This trip to put us just over , leaving us with 18 flavors to go. To help us celebrate our halfway point, we invited our friends from Wyandotte Patch, my boss and editor and freelance writer . Get your spoons ready, we’ve got four flavors to try!
After , I wanted to make sure we picked a winner. With four people and four flavors though, the results were varied. But since I write this article and take the photos, my vote weighs a little heavier. Just sayin’. We tried chocolate, blueberry, pistachio nut and peanut butter.
Chocolate
5 Spoons across the board! What else can I say? It’s a classic flavor and the Twist N Shout does it really well. Whether you are a person or a chocolate person, you’re in good hands here.
Blueberry
The fruit flavors have been hit or miss so far. Some winners, and some not quite losers, but just not strong enough of a flavor. So when I selected blueberry, I really didn’t know what to expect. But fortunately, this was really good and actually tasted like blueberries. As I ate it, I couldn’t help but think about blueberry muffins, blueberry pancakes and other blueberry treats that are so good. Jason liked it so much we switched flavors. We all gave it 4 spoons except for Aya. She gave it 2, claiming it tasted like blueberry bubblegum. It was three to one on that vote. You decide.
Pistachio Nut
Melissa selected this flavor and was a little disappointed. I won’t lie, I have to agree. I had high hopes for this flavor. I don’t care for pistachio nuts too much, but I have had pistachio nut ice cream before at . I may have been 10 years old when I tried it, but I remember it being fantastic. I guess a lot can happen in 20 years though. Maybe I only liked it for its intense green color? It wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t awesome. We all gave it 3 spoons except for Aya, who must have been extra critical after trying her favorite flavor chocolate (She’s been waiting 6 weeks to try the chocolate.) She gave it 1.5 spoons. Yeah, that had to be the chocolate talking.
Peanut Butter
Jason excitedly picked this flavor because he loves peanut butter. But his excitement was squashed when he tried it, claiming it wasn’t peanut buttery enough. I, on the other hand, loved it! I love peanut butter, too. I may or may not have been known to stand in the kitchen with a jar of Jif and a spoon. Peanut butter is so good. But if you’re expecting big chucks of peanut butter when you try this, this isn’t for you. It’s peanut butter flavored soft serve.
Interesting fact about Jason is that he loves peanut butter, but doesn’t like peanuts. How about that. And he hates raw tomatoes, but likes tomato sauce. And I thought I was strange!? I gave this flavor 5 spoons, Melissa and Aya gave it 4, and a disappointed Jason gave it 2 plastic spoons. Boo!
I do understand some people don’t think that peanut butter can’t stand by itself. But with chocolate ice cream in one hand, and peanut butter in the other, put your hands together! Introduce yourself to the most perfect couple that has a beautiful blissful marriage. If only we could all be in a relationship so perfect. We all agreed that a chocolate PB twist was spectacular.
