Trying to seem interesting?

ItsAMoooPoint · 02/09/2025 20:32

Oh no, I genuinely like it 🙈 I always try to hide it when I order it so no one teases me about it though!

Spudlover · 02/09/2025 20:32

It’s genuinely my favourite, sorry! And I’m not remotely interesting.

Dogaredabomb · 02/09/2025 20:32

It's my favourite! Closely followed by coffee.

Woody617 · 02/09/2025 20:32

Genuinely my favourite flavour. I’ve loved it since I was a child.

I don’t really advertise this preference to anyone so definitely not doing it for attention!

TiramisuTastesDreamy · 02/09/2025 20:33

Bloody love it ! Very excited when I see it on offer at a proper ice cream place. That and tutti fruiti 😂

Kangarude · 02/09/2025 20:33

Yes, along with those who eat carrot cake with walnuts baked in 😱
What is that all about?

JustStopItNora · 02/09/2025 20:34

It's my favourite.

Except when I am in Australia when I can't get enough of liquorice ice cream. DH thinks I am a freak.

BarnOwlFlying · 02/09/2025 20:34

My favourite. I always choose it when on holiday, it’s harder to get from supermarkets as a routine flavour though.

thistimelastweek · 02/09/2025 20:34

I'm with you OP.

Where do you stand on opera?

ItsnotnearlyChristmas · 02/09/2025 20:34

DH loves it. In France they it came served with an actual shot of rum. That was disgusting

Although I think if it wasn’t called rum and raisin, it might taste better?

Dogaredabomb · 02/09/2025 20:34

What would the attention be though? No one has ever noticed my ice cream flavour preference. Is it because I'm dull 🤔 am I expressing myself via the medium of ice cream flavour?

LlynTegid · 02/09/2025 20:35

Not my choice, means more of the flavours I like for me.

pinenuts75 · 02/09/2025 20:35

I don’t like it either 🤮

MissyB1 · 02/09/2025 20:35

It’s literally the only ice cream dh will eat. I quite like it too.

Now that is attention seeking.

dizzydizzydizzy · 02/09/2025 20:36

I love it! I loved it when I was a child too. My (young adult) DCs wouldn't like it because they don't like anything with an alcohol taste. I was always happy as child in the 70s to eat brandy butter or other desserts with alcohol poured on them .

fetachocolate · 02/09/2025 20:36

I love it and am an honest citizen 😂

princessspotify · 02/09/2025 20:36

It's my favourite too. My kids always tell me if it's on the menu if we go anywhere

backinthebox · 02/09/2025 20:36

I love it. That and and a scoop of salted caramel in a real waffle cone. Food of the gods.

TheFormidableMrsC · 02/09/2025 20:37

I like it! It was my mum’s favourite.

What’s wrong with liking walnuts in a carrot cake?

OhNoNotSusan · 02/09/2025 20:37

i love a sorbet, passion fruit is delicious

Summersunplease21 · 02/09/2025 20:37

I was very excited to see it feature in our hotel ice cream selection this summer, love it. I ordered a rum and raisin pancake once but it was just a raisin pancake that came with a shot of rum, most disappointing.

People who pretend to like olives however…

Mmm me too, I love brandy butter. And cherry liquers. I don't drink alcohol, only eat it 😋

LadySlipper · 02/09/2025 20:38

I love it. I make my own and it's awesome.
