Schwan’s Day

Jun 16

Posted by Faith in Schwan's, Treats, Try A Dish | No Comments

Well, tomorrow is Schwan’s day and Laota and I are planning on ice cream! If we each choose one flavor, I know mine will be Confetti Cake because it’s my favorite, but if we each choose two for the week then I think I may try the Praline because I’ve been eyeing it forever and ever.

Last time my second choice was Maple Nut, which was excellent. It’s not too sweet, it’s even sort of mellow sweetness for ice cream, and it’s got a great maple ice cream taste with salty pieces of walnut in it – very nice!

We’re also going to try out that beef-flavored dog ice cream on our cat if the Schwan guy says she can have eat it without any problems.

Schwan’s Day And Review

As we intended to last time Schwan’s Day came around, Laota and I got the Black Raspberry juice concentrate and I’ve got nothing but good things to say about it! First of all, you get a case of six cartons of concentrate, each makes 2 quarts of juice drink – that’s 12 Q of juice drink for about $6 after taxes. That’s 2Q for a dollar – 2 quarts of juice drink actually costs less than buying a 2L of Pepsi.

On top of that the taste is amazing! It’s got a nice, full, round body to it – like grape juice. And a bit of acidity, but you can definately taste the raspberry flavor, which is nice and full like a concord grape. It’s very satisfying, we plan on getting it every Schwan’s day because it’s just deicious.

This week, however, we didn’t have much cash so we blew $11 on two bags of frozen seasoned curly fries – definately worthwhile!
