Yep. And I'm sure it was worth every calorie.My snack from yesterday: 1280 calories, 64g fat.
The coffee ice cream alone isn't that bad (660 calories), but adding the caramel, whole Heath Bar, almonds, and waffle bowl kind of doubled the calorie count.binary visions said:I hoped that would convince someone to uncover their sins
Yep. And I'm sure it was worth every calorie.
I've seen a whole lot of people in Cold Stone that should not be taking on those excess calories .
A guy there yesterday ordered a "Gotta Have It" that had an entire brownie, several candy bars and at least one kind of syrup in it. I can't even imagine how he finished it.
I didn't see that on the menu. I probably would have stayed with the birthday redux...biggins said:

Dear god, get this man some help.firestorm said:I don't do ice cream. I don't even like the smell of an ice cream shop.
I think that Cold Stone is kind of weak, actually. Yeah, the mix ins are nice & all, but at the core it's just gloppy, half-melted average tasting ice cream. Lots of texture agents & artifical flavors.dogwonder said:...and had this for dessert. Dear God, I have a new favorite ice cream.
I know it sounds odd. I just can't help it nor can I explain it. The sweet smell makes me ill. Every blue moon I'll have a soft icecream cone with the kids and wife but I have to tell me wife what I want and wait outside otherwise I really get an overwhelming feeling of nausea.dogwonder said:Dear god, get this man some help.
The only one in the northeast that I know of is in Springfield, MA.bluebug32 said:Where, where where is this little scoop of heaven? And why haven't I found it yet??
Yeah, there is one at the Basketball Hall of Fame...like two miles from my office. THANK GOD you don't have to buy a ticket to the Hoops Hall to get ice cream though.binary visions said:The only one in the northeast that I know of is in Springfield, MA.
They're all over the place in the south.
The cold stone I went to was at the Palisade's mall, about an hour down the road towards the city. They are supposed to be putting a Marble Slab creamery (I think) in the Poughkeepsie Galleria soon. Never had one of those but imagine is about the same thing.bluebug32 said:Where, where where is this little scoop of heaven? And why haven't I found it yet??
Here on Long Island we have both - they are essentially identical, although all of the cool kids seemto hang out at CSC .dogwonder said:The cold stone I went to was at the Palisade's mall, about an hour down the road towards the city.

Dairy Queen's been doing it for about 20 years. Just with crappier ice cream.narlus said:didn't Steve's (or was it Herrell's?) do this about 20 years ago?
Um. I've been to at least two dozen Dairy Queens, and I have never seen one with a frozen marble slab that they mix in your toppings on.SkaredShtles said:Dairy Queen's been doing it for about 20 years. Just with crappier ice cream.
Yeah. Big difference between mixing with a spatula and a machine. It's the same once it's in the cup.binary visions said:Um. I've been to at least two dozen Dairy Queens, and I have never seen one with a frozen marble slab that they mix in your toppings on.
Are you on drugs?
But with the machine you miss out on the human factor. And mine was definitely made with L O V E. I could tell the way the guy behind the counter was blowing kisses my way.SkaredShtles said:Yeah. Big difference between mixing with a spatula and a machine. It's the same once it's in the cup.
Except the crappy ice cream part.
Did you notice how nice and white and creamy your ice "cream" was?dogwonder said:But with the machine you miss out on the human factor. And mine was definitely made with L O V E. I could tell the way the guy behind the counter was blowing kisses my way.
I would say it tasted salty...but that's just bad taste...SkaredShtles said:Did you notice how nice and white and creamy your ice "cream" was?
It wasn't sort of.............. bleachy........ was it?dogwonder said:I would say it tasted salty...but that's just bad taste...

You bahstid!!Free Cold Stone ice cream cake and smoothies in our cafeteria today!
As long as it doesn't make your poop pink, I'd have to say yes.The cake is PINK though for breast cancer awareness. Can a man eat pink cake and still be a man?
Hell - I'd settle for our cafe *selling* beer.............The slices could have been bigger. It's like going to a brewery and only getting a shot of beer.
I like beer. I think the cafeteria needs to have free beer one day.
But what if you work in a brewery? Do you just wish your cafeteria would sell food one day?The slices could have been bigger. It's like going to a brewery and only getting a shot of beer.
