As spring winds down and electricity bills ramp up from air conditioning, grocery stores nationwide are busy curating their ice cream supplies to make room for this season\u2019s newest releases. <\/p>\n
Walmart is no exception, and it’s entirely appropriate that it, as the most distinctly \u201cAmerican\u201d superstore, be the exclusive distributor of Ben & Jerry\u2019s two newest pints celebrating summer in the USA. <\/p>\n
This Old Glory-themed pint blends pieces of shortbread cookies with raspberry, blueberry, and vanilla ice creams. Colorful name aside, this appears woefully pale under the lid, and its taste is similarly one-note. <\/p>\n
![\"Ben](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ben-Jerrys-Red-White-Blueberry.jpg?resize=600%2C600&ssl=1\" "\\"Ben")
<\/p>\n
Rather than enhancing the more interesting blueberry and raspberry ice cream swirls, the intense vanilla base comprised roughly 70% of this pint\u2019s volume, and almost entirely masked every unique component promised in this flavor\u2019s description. <\/p>\n
Granted, Ben & Jerry\u2019s makes an excellent vanilla ice cream (so excellent, in fact, that Delish.com declared it to be the best vanilla ice cream you can buy in stores), but nobody is buying this Walmart-exclusive because they want something so…vanilla. <\/p>\n
Blueberry is a woefully underrepresented flavor in the frozen dessert aisle, and I was hoping for this to be its moment to break out into the limelight. Sadly, the only blueberries I found were in the swirl\u2019s light purple color. Somehow, the raspberry ice cream was even more indecipherable. I didn’t see a single trace of pink or red in my entire container.<\/p>\n
Even the shortbread pieces seemed uninspired. Although not entirely terrible, they were soggy, lacked any notion of creativity, and didn\u2019t seem up to par with Ben & Jerry\u2019s usual \u201ceverything plus the kitchen sink\u201d attitude.<\/p>\n
Supposedly a more expensive and less portable spin on the classic childhood treat, Ice Cream Sammie combines chocolate sandwich cookies and chocolate cookie swirls into a base of rich vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Like Red, White & Blueberry, this flavor also failed to live up to my expectations. Unlike its sister pint, however, the issue here isn\u2019t from lack of flavor. Rather, the true nature of this pint is misrepresented by its name. The cookies used here are basically Oreo-like, not true ice cream sandwich wafers. That difference may seem minor, but the impact it has on how this ice cream comes across is enormous. <\/p>\n
Rather than reminding me of actual ice cream sandwiches, this is more like Cookies \u2018N Cream on steroids. Is it a good version of Cookies \u2018N Cream? Yes, absolutely! (And if you\u2019re into Cookies \u2018N Cream, then this is something for you to pick up on your next trip to Wally World). But is it like those unmeltable ice cream sandwiches I loved so much as a kid? Not even close. <\/p>\n
Although those in search of the ultimate Cookies \u2018N Cream may dig Ice Cream Sammie, both of these Walmart-exclusives were way off the mark for me. With so many other delicious options from Ben & Jerry\u2019s, I\u2019d recommend sticking to your usual favorites during your next ice cream run.<\/p>\n
