If they occasionally have Soft Serve Teaberry (like Schon's Tastee Freez used to), then it's well worth it.

I love soft serve ice cream. Well, as much as I enjoy ice cream at all anymore. Lactose intolerance has greatly diminished my intake. But given an option, I’ll choose soft serve every time.

A concrete is simply frozen custard with additional ingredients such as peanut butter, fruits, nuts, etc added. I never understood why they call these toppings with respect to concretes when they’re mixed in.

There’s a chain in the Midwest called Andy’s that does a great job with frozen custards. Culver’s and Freddie’s are burger joints that also have custard treats. I never met a frozen custard I didn’t like.

Is Soft Serve Real Ice Cream?​


By law, ice cream must contain at least 10 percent milkfat. By that definition, some soft serve is ice cream, but the majority of commercial soft serve is formulated with less fat than that, most commonly around 5 percent, so technically it is classified as “light” ice cream.

This most likely is real ice cream.

For the fans of The Meadows here in the region:

What Is Frozen Custard?​


Frozen custard, which can be made in either soft-serve or scoopable form, gets its special rich flavor and lush texture from the addition of egg yolks to the starting base mix.

Tgar loves both real Soft serve Ice cream as well as frozen custard.


Many commercial “ shakes” have little to none milk fat so they can only be call shakes. Etc.
Man I love me some Meadows custard!

Who opens a frozen custard business with the first name Caliche?

Caliche (also known as calcrete, hardpan, or kankar) is a hardened, cement-like layer of soil or sediment found primarily in arid and semiarid regions around the world, especially in West Texas and Eastern New Mexico.
Caliche's is the best ice cream and shakes I've ever had in my life. Plus, the service is impeccable.

And yes I love the Creamery with a rating of 10. Caliche's rating is a seismic 15 and I don't like frozen custard.

I hate to say it, but when I want ice cream I get Haagen Daz even though I live in State College. To me fewer ingredients is better. Take for example vanilla ice cream:
Haagen Daz ingredients: Cream, skim milk, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla extract
Creamery ingredients: Milk, Cream, Sugar, Corn Syrup Solids, Stabilizer (Propylene Glycol Monoesters, Mono & Diglycerides, Cellulose Gum, Guar Gum, Carrageenan), Vanilla Extract and Vanilla Bean Material
