Ben & Jerry's Netflix and Chilll'd Ice Cream Review!
If I'm being 100% honest, I've been favoring Hulu lately watching Hey! Arnold, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Solar Opposites. Since the removal of Friends and, more recently, all the Ninja Turtles movies (really, Netflix?), I haven't had much reason to Netflix and chill in quite some time.... until Ben and Jerry's released it's newest ice cream flavor (or, in this case, frozen dessert) Netflix and Chill'd! Disclaimer: I found the regular version too. I went with the dairy free option as I am a little more on the lack toes and toddler ants side and any chance I can get to avoid dairy, not die and still be fat is a win win for me and my insides.
Finally, something worth binging from Netflix since season 3 of Stranger Things! Netflix and Chill'd might not contain any TV shows or movies but what it does contain is peanut butter, swirls of salty pretzels and chunks of fudge brownies. This dairy free version is made using almond milk (a portion of almonds which are fairtrade).
For dairy free, this stuff is pretty damn good if I might say so myself. The peanut butter is strong and over powers the almond milk taste very well. Like all Ben and Jerry's pints, the chunkage levels are off the charts which is always appreciated by fatties like me. The brownies are soft and not chewy. The pretzels are interesting; they're ground up into this lovely gritty textured salty swirl.... something I didn't know I absolutely needed in my life until now.
I'd have to say Netflix and Chill'd is like a fresh peanut butter chocolate pie but in pretend ice cream/frozen dessert form with some little surprise swirls of crushed salty pretzels. All in all, unlike the streaming service, Netflix and Chill'd doesn't have to ask if I'm still there; they know I'm here. They got me coming back for my second and third pint this week. I give Netflix and Chill'd a solid 9.5 out of 10 demogorgons. It doesn't appear to be limited edition so take your time heading out to find this one. I found this at Martins grocery but have also seen both dairy and non dairy versions at Walmart. Thanks for reading!
