Many nights when I was a little girl, my dad and I would "race" through our bowls of ice cream. Surprisingly we both have some gene that predisposes us from getting brain freeze; I've never experienced it.
So, when the generous people at Graeter's Ice Cream sent me 6 pints of ice cream to review, I thought I had died and (hopefully) gone to heaven. Who in their right mind would turn away that offer?!
As the luck was all mine, I was able to test the following mouth watering flavors:
Toffee Chocolate Chip - The chunks of toffee are incredible, probably because they use genuine Heath® toffee; very nice combination.
Mint Chocolate Chip - A staple flavor, and their chunky version is perfect.
Mocha Chocolate Chip - Mocha can be dry and overwhelming, but not this Mocha. It is pleasing on the palette with a creamy finish.
Double Chocolate Chip - Chocolate lovers look out, you have found your own heaven. Thank the Lord.

Vanilla Chocolate Chip - Another staple flavor done deliciously right by using natural vanilla.
Black Raspberry Chip - My absolute favorite. Out of this world. The pairing of raspberry and chocolate chunks is one of the best combinations life has to offer! I licked the pint clean. I'm kidding, but don't think for a minute I didn't think about it.
Does the picture below make you want to drool? Look at those chunks!
Graeter's makes a whole slew of other flavors - a few more with chocolate chips and many without like, caramel, cookies 'n cream, black cherry, butter pecan, strawberry, coffee, and of course chocolate and vanilla. Their two new flavors are pumpkin pie and cinnamon, just in time for Fall. If you prefer sorbet, they've got you covered as well. You can enjoy the raspberry or lemon sorbet flavors.
Graeter's is first class all the way. The seal on the lid is tight in order to keep your ice cream fresh, and they use only the best ingredients. For example, their cream is fresh and from farms that pledge not to use artificial growth hormones (rBST). There are no hydrogenated oils, therefore no trans fats. They use 100% cane sugar with no high fructose corn syrup. The list goes on. With all these benefits, eating ice cream has never been so good for you!
Go ahead and send some pints to your favorite ice cream-aholic (even if it is yourself)!
It's a tough job having to review ice cream, but somebody has to do it. Graeter's, you have won this mother over. You truly are irresistible.
