I Scream, U Scream...

We all scream for ice cream - CHOCOLATE ice-cream that is! For this round of tastings, we had one of the biggest turnouts so the results, I would say, are even more "accurate." Tasters were to bring plain milk chocolate with no extra add-ins.

Contestants:
A) Kroger's Private Selection
B) HEB Creamy Creations
C) Dreyer's Rich & Creamy
D) Sheer Bliss
E) Whole Foods Purely Decadent (w/ coconut milk)
F) Haagen Dazs
G) Kroger Deluxe
H) Blue Bell
I) Marble Slab

Criteria:
Texture/Creaminess, Richness, Appearance, Taste (Sweetness), and ICF (can't stop eating)


After gathering around a large round table like the knights of Camelot, armed with our eating utensils, and lots and lots and lots of smacking - here are our results...

Coming in first place is:
1st - Kroger Private Select $2.69
2nd- Dreyer's $2.99
3rd - Haagen Dazs $2.99
4th - Blue Bell $3.50

Coming in LAST place is:
9th - Sheer Bliss $5.99 (was said to have very little chocolate taste and the LOWEST score)
8th - Purely Decadent $4.89 (Many disliked the coconut flavor which was too overpowering and diluted the chocolaty taste)
7th - Marble Slab $5.50 (this one was a surprise!)
