Graeter's Changes Ice Cream Lineup

It's a black day if you liked Graeter's black walnut ice cream. But it's a dream come true if you like cookies and cream.

Cincinnati's 135-year-old ice cream maker is dropping three flavors and adding four new ones.

Gone are black walnut, coffee and amaretto crunch. Peppermint stick has been dropped as a year-round flavor but will be sold seasonally.

The new year-round flavors are cookies and cream, cookie dough chip, coconut chip and Buckeye Blitz (peanut-butter cookie dough in chocolate ice cream).

Graeter's is also replacing its monthly flavor calendar with a season calendar, as follows:

° January-March: Mint Cookies and Cream, Rocky Road

° February-April: Cherry Chip

° April-June: Chocolate Brownie, Tangerine Cream

° May-July: Mango Sherbet, Strawberry Chip

° July-August: Peach

° July-September: Watermelon Sorbet

° July-October: Chocolate Coconut Almond Fudge

° September-November: Apple Cider Sorbet

° October-November: Pumpkin Spice

° November-December: Cinnamon Stick, Peppermint Stick

° December: Egg Nog


Graeter's said the changes reflect what customers want.

They drop three sublime flavors and add three types of cookie dough. Cookie dough is for children. More evidence of the infantilization of Americans.

Please look at my siggie.

That sucks.

The three they dropped are all in my top 10. They should leaves the 'cookie' flavors Ben & Jerry's and the boys at UDF. What's next, 'chunky monkey' or a 'Cherry Garcia' ripoff?

Sad about the black walnut.... disappointed about the Peppermint.......... devastated by the Coffee.

What's next?

You'll have to pry my Nectar Phosphate out of my cold dead hands.

If you want coffee, go to Starbucks.

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

Coffee is a standard and my absolute fav. Might as well drop vanilla or rocky road.

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

Too bad they don't serve coffee ;)

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

Mmmmm ...

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

At least they didn't drop Chocolate Chip, what's next?

Turtle Sundaes?

Gummi Worms?

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

I'm glad they extended Cherry Chip beyond February. Next to Black Raspberry Chip it's my favorite.

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

They still have a Mocha Chip.

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

I want to try Buckeye Blitz. Yum.

My favorite is Mint Chip at most shops.

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

Black Walnut is one of my favorite ice cream flavors.

Re: Graeters adds, drops some flavors
 

Too much damn cookie dough. :doh:
