1L though.

[Izzle]

Yes, they do. I don't think you can get 1L though.

Thanks for the info. It didnt have to be 1L. I was just wondering if they had a "to-go" option that is a bit bigger. I'll probably end up taking the cardamom, salted caramel and the girl guide cookie flavours.

Thanks all.

Yeah, they sell pints and ice-cream sandwiches out of their freezer. I've done that when I've had to bring dessert before and it worked nicely.

[_Q_]

My diabetic dad makes me take him to Village every time he visits Calgary just so he can have the cardamom ice-cream. Yes, the sugar isn't good for him, and no he doesn't care.

[troutman]

I liked the Saskatoon Berry ice cream at the Soda Shop in Black Diamond. I'm not sure who makes it.

http://www.marvsclassics.ca/shop.html

Maybe MacKay's (yikes, look at the calories and fat):

Lol at the 100ml serving size.

Brian Regan:
"serving size for ice cream is a half a cup. Who the hell eats a half a cup of ice cream? 'Hey Brian, you want some lunch?' 'Oh no I just had a 1/2 cup of ice cream. I just kept eating and eating, I must have had two spoonfuls!"

"Serving size for Fig Newtons is 2 cookies. 2 cookies? I eat Fig Newtons by the sleeve."

[OutOfTheCube]

D Dutchmen Dairy in Sicamous is a beauty. A staple of every BC road trip I've ever been on. They have a Chocolate Tiger flavour that is amazing.

I'll have to hop in the car and give this Village place a try some weekend, though.

How many ml in a double scoop?

Can second this. They have a chocolate chili ice cream that's good, too.

[Meelapo]

Wow...Village Ice Cream is incredible. I bought a pint of toasted coconut, waited for the wife, took one scoop each, then I grabbed the pint, ran to the corner and ate the entire thing myself.

Word of caution...the pints aren't cheap. They are $9 a pop.

[RedHot25]

Not gourmet or anything, but like someone else referenced, for regular ole grocery store ice cream - we love Safeway's "Moose Tracks". So good.

Lic's Ice Cream shop, in Point McKay ?, just down towards the river from ~ Foothills Hospital-ish area is nice as well.

[TorqueDog]

I stick to the Chapman's No Sugar Added ice cream for the most part. Mostly sweetened with sugar alcohols, so it keeps my net carb intake low.

Though there are occasions I will treat myself to some froyo from Menchies and the like. Man, do I feel like I was hit with a bag of hammers after, though.

[Joborule]

Oh, jeez, I'd never thought cardamom anything sounded appealing, but you guys have sold me.

I usually get the coffee flavour, but I'm gonna give that a shot next time I'm down there.

[Izzle]

Ok, bought the ice cream for the dinner party. Didn't bring enough. We were full after the meal. Had the cardamom and salted caramel. Destroyed it. Buddy's wife forced him to go get more, all while she, my wife and I continued to play board games.

Guys, that cardamom is crazy good.

[aaronck]

Village has a location in Britania, never as busy as the DT location. They had a Root Beer flavor this summer that was unbelievable!

[Sluggo]

[jayswin]

I haven't watched the video but will. But certain A&W locations will tell you the milkshake machine is down like 9/10 times you go there, and it used to kill me. I caught on pretty quick that there was probably a reason they're always down.

At the one by my house it was always "down temporarily", but it was obvious it wasn't coincidence.

[jayswin]

Wow, that was fascinating, actually. Love how the company actually blurs out the actual critical codes in their videos. "Call the guy" is their solution for the machine, to the tune of 25% of that company's revenue.

[Sluggo]

Yeah who knows how many of these old gentleman's business arrangements are around dragging down the economy and/or keeping thousands at work doing somewhat skilled jobs. I guess its up to the people who discover them to decide on whether to publish that information or not.

A&W haven’t had their milkshake machines in their stores for over a decade

However, select A&Ws are running a pilot test run of their new machines (installed in the last month) which makes slushes and “milkshakes”

The frozen root beer sounds good

It’s MIXED locally

According to one of their scoopers, They truck in their ice cream base from BC in a frozen State. They then defrost it here and mix in their white cream base with whatever Flavouring they want to put in

[Macman]

Made By Marcus is really good same with Amato Gelato, good stuff. McKay's is good too but it's double the price of anything else in the freezer section.

[I-Hate-Hulse]

I hate that my grade school kids are learning to discriminate between Made by Marcus ice cream and grocery store ice cream.

They should be happy with the brick of freezer burnt Lucerne Neapolitan that we were only too happy to get when we were kids....(usually with one of the chocolate all eaten)

The locally produced Foothills ice cream is pretty good, but I haven't had it in a long time.

I loved the strawberry chunks they have in the strawberry flavor. The other ones I liked were mint chocolate chip and rolypoly.

[Shazam]

The giant Foremost tubs actually aren't bad. Lots of overrun but still acceptable for $7.

There's a new place in Bowness called Abbey's Creations. It's expensive because of the mixins but damn the white chocolate ice cream was amazing.

I don't think you need to rub it in anymore.

[FlamesAddiction]

Blue Boy vanilla was the best. Life has never been the same since it disappeared.

[GoinAllTheWay]

Dutchmen Dairy in Sicamous has the most amazing icecream I've ever had.

Man that stuff is amazing. Can't drive through Sicamous anymore without a quick stop there.

Their glass bottled chocolate milk is also something else.

[Hack&Lube]

I don't think you need to rub it in anymore.

At least its not labeled "Frozen Dessert" which is the even lower class of items.

I've been fooled too many times at the grocery store by Breyers and Nestle Frozen Dessert which contains so little dairy, it doesn't qualify at all. They are disgusting.

If I am going budget, I usually go with Chapmans as it's still Ice Cream by dairy content.

[Shazam]

That's why I sometimes buy the Foremost, it's still ice cream!

Baskin Robbins used to have the absolute best PB and Chocolate ice cream. Thick ribbons of frozen peanut butter, it was amazing. Had not had it for several years and when I did the quality was nothing like before. Hardly any peanut butter at all. So disappointing.
