I've searched Tesco, Dunnes, Super Valu, Centra, etc. but to no avail.... Banana ice cream cannot be found - it has been replaced with ice cream like "honeycomb" and "marshmallow". Madness...
 
DeeFox - you have me longing for HB banana ice cream. It was without a shadow of a doubt the all time fav in our house. Remember watching our mother with eyes like lasers to ensure all 5 of us got the exact same sized slice. Feel bad now about the pressure we put her through

And AlastairSC - mixing real bananas with ice cream just isn't the same.

Did you check Aldi? They have Banana Ice cream for sale in my local Aldi (Newlands Cross)
 
Never mind banana, why are Ireland and the UK the only countries that seem to regard the absolutely unbeatable pistachio ice cream as some sort of weird kink?!

It's just a regular mundane flavour in most other countries as far as I can see. I don't even really like ice cream but I would commit certain crimes to get hold of pistachio ice cream. I think I've seen it once ever in this country - in Galway about 10 years ago.
 
Mmmmmmm, Banana Ice Cream with a Cadburys Flake crumbled over it, will be having some of that good stuff later.............
 

Have you ever tried the indian desert, Kulfi?
It is an ice-cream type dessert and comes in pistachio flavour. I have had it in restaurants and it is very nice.
I have seen it for sale in stores that sell indian food but have never bought it there so cannot vouch for it's taste.
 
Yeah I've had it many times and order it whenever I can - I love it, the next best thing. Very rich though - it's made with condensed milk and has a sort of grainy texture. A lot of Indians don't bother doing it though and I find it hard enough to get sometimes - mind you, I'm out in the sticks...
 
Try Langtons Restaurant in Kilkenny served with Toffee syrup, Yum.
We need the tourists.

Definite madness. Favourite flavour. Has anyone tried the brunch flavour ice cream? Its quite expensive.
