    Oh man, Fairly Nuts is amazing. Shame it's one of their least stocked flavours - I have real trouble finding it anywhere.

    Dunnes do it and Tesco don't therefore I shop in Dunnes.

    The difference is we sell Fairly Nuts

    Häagen-Daz Vanilla ice cream especially the praline and cream so much better than Fairly Nutty, there I said it.

    Good thing I'd only get something like that once in a blue moon if its on sale as its so calorific and small.. and delicious.

    HB aint what it used to be, the Dunnes tub of Vanilla aint bad with a bit of meringue, I think its made in Ireland which is always a plus.

    What was it like?

    Can't even remember the thing itself I just remember having one and I must've been four or five, one of those childhood memories that stick in mind, but I think it was like one of the mars/snickers icecream bars. Chocolate and nuts. It got a couple of mentions on this thread..

    an ice pop or swedish glace please ;s


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Magnum Doubles are unbeatable in the ice cream field. Haven't had one in ages though because I'm more partial to a Porky Pig or a rocketpop

    I just don't get kids these days..............:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,568 ✭✭✭candy-gal1


    brunch, super split, iceberger or choc ice are my main choices for a day like today :D
    for an icecream treat indoors cant beat Neopolitan icecream, dont even know if they sell it anymore tbh, but one of my childhood and teenhood sweet treats was a big slab of that with some blackberries picked from my tree, sooooo yummy! :)

    They don't sell them in Ireland anymore :( The caramel ones were to die for! Had one last time I was in the Czech Republic though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,942 ✭✭✭Jimmy Bottlehead


    Aldi do this premium ice cream at the moment, it's mint and caramel flavoured.

    I've eaten about 6 tubs of it in the last few weeks... :-(

    An ice-cream float would do it for me right now.

    Ice cream in a glass topped up with Coke :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,916 ✭✭✭Ormus


    1. Ice Cream Snickers
    2. Magnum Hazelnut
    3. 99

    Wibbly Wobbly Wonders had a funny name which made you wanna buy them, but were they honestly wibbly or wobbly?

    NOOOOOOOOOOO! The same thing happened with Snow Flake bars, I got a craving for one and found out they'd been discontinued. why must everything I love be taken away?

    they didn't do away with them

    Fat frogs became alcoholic and moved into the adult world with a fair bit of success. Now seemingly out of fashion again, I can see them crawling back into the fridge looking for us to take them back

    Your memory serves you poorly my friend, the yellow section had a kinda gelatinous sheen to it but it was definitely on the rubbery side of wibbly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,050 ✭✭✭token101


    Wibbly wobbly wonders, I haven't seen them in ages though. Or else some of the new Cornettos/Magnums. Is there any coffee ice creams out there?
