12 Classic Ice Cream Flavors That You Need To Try If You Haven't Already

In This Article:

Ice cream is not for everybody, but it is a beautiful thing that many people enjoy. Next time you are feeling adventurous and want to step outside your comfort zones, try one of the flavors on this list that you have not eaten yet.

Here is a list of a few, but certainly not all, of the ice cream flavors you need to try:

1. Vanilla

Yes. Vanilla gets a bad rep. It seems boring and a completely uneventful way to end your meal. But, vanilla offers us a wonderful experience. It gives a way to experience toppings. This flavor might not be adventurous in itself, but it allows you to get crazy with toppings. Add on some Oreos, gummy bears, M&Ms, chocolate fudge, caramel and all the wild toppings you can possibly think of. That is what vanilla is for.

2. Chocolate

Okay chocolate is not an adventurous flavor but if you have not had chocolate or vanilla yet, you are missing something beautiful. Chocolate is delicious – plain and simple.

3. Cookie Dough

Cookie dough is like the forbidden pleasure of the world. Everyone tells us not to eat it because, well, raw eggs typically are not the best thing to be eating. However, cookie dough ice cream gives everyone the perfect opportunity to indulge in one of those forbidden pleasures.

4. Mint Chip

Not everyone loves mint, but for those of us who do, mint chip is one of the best flavors out there. The combination of cold ice cream with the cool flavor and some chocolate chips thrown in to top it all off is extraordinary.

5. Black Raspberry

This is truly the underrated flavor. Stop passing it up, be adventurous and give it a try.

6. Cookies and Cream

This flavor is literally Oreos in ice cream. It is important.

7. Häagan-Daz Triple Chocolate Crispy Layers Ice Cream

This is a very specific flavor but definitely worth trying. Really, anything that is triple chocolate is worth trying.

8. Perry's Ice Cream RIT Special

This is vanilla ice cream with chocolate covered pretzels. RIT knows what they are doing with ice cream.

9. Rocky Road

Chocolate ice cream, nuts, and marshmallows. What more can you ask for? Rocky Road is a must have ice cream flavor.

10. Maple Walnut

My friend called this a "grandma flavor" but it is suitable for all ages to enjoy. For a little bit of walnut in a maple ice-cream flavor, try some maple walnut ice cream.

11. Moose Tracks

Moose tracks is a wonderful kind of ice cream that typically consists of peanut butter cups in vanilla ice cream, but it can come with all kinds of flavors including mint, chocolate and brownie. If you are a peanut butter lover, then there is no question that you should try this ice cream.

12. Butter Pecan 

Vanilla ice cream with added pecans and the slightest buttery taste. Who can ignore butter pecan?

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
