FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

[storm2006]

what makes it french?

Not sure if you are serious or it’s a thread inside joke but it’s because of the amount of egg/egg yolk. The standard is something like 1% and above that you have to call it custard or French. Van Leeuwen is like 5X the threshold so they went with French (they are Brooklyn-based and that sounds way cooler than custard).

I know this because when I first copped I had the same question and have always remembered

Had to cheat on my girl Jeni tonight with a french joint

May I ask the price on this, Stormio?

I am confused on ice cream pricing tbh. I got that from a local Giant (the Mid-Atlantic folks know) grocery store which your run of the mill grocery store. Than Van Leeuwen was on sale for $4.99 and Jeni’s regular price was $8.99. Mind you, Jeni’s was only $7.39 (regular price) in my flavor pics of the Whole Foods freezer.

Grocers tricking folks with the Jeni’s pricing

I ate it under awkward and potentially depressing circumstances but it was EXTREMELY good. Wood recommend.

Damn good sauce man.
I should have bought a few because a lot of TJ items that I mess with end up getting discontinued.

Not for the #MylantaCrew

Yup, they copied Singa's that's why, lol. They got the taste & smell pretty down pat, tastes just about the same.

I never shop at Barterer Joseph’s. I don’t even know where the closest one is. Is it as amazing as people make it out to be or nawl

Yeah, it is.

For certain things.

Their frozen section is unmatched and it’s not even close.

@z what’s this place like?

 

[Comparison Ford]

Trader Joe’s is good for frozen/prepared foods and snacks. I’m not crazy about the perimeter of the store though.

my friend just got this a few nights ago. said it's legit and worth the effort (if you already live in NYC or have a trip planned in general)
