Baskin Robbins or Dairy Queen?

**ParNone** · 06-05-2006, 10:39 AM

I haven't been to a Baskin Robbins or a Dairy Queen, since I was a kid. I really love Blue Bell Ice Cream the best, as their slogan says "Blue Bell, the best Ice Cream in the Country" and it sure does seem to be the Ice Cream of choice down here in Texas. There was a salt mine explosion a few years back, near the Blue Bell creamery and I can remember the main concern of most people was if the Blue Bell Cows and the Creamery were unscathed, then as an afterthought, "Oh and I hope no people got hurt either".

For fast food places though, I like Sonic. They have a really good Sunshine Smoothie and Chocolate Cream Pie shake. The dogs are in total agreement on this too. Say "Sonic" and then get out of the way of the stampede, rushing to get in the car.

Between the two I'd have to say DQ because I prefer soft serve. However, my favorite is The Meadows - mmmmm YUMMY! I also like Bruster's, although they have hard ice cream but the flavors are good

I love TCBY and Dip n' Dots(I'm not sure how to spell it though). At TCBY, I always get an Oreo Joe. MMM, those are delicous and at dip n' dots, i get the cookies and cream flavored ones. Those are really cool because they taste just like ice cream, but they are little dots! But out of the two mentioned, I like DQ better. I love their Brownie Batter Blizzard!

Here is the website. It's like a Dairy Queen but has more variety.

I love Dip'n Dots!! There isn't one around me, but I always get it at an amusement part an hour or so away from me. They beat the other ice creams, hands down!

Stands for "The Country's Best Yogurt". They carry frozen yogurt (tastes just like ice cream).

They used to have a place in the mall where they would sell them, but for some reason they closed it down. Now I have to get them at the water parks close by. I love, love, love them!

Yeah they were at the mall here for a while too, and also shut down. Now I have to drive far if I want them.
