Man, when Little Debbie isn’t making us fat, she’s making us fatter!
Little Debbie Ice Cream
It’s official: Little Debbie now has a bigger presence in your kitchen than you do…
As if your pantry wasn’t already a permanent home to Ms. Debbie’s snack cakes (how DID those get in there, anyway?), your lunch box has now invaded your freezer too thanks to seven new Little Debbie Ice Creams that are here to absolutely destroy your diet:
- Oatmeal Creme Pies ice cream.
- Cosmic Brownies ice cream.
- Zebra Cakes ice cream.
- Honey Buns ice cream.
- Strawberry Shortcake Rolls ice cream.
- Swiss Rolls ice cream.
- Nutty Bars ice cream.
The new treats are made by Hudsonville Ice Cream – a brand that’s been around since 1926 that you might not have heard of until February 1st when 7 of these Little Debbie Ice Creams showed up on your Facebook feed and instantly gave all of your fat deposits an erection.
And just when you finished those, they added two more.
For a limited-time only, the two flavors joining the lineup are:
- Unicorn Cakes ice cream.
- Star Crunch ice cream.
The ice creams are available exclusively at Walmart, where they’ll be available year-round for just $2.50 a pint!
This review is part of a series. Today’s Little Debbie Ice Cream is:
Little Debbie Unicorn Cakes Ice Cream
According to Hudsonville, Little Debbie Unicorn Cakes Ice Cream features strawberry flavored ice cream with a blue icing swirl, purple sugar crystals and pound cake pieces to create a flavor that is sure to dazzle and delight.
Now, of all the Hudsonville x Little Debbie ice creams, I can say confidently that I was the least excited about this one. That’s because I have no nostalgic ties to Little Debbie Unicorn Cakes, which didn’t exist until a couple of years ago. When I was a kid, unicorns were figments of our imagination – not food.
And unfortunately, this ice cream isn’t all sunshine and unicorns either…
Imagine a milkshake made with too much Strawberry Nesquik. Voila, you have Little Debbie Unicorn Cakes ice cream. In a world where most strawberry ice creams are actually made with (or at least taste like they might have been made with) real strawberries, this ice cream leaves no question that it isn’t. It’s a super-fake artificial strawberry that some will appreciate and some will despise.
Personally, I like Strawberry Nesquik but still grew bored of this flavor pretty quickly. That’s because beyond the strongly-flavored base, none of the mix-ins really brought anything to the table. The wispy blue icing swirl is non- distinguishable on any given spoonful, the sugar crystals add nothing but a little crunch, and the pound cake pieces barely even exist.
In summary, how many unicorns had to die to make this forgettable ice cream?
Burning Questions:
- Unicorns are so 2017. Well, so is this blog, but you’re still here.
- I found your blog by mistake. That’s been my strategy since 2017!
- Whatever – where can I get this? At Walmart, the exclusive home to unicorns.
