Sweeten Your Summer with Ice Cream
Milkjam Hard Knock Life 2.0
“My pick for premium ice cream at the co-op would be any of the flavors from Milkjam (who for a short time had a location a block from my house near 38th and Cedar). My favorite is the chocolate lover’s treat: Hard Knock Life 2.0.”
–Phil, Franklin Front End Clerk
Jeni’s Gooey Butter Cake
“The first time I had Jeni’s ice cream was with my best friend in her hometown of Columbus, Ohio, where Jeni’s is from. Jeni’s has so many unique, incredible flavors, but my favorite is definitely the Gooey Butter Cake. Cream cheese ice cream, cake crumbles, and butterscotch sauce? Yes, please. I’ll take two scoops.”
–Meghan, Marketing and Communications Specialist
Oatly Chocolate Ice Cream (Vegan)
“I truly love the texture of Oatly chocolate ice cream–it is super smooth and melts in my mouth. It has a hint of oat flavor which I enjoy, and fewer calories than my other favorite ice cream: Ben & Jerry’s The Tonight Dough. I enjoy eating the chocolate Oatly with freeze dried berries or walnuts and pecans; the chocolate ice cream is a great base for a sweet treat after dinner.”
–Aimee, Friendship Grocery Assistant Manager
Jonny Pops (various flavors)
“When the summer sun is here, nothing beats the heat better than a sweet Jonny Pop! The simple ingredients of natural fruit sugars and cream make the fruit and cream pops my first choice for any ice cream craving. And Jonny Pops sticks the landing when it comes to packaging and presentation. The pops are portioned conveniently in recyclable bags and on compostable sticks with an extra nice surprise: as the pop disappears a kind message appears that always keeps me smiling after the sweet treat is finished.”
–Jen, IT System Support Specialist
Milkjam Ridin’ DUUURTY
“You can’t ask for anything better than Oreo chunks and peanut butter in your ice cream! It’s nearly impossible to not finish up the whole pint of it because it’s that yummy. It also too gives me nostalgia of “The Parent Trap” (Lindsay Lohan version) were Hallie and Annie find out they’re twins and bond over their love of Oreo and peanut butter. As a twin myself, I can’t help but love this!”
–Aiesha, Fresh Departments Buyer
