SIR NOSE ON LINE
ice cream
The Nose Says
"I'm not going to waste your time. The following is a wholly unscientific personal list of ice creams we, that is to say The Nose, The Good Lady Nose, and the Baby Nostrils, have tested and like or don't like. It's not an exhaustive list, just the ones we can be bothered to remember. If it's not here and worth eating, drop us a line.
| ONES WE LIKE | |
| Italian home made, only available from cafes and ice cream parlors in Italy | This is the business! If this is available nothing else is worth eating. I’m in heaven just thinking about it. We’ve nothing like it in England. |
| OTHERWISE
WE ALSO LIKE (no particular order) |
|
| Ice Cream Crunchie | |
| Ice Cream Mars | |
| Ice Cream Snickers | |
| Magnum (all varieties) | |
| Sainsbury’s
Indulgence Chocoholic Cherry Ecstasy |
Terrific! Worth blowing the diet. |
| Sainsbury’s
Indulgence Crunchy Nut Toffee Explosion |
Terrific! But not quite as good as chocolate |
| Sainsbury’s
Indulgence Most of the rest of the range, except the vanilla which is ordinary (almost tasteless) |
|
| Loseley vanilla and some flavours | |
| Cornetto Choc ‘n’ Nut | |
| ONES WE DON’T LIKE | |
| Hagen Dazs | Why bother? It’s rotten! How is it people are taken in with fancy packages and clever advertising. To see if it was my inverted snobbery, at home in blind tastings of vanilla, with both family and friends no one liked the Hagen Dazs it scored less than standard Wall’s (which for the price I think is reasonable value). |
| Most ice cream in France except in the Alps where the Italian influence is obvious. | |
| Brief and to the point. | Pseudo intellectual claptrap. |
