things i enjoy about nz, part 4

to make up for having not updated in a while (school sucks), i thought i'd have a bonus entry today. while milkshakes here just don't exist and the ice cream could be better, there are two frozen treats here i just can't get anywhere else.

memphis meltdowns and frujus

let me start by saying this is the most awesome ice cream bar ever. aside from the out of print milky way bar, that is. the proportions are just perfect: it's got the right amount of ice cream, raspberry goo, and chocolate. and it all tastes so yummy. they make other ones but this one is just perfect. the raspberry is tart which helps cut the sweetness of the ice cream and chocolate. there's a gooey caramel one which i think is good, but sweetness overload.

frujus are also delicious. it's the closest thing to a popsicle here (well, for me at least since the only flavour i like is orange), but it's a little different. for starters, it tastes like actual oranges instead of the fake crap popsicles use. so that's a good thing, right? i can eat one and i'm getting probably 5% fruit juice, which is more than i'd get from a popsicle! they're so yummy though, and very refreshing. i don't really need the refreshing bit anymore since it's cooler, but it's a great summertime treat.

while i may not be able to get a good malt here, at least i have these things to tide me over!
