Pistachio Pistachio!!!!!!

The new Ben and Jerry's flavor this time is Pistachio Pistachio.


Ben and Jerry's Pistachio Pistachio is Pistachio Ice Cream with Lightly Roasted Pistachios (how many times can you say Pistachio in a sentence?!).


Very simple flavor with very simple ingredients but an interesting flavor. Usually, a flavor with nuts in it has something else in the pint as well, like chocolate, caramel or other flavors. But this is just pistachios. There is nothing else in the pint but Pistachios. I think that is unusual for an ice cream flavor but a cool idea nevertheless.

The ice cream itself is very creamy but it doesn't have a strong pistachio flavor to it. The actual pistachio nuts in the pint enhance the flavor of the pistachio ice cream. The pint has whole pistachios in it, and there is a good amount of them in the pint. You can get at least one pistachio in each spoonful. The pistachios themselves are not soggy and they have a nice crunch to them. I like that they are lightly roasted as well. It definitely gives the flavor and the ice cream a different texture and taste that I am used to.


Sometime this week I am going to Walmart to try and find the new Ben and Jerry's Cannoli flavored Ice Cream. If I can't find it, I will get another flavor.

Thanks for reading!

I am in MICHIGAN!!!

After living in a hotel for 5 days and getting my keys to my new place, I am finally settled in Flint, Michigan!! I have been without internet for over a week and I just got it last night. Now I can finally post something!

I started my graduate classes last week and I am studying like crazy already. The next 3 years will be very long and difficult but I know I can get through it.

Anyways, while in Michigan, I stopped by the Walmart (they are HUGE here) and picked up 2 flavors; Blueberry Cheesecake and Pistachio Pistachio. I am going to try one within a few days and hopefully have a review soon.

That is it for now! I have to go back to studying!
