Coconut Chip is by far my favorite flavor at the Creamery, it's vanilla ice cream with coconut flakes and chocolate chips. It's sort of an unfortunate favorite to have though. Every time a customer asks what my favorite flavor is in order to help them make their decision, I always say Coconut Chip and people always make faces at me. It hurts my feelings to the extreme. I'm very serious about my ice cream.
It's such a good flavor, that is if you like the taste of coconut, and is really easy to scoop. Sometimes too easy to scoop, making it slightly soup-like. The average scoopability would have to be a 2. Not so bad! It's pretty hard to find an ice cream that's a perfect three, believe me.
Even though customers tend to not enjoy my favorite flavor, my fellow members of the "Cream Team" (yeah, we call ourselves the Cream Team. It's a really ridiculous place to work, in case that wasn't already clear. My coworkers are actually all insane.) enjoy it. I like that I'm not alone and can share the flavor I love with my coworkers. If you ever order it, you should get it in a shake! It's delicious!
Speaking of Coconut Chip! I did have a bonding moment with a customer on Saturday Night (Thon weekend) about our mutual love for the flavor. Ice cream can really bring people together! The power of ice cream never ceases to amaze me :)
I don't know about that. I think Coconut has a grossability meter of around 4. But thats just my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI love Coconut chip! It's my favorite. I was standing in a huge line in...October I think, waiting for ice cream at the creamery and someone was saying to their family "Well, I'm trying to decide between (something), (something) and Coconut chip" and me being the brilliant creeper I am just immediately replied with "GET COCONUT CHIP!!" Yeah, people just kinda stared at me, but it's delicious! You can't blame us for being excited about it! Great post
ReplyDeleteI enjoy reading your posts every week! The fact that you are able to parallel your working life and school work is interesting and fun...killing two birds with one stone! I actually just recently developed a taste for coconut, so I might try it sometime soon!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh. I can't stand the flavor of coconut in anything. But I still wish I could like it since it's in things that seem like they have potential to be good (like pina colada's and this ice cream). It's just a love or hate thing I guess
ReplyDeleteI completely agree I LOVE coconut chip its amazing! I agree with the faces that you get tho, its like what are you thinking that must be nasty, but dont diss it unless you've tried it! I love going on this ice cream journey with you its a lot of fun!
