Scotchy Scotch Scotch
Since I am unable to do this blog weekly, due to the inability to logically accept eating a pint of ice cream a week, I stock up on pints. This pint has been in my freezer for two weeks and has been waiting for tasting.
Scotchy Scotch Scotch Verdict:
The memory for this pint is simple… Cameron. Cameron and I spent MANY hours on the couch watching TV and movies. What was one of the movies we watched a lot? Anchor Man. Not going to lie, I had never seen the movie before then. Now that has changed. But if you knew Cameron you would know it was rare to start a movie and finish it. This was no exception. I still haven’t seen it from beginning to end. Maybe I will finally do so in the future.
Butterscotch Ice Cream with Butterscotch Swirls
Butterscotch is a tricky flavor to master because at times it can be over powering. If you like butterscotch in those situations then this flavor is for you. If you’re like me and don’t like it so prominent then this flavor isn’t for you. Being the sweet addict that I am one would easily assume that I would like Scotchy Scotch Scotch because it, itself, is sweet to the limits. Biting into the butterscotch ice cream was refreshing, but when you hit the swirls of butterscotch it became too damn sweet. The swirl is too sugary for my liking. The only way that I can describe it is to having a coffee at Dunkin Donuts. When you order a coffee and Dunkin and ask for sugar you are literally feeling the sugar grains between your teeth. That folks is the butterscotch swirl in this flavor. It is too much and too grainy as a whole. I would easily prefer just having the butterscotch ice cream as it is. Now I feel like I need to brush my teeth and drink a gallon of water to rehydrate myself.
Why am I giving it a 3 start and not a 2? Truly, only because the memories associated with the main character bring back memories. Memories that will never be lost, unless I am senile at an older age, which helped define me as a person. I am allowing the memory of a Cameron help elevate the raking of an additional star.
