I agree. Blue Bell has an almost chemical taste. I grew up on Newport Creamery ice cream but unfortunately it is only sold locally(Rhode Island).
C’mon up to Newport Oregon: we have Tillamook and Umpqua ice cream. Umpqua’s French Vanilla and Chocolate Brownie Thunder are positively decadent.
You obviously don’t live in Texas. This is a wonderful family owned company who has been around forever. Glad you don’t like it - will be more for the rest of us. As a matter of fact, the local Kroger had it for $4.44 for half a gallon this week and we bought 6 half gallons. Hopefully will last us and the grandsons at least until the middle of April.
