Ice Cream for Breakfast

One of the must-sees if you visit Stowe is the Ben and Jerry's factory tour.
You aren't allowed to take pictures inside the factory, just in case you might be a Haagen Dazs spy. :) It was interesting though! Kind of Willy Wonka like. Funny how a giant vat of caramel looks slightly less appetizing than I expected.

At the end of the tour, you get to sample the flavor of the day. We sampled Milk and Cookies, which was somewhat like cookies and cream and quite tasty.

After the tour, we visited the graveyard of past flavors. Each gravestone has a witty poem about the flavor. I wish I'd take more pictures, as some of them were pretty clever. Some of the flavors didn't last long and you could see why. Peanut butter and jelly ice cream? Gross!

Hmmmm. I believe

Ben & Jerry's IC = Wedded Bliss.

At least that's what I think!
