Graeters is actually better, but don't tell anyone in Texas I said that or I'll be deported.

Oooh, I've never heard of Graeter's, so I googled it: http://www.graeters.com/defaul... and it looks like they have some great flavors! I put in my zip code and it showed that our largest grocery chain carries that brand so I will be on the lookout next time I go grocery shopping next week; gotta try it .... they have Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip which is a favorite of mine!

You all made me go and buy Graeter's ice cream. Black Raspberry and Chocolate chip. It had better be good, it cost about twice what Haagen Dasz cost....

Hetty, Graeter's raspberry chip is a favorite in this house. Also try Double Chocolate Chip.

Graeter's ice cream is so rich, and contains so much fat, that after you eat it you can feel a film in your mouth.

I've never had Bluebell but I'll put our Cincinnati Graeter's against it any time! Hey, it's Oprah's favorite, she featured it on her show one time. After that, Graeter's had orders from all over the country.
