Food Ode to the Ice cream

I found it in a lot of different gelato places, but only in Turin itself, not any of the surrounding towns. Are you going there soon?
agreed!
There's a really good place in Vancouver called Marble Slab (maybe the Canadian equiv of Coldstone?) - they make fresh ice cream and you can pick a topping to mix in, so they are like handmade blizzards but better! We also have lots of good gelato places and local dairies that make fresh ice cream. I like this company called Udder Guys - funny name, but yummy ice cream!
^ I've been to a Marble Slab before, they are a lot less popular than Coldstone, at least in my area.
I had some really good ice cream yesterday that I bought from the store- it was by Kemp's/Pillsbury and was called "Cake and Ice Cream" and was a frosting flavored ice cream- like the whipped kind, not heavy frosting taste- w/ pieces of yellow cake and sprinkles. Not overly sweet at all and really creamy and good! I think I may have a new fave for store ice creams!

I love gelato too. When I lived in Austin, TX there was an Italian restaurant opened in my building, they've made Coconut gelato I will never forget
They also made Mango gelato, which was the second best for me.
I'm going to Italy this summer, for a month. So...
getting ready to eat lots of gelato.

I loooove ice cream too 
even plain old vanilla makes me happy. My fave commercial ice cream is ben and jerrys. Strawberry cheesecake is heavenly!!! That's really my all time favorite. I also like the cinnamon buns flavor. I tried it on a whim and it's sooo yummy! Haagen dazs has a sticky toffee pudding variety that was so delicious I finished the entire pint by myself..in a single day! 
but I haven't found it again!
Here in San diego there's a mom and pop ice cream place selling homemade ice cream. Theirs has a third of the sugar and half the air of regular ice cream. It's probably the creamiest, most satisfying ice cream I've had. Really really good! I've read kristen bell is a customer of theirs too, when she used to do the veronica mars series.
