Cherry for me, my grandma would always have it and it was always delicious.
(I ask this as I am eating cherry ice cream)

Orange sherbet in a cone. My grandfather used to get it for me after taking me to the park to play when I was around 4-6 or so. He passed away almost a decade ago and every time I have some, I think of him. He was the best.
Orange sherbet was also a thing my step dad gave me, he’d always be excited to bring it home.
Boysenberry
that’s also great for meat, minus the ice cream part
What is it made of?
I would imagine boysenberries. 😅
Ooo, That’s super cool!
It’s like, all the berries combined.
Hokey Pokey ice cream. It’s a vanilla ice cream with honey comb pieces inside of it. I’m positive that most kiwi kids would answer the same way. A close second is boysenberry ice cream.
Same! Passionfruit also. Mmmm.
Plain old vanilla. We used to get those big gallon buckets of ice cream cause they were cheap.

Back in my home country we had this “cream” flavor that was like a mild yellow colored vanilla buttercream. I’ve never been able to find the exact equivalent in the US. Closest are panna cotta or butter (ie: butter pecan)
Boysenberry. It’s weirdly become very rare at least where I live. It used to be quite common
chip’n’mint
I learned to like it because of Johnny Test, it still is great.
Same. I didn’t care for it much. My dad always got the good stuff, vanilla.
I don’t even remember who made them, but the little single serve cups of chocolate ice cream with the wooden spoon
SUPERMAN!
Young coconut ice cream. It’s one of those flavors we can easily get from those ice cream carts that stop by the neighborhood usually in the middle of the afternoon. There’s also mango and avocado completing the usual three flavors the cart would have, and I would always buy all three flavors available (unless I really hate the flavor).
Some of the adults would opt to have the ice cream served in a bread bun (usually just repurposed hamburger buns, without the sesame seeds), but I always opted for the sugar cones.
Have you ever tried the bun?
Yep, I tried it. It actually is good with the bun. It’s like a poor man’s ice cream sandwich.
None, the closest thing would be cheap chocolate spread with some medicine (we didn’t have a lot of sweets at home)
Pumpkin or peach ice cream has the strongest childhood association for me—a place by the highway sold it fresh & seasonally. These aren’t common flavors either.
What was your first memory of eating it?
Tutti Frutti. I mean, I hated it then and probably wouldn’t like it as an adult but it seemed to be everywhere when I was a kid.
Oh, and Snickers ice cream. It conjures up images of vacationing in Holland or Denmark and trying to fish for crabs with a cord and a cracked open clam. For some reason I feel like the clam tastes like the caramel from the Snickers.
