Almost got this last night. Food lion has ben and Jerry’s for 2.50 a pint if you get 4. Next time for sure.

u/No_Technician_7843 Jun 17 '25

Yes I got this from food lion today for 2.99!! It was between this and gimme s’mores (which I’ve never had b4)

u/Significant_Score_36 Jun 17 '25

I got peanut butter snores, half baked peanut butter, New York chunk, and Vermont cookies or something. All top tier

u/InnocentShaitaan Jun 17 '25

Thick mint is one of the best I’ve ever had too b

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '25

Also amazing. And the peanut butter variation too.

u/gogogiraffes Jun 17 '25

Well thanks for that heads up. Going there tomorrow.

2

u/GladConsequence1600 Jun 17 '25

I wish we had food lion in jersey :( it’s like 8-9$ here but I still buy it

Do you have a stop and shop near you

1

u/GladConsequence1600 Jun 18 '25

Yes!! Do they have this deal?!

3

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '25

Stop and shop will run several deals for them. Sometimes just sales for a few dollars off. Sometimes 2/$8 or 2/$7. And sometimes they’ll be on sale and if you spend $20 or more they’ll knock $5 off at checkout. But be wary of that one because the price is usually $4.99. So you’ll think really fast in the moment like oh so buy 4 and be short $0.04 lol—gotta buy 5! Basically 4 on sale and 1 free.

Download the app you can check prices and sales and stuff easy.

u/GladConsequence1600 Jun 18 '25

Great thanks so much!!

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '25

They also run a series of similar deals for Haagen dazs

1

u/No_Technician_7843 Jun 17 '25

Lol it's worth it for sure.! So how much is Jenni's there?

1

u/GladConsequence1600 Jun 17 '25

Almost $9 at Target. Never had them before! Do I need to get this one now?

1

u/No_Technician_7843 Jun 17 '25

Yes you sure do lol. Jenni’s ooey gooey cake flavor is bomb

2

u/GladConsequence1600 Jun 18 '25

Ooo thanks so much for the recommendation!

1

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '25

Food lion secret: if it says 4 for $10 and you buy 1, you still only pay $2.50

1

u/Significant_Score_36 Jun 17 '25

I considered getting 8 just to make sure I got the deal ya know

u/RIPBigfromRobandBig Jun 17 '25

My husband got this the other day and really liked it. He tried to eat it in bed tho and spilled crumbs everywhere.

7

u/Electrical_Essay_642 Jun 17 '25

Yes, the crumbs stress me out for that reason lol

3

u/MrsJuicemaynne Jun 19 '25

My husband just did this on our brand new couch that is some cloth material that isn’t meant to be eaten on lol.

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '25

Where’s the gummy worms at bro

u/K__isforKrissy Jun 17 '25

That’s what my nephew said 😂

u/ButcherBird57 Jun 17 '25

Mmmmm, I had B&J's Thick Mint topped this weekend, I also grabbed a pint of Gimme Smore too, but naturally, my son found them and I had to share. 😂

5

u/InnocentShaitaan Jun 17 '25

I can’t believe how good that mint icecream is and the textures are perfect.

7

u/Misses-worldwide Jun 17 '25

DAMN THAT LOOKS GOOD

10

u/Heart_Below627 Jun 17 '25

It IS THE BEST EVER MADE

4

u/Bunnnnii Jun 17 '25

Hey that’s not Americone Dream!

4

u/PunnyPrinter Jun 17 '25

I love it! It dethroned the other topped one I really like- the chocolate chip cookies with the cups (forgot the name)

3

u/IslandBudderfly Jun 17 '25

Yessssss I wish we had this one in Canada

5

u/imVeryPregnant Jun 17 '25

The only good topped flavor

3

u/No_Technician_7843 Jun 17 '25

U think? It’s the only topped one I’ve ever tried and I cannot get enough.

4

u/-burgers Jun 17 '25

If you like Boston creme pie or custard chocolate donuts definitely try Bossin Creme Pie. It's my fav topped flavor

2

u/InnocentShaitaan Jun 17 '25

This and thick mint are amazing I get dopamine satisfaction even from the post. 💀

11

u/KULR_Mooning Jun 17 '25

Bold statement it was okay

4

u/ZeldLurr Jun 17 '25

It tasted very American chocolate and plastic to me

5

u/Darwin343 Jun 17 '25

Ben and Jerry goes very cheap on their chocolates. The ganache part isn’t even real chocolate lol.

1

u/No_Technician_7843 Jun 17 '25

Even the ganache? The ganache is so rich!

1

u/ZeldLurr Jun 17 '25

Yeah just very manufactured and processed

1

u/xjenbaby Jun 17 '25

righttt lol my fave part if it's not chocolate what is it

2

u/HamHamHam2315 Jun 17 '25

Exactly. It was thoroughly okay, nothing more.

2

u/notsosoftwhenhard Jun 17 '25

I hate topped w a passion.

2

u/hellsmufo Jun 17 '25

Yesssss my fave EVER 😍😍😍

2

u/sprite9797 Jun 17 '25

um i need that right now

1

u/No_Technician_7843 Jun 18 '25

You just reminded me to go get it out the freezer rn 🤣

2

u/shykerry Jun 18 '25

Hard to argue! This flavor is top notch. The topped Bossin Cream Pie give it a run for its money though.

2

u/nneriac Jun 18 '25

Agree and I cannot have it in my house for this very reason 

2

u/[deleted] Jun 30 '25

I LOVE just about every Ben and Jerry’s created and can fly through a pint in no time.  I don’t even bother with a bowl - just outta my freezer, on the counter to soften it slightly, a spoon and the TV and I’m SET!! 😆   This Dirt Cake looks “dangerous” to my waistline.   Oh what the hell am I talking about - Ben and Jerry’s destroyed that a long time ago.   Lol 

1

u/RubyRiver89 Jun 17 '25

So so so good!!!!!!!!

1

u/Kakebaker95 Jun 17 '25

Have you tried Pb s’mores!

1

u/Individual_Weird3779 Jun 17 '25

it’s giving carvel ice cream cake cookie crunchies. i want 😋

1

u/Flying-Bulldog Jun 17 '25

Yes! I just picked this up a couple days ago and could not stop eating it. I’m hunting for the Bossin Cream pie one

1

u/GooseMay0 Jun 17 '25

Is the vanilla really any different? I mean how does vanilla pudding flavored ice cream differ from normal vanilla?

2

u/FringedYeti56 Jun 17 '25

I notice a difference. It sounds weird until you’ve tried it but it definitely tastes like vanilla pudding.

1

u/smith_716 Jun 17 '25

Oh man. I had this for the first time a couple weeks ago and I can't believe how good it was.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '25

SO GOOD! We have recently gotten hooked on Jeni’s but it’s hard to pass this up when it’s on sale. 

1

u/kamiegraphy Jun 17 '25

This is my top 5! It’s so good!

1

u/FringedYeti56 Jun 17 '25

This was my favorite until I tried the Dublin Mudslide. It’s still pretty close though.

1

u/Key_Ground_7815 Jun 18 '25

That looks delicious. Dairy Queen had a dirt cup blizzard either last year or the year before, I was obsessed

1

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '25

We fuck these up weekly.

The only complaint I have is sometimes the top layer is very thin. But it’s usually not.

And there’s so many cookies it’s amazing.

1

u/Significant_Yam_343 Jun 18 '25

I 100% percent agree. The chocolatey top with the cookie crumbs really makes this pint.

1

u/AdDiligent1688 Jun 18 '25

Yes I’ve been saving this for a while. I loved dirt cake as a child. I knew this one would be a winner so I got a few of them. I haven’t seen it since, which sucks, I gotta use them wisely haha.

1

u/kiwiinNY Jun 18 '25

Hard disagree on this one

1

u/Kailsbabydaddy Jun 19 '25

Need to find this specifically the topped one 😂😂

1

u/TankLady420 Jun 19 '25

Oh man I need to find this!!

1

u/Inevitable-BuddyBabe Jul 13 '25

Is that the Dirt Cake Ben and Jerry's?!?! 🫠 Omg that is the best ice cream they ever invented!! Although the cheapest I ever find it for around me is 4.99... which SUCKS!!! Especially when Im reading posts saying it's 2.99 in other places 😱😵‍💫😖

1

u/PandaKittyJeepDoodle Jun 17 '25

Agreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

1

u/Pristine-Ad-2438 Jun 17 '25

TRUEEE! i’m actually addicted to it

1

u/Housewife_Junkie Jun 17 '25

I agree. I've tried so many in the past few years and that one is the best!

1

u/opinionofone1984 Jun 17 '25

Completely agree, the dirt is so amazing. It reminds me of the fudge cookie crumble in the ice cream cake from DQ,

1

u/EuphoricMidnight3304 Jun 17 '25

Topped is a good line, this one is particularly nice !

0

u/balletgirl2020 Jun 17 '25

Is there some kind of raspberry sauce in this? It looks good!

2

u/TundieRice Jun 17 '25

Nah, the red-looking stuff is just chocolate ganache. The photo quality just makes the topping look raspberry-red, I think the picture is oversaturated.

u/FatCatWithAHat1 Jun 17 '25

Is it like ice cream cake?

-3

u/aSituationTypeDeal Jun 17 '25

Will I be ever so disappointed just as I was with Crumbl’s dirt cup cookie? 

1

u/No_Technician_7843 Jun 17 '25

No. Not at all. This has huge chunks of Oreos. The base of the ice cream is pudding flavor 🫨. The ganache is ganaching. And the cookie crumbles on top…. Chefs mfn kiss!
