Ice cream cos. are in the throes of releasing their holiday flavors – most commonly peppmint, pumpkin, & eggnog – but Dreyer’s has one that’s sorta novel: Gingerbread Man, cinnamon ice cream w/ brown sugar swirl & ginger cookie pieces. Too bad Dreyer's ice cream is so bleh. This flavor has been out a couplo yrs but wasn’t as widespread as the others. Speaking of not widespread, Starbucks has a new MAPLE Latte but heavens to murgatroid, it’s only available in new England and Canada

Dreyer's Gingerbread Man

It sounds like a spicy version of the Oreo-cookie-and-cream style ice cream.
ReplyDeletenow even i might go to starbucks for a maple latte. guess they are offering them in canda because of the maple leaf emblem
ReplyDeletelook twisted, enough already w/ the goddamned salmon. yes yes you live in the pac NW. but salmon should be salmon, not soda, not latte. we've about had our fill of the salmon. not another WORD about the salmon
ReplyDeletems.ery could drink her maple latte as she eats her maple walnut ice cream. ms.ery, i just made a pear crisp sweetened w/ maple syrup
ReplyDeleteI have an adorable little purse shaped like a gingerbread man, if you can imagine that. And get this: I bought it in Paris! :)
ReplyDeleteI had high hopes for that thing (the gingerbread latte) but found it to be pretty funky. I do like their gingerbread biscotti, however
ReplyDeleteWHAT THE HELL DID YOU THINK A GINGERBREAD LATTE WOULD TASTE LIKE?
ReplyDeleteHey Twisted, you heard TG, no more comments about salmon.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you're all talking about gingerbread and salmon, when the BIG news is the Snagglepuss link!!!
ReplyDeletegingerbread is just the worst flavore
ReplyDeleteI'll join ya ms.ery.
ReplyDeleteClaire, I've had the gingerbread latte but prefer the pumpkin.
ReplyDeleteBack to you, Captain.
Heavens to Murgatroyd, Snagglepuss is a CLASSIC, even!
ReplyDeletebk's blog, explain to ms.ery that it isn't just cuz of the FLAG that they'd market a maple latte to canada
ReplyDeleteSNAGGLEPUSS IS NO PURPLE TELETUBBY, BUT HE AIN'T CHOPPED SALMON EITHER.
ReplyDeleteI like this a great deal. I just got this and their pumpkin and both are good, not great, but good.
ReplyDeleteOh and I prefer the pumpkin latte to the gingerbread.
ReplyDeleteThat's good to know, Captain.
ReplyDeletehey, i'm interested in the captain's preferences. he has good taste
ReplyDeleteMe too, but I also had to outpost him, TG.
ReplyDeletetg: i tried to send you a ny times mag story on an appliance that dices, sautes and whatever you need to complete your dinner.it is sold only on the party route, a la tupperware. they are just under $1,000 each. lets get on the sales roll and make a killing (and i include all nyce bloggers including twisted dog who is not half as smart or cute at catahoulla 86)
ReplyDeleteWTF Ms.ery? Quick, someobody get her a Gingerbread latte!
ReplyDeleteI know what makes this ice cream less than great. It is too sweet. Gingerbread is not overly sweet and the ice cream part of this is. It's a great cinnamon hit but it could back off on the sugar.
ReplyDeleteIs that so, Captain?
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
ReplyDeletei don't want to usurp the captain's "last"-ness but i'm pleased to read what appears to be an actual first-hand report
ReplyDelete(goes to store to buy ice-cream)
