Turkey Hill 'Touchdown Sundae'

"Premium Ice Cream Spiked with Peanut Butter Choco Footballs and Swirls of Peanut Butter and Chocolatey Fudge"

KRIS - The packaging of Touchdown Sundae screams Philadelphia Eagles. The box colors are in line with the uniform colors. You can't miss it! This ice cream is only offered in a select area of Turkey Hill distribution, so you may have trouble finding the flavor. Each customer has a chance to win game tickets, but you have to jump through some marketing hoops to enter. Upon opening the lid the ice cream smelled like peanut butter...yum! Major ribbons of peanut butter and fudge were present throughout the ice cream (more peanut butter than fudge). Delicious mini peanut butter filled half-footballs were "spiked" throughout the container. My favorite part was the peanut butter in this ice cream. The thick peanut butter ribbons were hard (from freezing) which was OK with me and the centers of the footballs were of normal PB-consistency. Touchdown Sundae had such a wonderful sugary peanut butter, I kept eating the ice cream. The fudge stayed runny and had more of a chocolate topping flavor and consistency. The vanilla ice cream was OK, serving as the base that held everything together. This Touchdown Sundae was loaded and delicious. As a fan of an Eagles rival, this is about the only thing I might like coming from Eagle Country.

FRED - Turkey Hill's "Touchdown Sundae" ice cream is the "Official Ice Cream of the Philadelphia Eagles." So, do the players eat it? The container is full of football references and pictures an ice cream that looks normal with some choco footballs included. We didn't win the football tickets from the on-container contest, but I don't even know how to determine if we won. We put in the code and just received a form to register for a sweepstakes. Apparently, the code meant nothing. The ice cream wasn't sealed, but it looked good on opening. I was disappointed to find out the "footballs" were actually half-footballs. After all, you can get small choco Easter eggs in the Spring, so why not full footballs? The ice cream mostly tasted like Fudge Royale ice cream with peanut butter. Unfortunately, the peanut butter was kind of nasty. The choco half-footballs were much better, but if I were watching football on Sunday and had Turkey Hill "Touchdown Sundae" ice cream for dessert, I'd be disappointed. I'd rather make my own sundae with good vanilla and much better peanut butter.
