Food ‘n Drink

I can’t think when my love of ice cream started. I remember when I was living abroad we would go shopping to a big cash and carry place and always pick up a 5l tub of Stracciatella icecream which I’d sneak downstairs, grab a bowl and pack as much icecream into the bowl as I could, so that it didn’t look too much!

I first got a taste for Haagen Dazs when I spotted the Baileys flavour. I’d liked Baileys since I was 15/16 and being able to have it in icecream form was great! Out in Germany we were limited to what was in the supermarket, so I only got to have Baileys icecream once in a blue moon.

I can then remember in my final year at University I’d go off shopping to Tescos and now and then pick up a tub of Baileys icecream. A few times the large 500ml tubs weren’t available but you could get a box of 4 mini tubs, one of which was the Baileys flavour, so I’d sometimes opt for these. This is where I got my first taste of the Belgian Chocolate flavour and so my problems started!

The comment on the Haagen Dazs site says

With a full pint in each tub they’re big enough to share - if you really have to…

The last part says it all really! If I have a tub of Belgian Chocolate icecream, I hate having to share
