Post #6 - Ben & Jerry's If I Had 1,000,000 Flavours

''A Collision of Chocolate & Vanilla Ice Creams mixed with Chocolate-Covered Toffee, White Chocolate Chunks, Peanut Butter Cups & Chocolate-Covered Almonds''
Well this one I have been trying to locate for some time and as I found it on sale at a recently stocked Metro Grocery Store, I had to have it the same day and I disregarded the pint of Cherry Garcia that has been waiting in my freezer. You shall be devoured on a latter day Mr. Garcia. This flavour has 2 Ice cream bases, loads of delicious mix ins (I love pb cups, White chocolate and toffee), and was inspired by the Barenaked Ladies. I had to have this.

As I opened the pint I saw the ''collision'' of both the chocolate and vanilla ice creams. The bases were typical Ben & Jerry's Chocolate and Vanilla but mashed up together like this kept me tasting something different all the way through the pint. No boring syndrome here. Paired with the delicious variety of mix ins, I was loving this. The PB Cups were perfectly salty and HUGE like a Reese's and the White Chocolate Chunks were everywhere and delicious. The chocolate covered almonds were delicious as were the chocolate covered toffee. However, the chocolate covering the toffee was so strong and present, it was hard to really get a good toffee taste.

Verdict: 8/10 - This relatively high score reflects the Ice Cream base that kept my palate tasting new things paired with the mix ins making every spoonful a different and more interesting one. Will be buying again.
