Yup and the grain in them is worth about a nickel. I buy the cheap(er) bag stuff if it's available.

Yes, Blue Bell is still a full half-gallon, but they're only in the South. It's a shame, y'all are missing out on some damn fine ice cream.

I like the smaller packaging. It's less waste especially for the half gallon icecream. It is a struggle deciding to pay up to 5 dollars for a pint or 3-4 dollars for a half gallon. I only need a pint.

If you buy the whole grain with no high fructose corn syrup like Wheaties you get more bang for your buck and your body will thank you.

Ice cream freezes well. You don't have to eat it all at once.

The problem is, after eating a certain amount, I do not eat it and it gets freezer burnt.

I do best just getting an ice cream cone occasionally.

Life cereal here. I know... and it bugs me too. I like the frosted kind. My grandson likes the plain without milk. Me, I gotta have milk.

Now, you get something like a 6.3oz can for $1.50
