N.C. Double Scoop: Scooper Bowl

September 20, 2008

It comes down to this: two classic flavors, battling it out for supreme licks. Vote.

Mint chocolate chip vs. vanilla. Is this match-up proof that vanilla isn't boring and green dyed ice cream isn't radioactive? I'm not sure. What I do know is that I love vanilla ice cream. I love vanilla bean, French vanilla, malted vanilla, and regular vanilla. I love that vanilla comes from very special orchids. I love that I just learned the Latin derivative of "vanilla." Wow.

…Ahem. I do want vanilla to win like the classic, stately old lady that she is, but mint choco-chip has many minions. Legions of minions. So, cut down the net because it's mint chocolate chip for the WIN!
