So just about everyone in the world with the exception of maybe some person in like Indochina and me prefers chocolate over vanilla. Let me make it clear that I do like chocolate so no I’m not chocolate hating here. I’m just so tired of chocolate dominating the entire flavor market for everything.
Has anyone ever tried vanilla milk? I absolutely love that stuff, when you can find it. And when you do find it you have to stock up because it’s either only out for a limited time or going out of stock to never be replenished. Why is that?
Oh here’s one. Why do I have to go to Dairy Queen and look up at the ice cream and blizzard flavors and see about 98% of all flavors in some form or fashion having chocolate in them? Wait let me make a small correction, you will find “For a limited time” Cotton Candy Blizzards or the pumpkin or candy apple flavor. Forgive me if I’m leaving something out, I don’t think I’ve been to a DQ in over a year. Partly because I’m not really a fast food guy and mostly because I’m so sick of only having forty- thousand blizzard flavors all of which have some form of chocolate in them. What is this obsession with chocolate in our country?
Applebee’s I have to give you a little bit of love here. Two words, The Blondie! You want to talk about a dessert? That blows away any chocolate dessert I’ve seen on that menu. So for now I say thank you Applebee’s and do say for now because it’s only a matter of time before it will be taken out completely and probably replaced by some German chocolate cake or who knows what.
Notice I said 98% earlier. That 2% is not all reserved for my vanilla brethren either. Butterscotch usually makes an appearance every now and then. I have to give it to butterscotch though it’s not bad but I usually only eat it in protest to chocolate and well of course if vanilla isn’t available.
So here’s my thing. Chocolate, alright I got it. I’m only asking that instead of a 98% chocolate domination in this world that we just up the distribution to like say 20% or maybe even as high as 30% vanilla/non-chocolate flavors. Vanilla is to me what chocolate is to the rest of the world. Someone out there throw me a freaking bone here!

So, are you saying we need more Nerd Blizzards? "Nerd Blizzard? Why you wanna be a nerd?"
ReplyDeleteI'm with you 100% on this one. Chocolate is good, but overrated. I'm a simple person that likes good, simple flavors. It's hard to beat a cone or bowl of plain vanilla ice cream.
I have to agree with you also. I too, like chocolate, but would rather have vanilla. Especially cake, icing, icecream...everything really. I too am a HUGE fan of the Blondie at Applebee's. I am not a chocolate hater either, I am just one of apparently very few Americans who enjoy vanilla. I also love vanilla milk and you can make great homemade milkshakes with that stuff.
