Baskin Robbins Ice Cream

Yummy! Neopolitan and chocolate chip!! did I say Yummy!!

DH text me for ice cream when I was out shopping. I didn't see it till I got home. I hadn't had my coffee yet. So I went across the street to the Dunkin/Bressler's.

I got a large iced coffee and a quart of chocolate chip, and fresh packed neopolitan.

I told the young man, strawberry, chocolate and vanilla. He said "You mean neopolitan? I've been waiting for someone to order that!" I didn't think he'd know what it was if I ordered it that way. LOL!

I love Baskin Robbins ice cream, but have not had it in years. My husband and I lived in Maryland for awhile and we were introduced to the brand there. I used to order their strawberry cream cheese ice cream.

I used to love this ice cream, until I bought a pint of it at our grocery store and happened to read the ingredient label. YUCK! Too many fake ingredients. Tossed it out and will never buy again.

Baskin Robbins Trivia:

Irv Robbins son, John Robbins, wrote the famous book,

Diet for a New America in 1987...which made the connection

between diet, animal cruelty, environmental factors.

He & his son, Ocean, are both very important to this day

within the vegan movement.

Odd that many plant based doctors/influencers grew up with

a strong family connection to the Dairy Business.

I didn't even realize Baskin Robbins or Bresler's were still in business. Ours went out in my area years ago.

@ECBG

I don't think it was actually ice cream - more of what we now call a sorbet but it was my fave!

It is expensive! Years ago, I was pleased to find a BR nearby after I'd moved to NJ. I'd never been to one! So, of course, I stopped in for a treat. The price was high, which wasn't unexpected, but they gave you only one scoop of ice cream on a cone. I thought: this is crazy, I could have gotten a whole half gallon - and then some - at the supermarket.. Needless to say, it was my first and last visit to BR.

On the 31st of every month, BR has scoops for $1.70. It used to be $1.31, then $1.50 and now $1.70. But it is still cheaper than the regular price. That is usually when we go.
