Things that bother you or don't make sense.

You can actually have it shipped to you (packed in dry ice) - but it's expensive as hell that way. Could be worth it though.

I don't know if I like it that much. :} I was pleased (and not pleased lol) when I noticed my local grocery store carrying it. It used to be something diners mainly served. Haagen Dazs is mmmm really yum too. Pricey tho.

I had a Vanilla-Chocolate covered Haagen Dazs and next thing I know my throat starts itching then swells up and I am having a hard time breathing.Come to find out I have a food allergy to something in there ice cream.I Think it might be whole egg they use when making it.I can eat eggs well done no problems but If the yolk raw - runny I am in trouble.

aw, that sucks.
their ice cream tastes like someone just made it right then and there. my mom's side were all farmers, and one summer when i was very young, we visited one of their farms, and my aunts made homemade icecream...with ice and cream. lol i will never forget the taste, and the good memories.

 

[DarkShadow]

Yes I really enjoyed how rich and tasty it was but suffered for a while afterwards.I learned to read ingredients labels from that point on.

I'm quite flammable myself... as demonstrated with Black Cats.

 

[ShooterJ]

Why do some of my colleagues take credit for others' work?
Why does Blue Bell ice cream taste far better (but is far less healthy) than broccoli?

My two conundrums for the day. :/

For anyone who's not had Braum's Ice Cream.. it should be outlawed. Nothing should be that good, and so bad for you.

 

[TATTRAT]

Wow, so many first world problems in this thread. How lucky they have it.

 

[sm4him]

The fact that artificial fireplace logs have a warning on them that says "Caution: Contents may be flammable" ....

If they weren't, I wouldn't buy the damn things!

anything pretty much is flammable lol well...if making fake logs is anything remotely like making games work...um...yeah
:}

Not really...a few years back (okay, a LOT of years back, probably a decade) my sister and I took my boys camping. She said she already had some charcoal so I didn't buy any. Turns out, what she had was that Match Light charcoal that already has lighter fluid on it and is supposed to start really easily. Only she'd had this bag of it for who knows how long.

Turns out, really OLD Match Light is the antithesis to easy-start charcoal. It was like trying to get a rock to burn--even pouring more lighter fluid on it, or using wax fire-starters didn't work. The lighter fluid or firestarter would burn, but the charcoal never did, not even a little bit.

 

[ShooterJ]

Lol.. wow.. that's pretty sad.

EVERYTHING is flammable if you get it hot enough!

 

[ShooterJ]

Sometimes it doesn't even have to be that "hot".. JP5 has a flashpoint of around 83 F

Getting blamed at my work for others incompetence simply because I'm casual and don't get the chance to defend myself when the issue comes up.

Kurieg coffee is terrible and too expensive.

wow, that's something! i stand corrected. haha

yeah, that always sucks. i'm sorry to hear of that. i hope things get better for you.

i rather like it, depending on the brand. it IS very pricey though for what you get. i think what i enjoy about it is, the intensity of the coffee is the same every time i use the keurig, as opposed to making my own pot. never quite know how that might turn out.

 

[ShooterJ]

esselle.. Braum's is a food chain in the central US, some of the southern states specifically.. they make burgers, breakfast, hotdogs, etc... but each restaurant also has a store in it with dairy products.

They have several dairy farms where they process their own brand.. and ice cream is one of the things they do.

They're good!

 

[Josh66]

We have Braum's here too. Decent food, good ice cream, and consistently the cheapest dairy products you can find. Cheese, milk, etc - is like half the price that the local grocery store sells it for.
