“PB S'more: New from Ben & Jerry’s (BJ’s) for 2024, this flavor is meant to evoke thoughts of the classic campfire dessert with a peanut butter twist. The base ice cream is a toasted marshmallow that has chunks of peanut butter cups, graham cracker pieces, and marshmallow swirls. By itself, the marshmallow ice cream is a bit boring and comes off as a somewhat bland sweet flavor, but thankfully the inclusion of the signature BJ's gooey marshmallow swirls and other mix-ins alleviates this potential problem. Short tangent, this is similar to BJ's other delicious s'mores ice cream (Gimme S'more). The big difference is the marshmallow flavor shines more in PB S'more as in Gimme S'more it gets somewhat masked by the chocolate cookie flavor and omitted marshmallow swirl. Of the three flavors in PB S'more, I detected mostly marshmallow and graham cracker as the peanut butter cups are not as numerous as the graham cracker pieces and omnipresent marshmallow flavor. Although the peanut butter cups are sparser (there's still plenty) than the graham cracker pieces, when encountered they do tend to be larger chunks (a fair trade-off in my opinion). In fact, I found one peanut butter cup that was entirely intact and not simply a chunk (see picture). My only complaint is that my pint could have used a more predominant marshmallow swirl. The swirl appears lugubrious if it can even be seen at all. Those of you looking for a peanut butter ice cream might be slightly disappointed, but for s'mores lovers, this is nearly perfect.

“always awesome homemade creamies along with all things Maple.“

“We ordered a bacon cheeseburger, a cheeseburger,a BLT, and a large fries and it was EXACTLY what we hoped it would be. This is a perfect roadside pit stop. Thanks, Joes Snack Bar!“

“Best food in the area, hands down. Run by friendly and down to earth people. No matter what this guy cooks up, it's a winner. Well worth the cost to support a local business. Even if you have to make a trip out, it's worth it. I came back all the way out from Boston with this exact place in mind, don't regret it for a moment. Stop reading this review and go out and give them a shot, if you're lucky, by then he'll be serving up some of the bomb fried chicken he's been working on. And even if you're not, he's got something for you. Can't recommend enough, go now!“
