Italian Ice >>>> ice cream

Growing up in Chicago, it's been this way for me ever since I was a kid. Don't get me wrong I like ice cream, but I enjoy Italian ice so much more I only eat ice cream if it's being given away.

Lol nikka that's where that picture comes from, and exactly what I had in mind when I posted that. Dap&rep that shyt is goated. There used to be another place I think it was called Tom& wendees up north their shyt was A1 too. Honorable mention goes to Ferros right off the Dan Ryan 31st exit down the street from Sox stadium.

Coldstone :blessed:

and now these places let you put whatever you want on it. Options on options. Coldstone be the one that makes me afraid to finish it cuz I might fukk up a everybody's in 2-3 days dolo.


The pints are smaller and the prices are more expensive and depending on where you are, you live so far away from the supermarket that you can't immediately enjoy it when you get home.

But ice cream won't ever die.

Ice cream is fire. Diabetes is not. Folks are just more health conscious nowadays after watching all these older folks become diabetics and whatnot
I've been calorie counting and the amount of calories in a pint of B&Js is crazy. It's been Halo Top for me ever since.

I might eat ice cream 3-4 times a year if that.

I just don't snack or eat dessert like that often.

10 years ago I used to make a big ass brownie, chocolate chip cookie dough sundae and get a cherry Pepsi every Sunday and watch Game of Thrones. :flabbynsick:
