Ben & Jerry's Butter Pecan Ice Cream (1 pint)
Item Purchased: Ben & Jerry's Butter Pecan Ice Cream (1 pint)
Location Purchased: Jewel / 1224 S. Wabash Ave. / Chicago, IL
Price: $3.99 + tax
Review: Okay…I know what you are thinking. "Enough with the ice cream man!"
I agree.
The winter is coming and I need to start watching what I eat so I don't balloon up like Violet in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
But after the Dreamery Ice Cream fiasco, I had to have a taste of the real stuff. I didn't even finish the Dreamery pints. I just washed them down the drain with hot water.
Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, the best hippie invention since the concept of free love, has to be at the top of my dessert list.
This pint of creamy frozen euphoria had only two ingredients listed on the container that I couldn't identify. Go ahead, try and find another product in your local grocery store that you can make the same claim about. I dare ya!
Additionaly, Ben and Jerry suppor several charitable causes and only work with milk and cream suppliers who pledge not to treat their cows with Recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone. This can't be anything but a good thing.
The ice cream is creamy and delicious and you can taste both butter and pecan in each bite rather than just an overbearing sugar taste with nutty chunks scattered throughout.
I am not going to be buying any more ice cream for a while (I may even start doing some push-ups or crunches each morning to stave off the winter laziness), but when I do, I will certainly reach for B&J first.
