Bitter and Sweet

I'm not a big fan of coffee. I love the way it smells, but I can't stand how it tastes.

The other night, we were at HEB, standing in front of the ice cream case, looking for a new flavor of Bluebell. We've already exhausted all the pint flavors, and now we're stuck buying a half-gallon for any new flavors we want to try. Matt suggested the Coffee ice cream, and when I refused, he reminded me that if I want to try every flavor, I'll eventually have to suck it up and buy it. But I wanted a good, chocolate-y ice cream that night. We compromised with Mocha Almond Fudge.

The fudge part is good. When I drown the mocha part in chocolate syrup, it's okay too. But I still don't like coffee. And I'm dreading the day we have to purchase the actual Coffee flavor.

Do you like coffee-flavored ice cream?

Other flavors I've recently tried: Gingerbread House (mmmm), Butter Crunch (bought in pint size, and then Matt tried to eat my pint because it was better than his), Mexican Praline (I thought it was okay, Matt didn't like it).
