Product Review: Edy's Mango Ice Cream
Edy's has some pretty good flavors of ice cream. They're responsible for the Girl Scout cookie flavors, and those are deeeelicious.
I like mangoes. I like ice cream. I was pretty excited when I came across it. I like peach ice cream. And strawberry ice cream. It should be really good, right?
Wrong.
This stuff is terrible. So terrible I couldn't even find a picture to show you.
I've read a couple of raves about this stuff, but most of them seemed to come with "tastes great after traditional Indian food" or "has a great Mexican flair", so maybe I'm a little too boring for it? Maybe if I jazzed up my dinner menu with some international cuisine it will taste a little better? Unfortunately, I don't think so.
Instead of having a sorbet texture, it has an ice cream texture, which would be great if they had made it more of a fruity ice cream. Instead it's like heavy cream with some mango thrown in. Not to mention the chunks of mango taste like processed chunks of mango-flavored gummy bears.
If you're brave - go for it. This stuff is now in the freezer at work so that some unsuspecting victim might come along and down some of it for me, so I don't feel bad throwing it away.
Edy's, FAIL.

Ice cream after Mexican or Indian food just sounds wrong in itself!
ReplyDeleteIf ice cream isn't good on it's own, then YES, it's a total FAIL.
Boo Edy's!
Mangos and ice cream do not mesh with me...I'd agree with you without even trying it.
ReplyDeleteOh no, ice cream should always be good!!!
