| - I understand the concept of food from your childhood, or back home, but honestly, the quality of the ice cream is just not as good as what I've had. My ex bf used to rave about Thrifty Ice Cream before they opened out here and each time we visited his family in California, we'd stop at the Rite Aid and get some. When Thrifty was opened at a gas station over on the west side, we drove over to give it a try and it was a surprise for him for his bday. I didn't like the texture of it in California, so I thought maybe it would be a tad different out here, but no such luck. It tastes gritty to me, like more of an ice milk flavor you find at Chinese Buffets. The ingredients are good, and the Mocha Almond is the one I tried, Chocolate Chip is always what he got, and it was loaded with chocolate chips, but I just don't get the OMG It's the BEST ice cream ever! thought. Back east, in house homemade ice cream was creamy, not gritty. It just wasn't good. I'll stick to Cold Stone.
