For the third month in a row, I ordered scoop of seasonal ice cream at Salt and Straw after sampling it, only to be disappointed. Usually, the main reason is the ratio of mix-ins to base ice cream being different in the sample than the scoop. Especially, when the mix-ins have unpleasant mouth feel or excessively sweet in bulk versus smaller chunks or quantities.
I hate wasting food, but I have often found myself tossing out their half eaten ice cream. I’m not sure what they can do about this: a lot of people probably find their mix-in to ice cream ratio enjoyable. Maybe some would prefer even more mix-ins. But I sample things so I’ll know if I will like them, and if the sample is not letting me know what eating a scoop will be like, that makes it harder for me to make the right choice.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I could just stick to the classic flavors. If they still had the goat cheese and olive brittle I’d probably just order that every time. But I’m still searching for a new favorite.
