Orange sherbet in a cone. My grandfather used to get it for me after taking me to the park to play when I was around 4-6 or so. He passed away almost a decade ago and every time I have some, I think of him. He was the best.

Pumpkin or peach ice cream has the strongest childhood association for me—a place by the highway sold it fresh & seasonally. These aren’t common flavors either.

Raspberry ripple!

Bryers vanilla would if it was the same as it used to be. That was my go to add a kid. It sucks now.

Young coconut ice cream. It’s one of those flavors we can easily get from those ice cream carts that stop by the neighborhood usually in the middle of the afternoon. There’s also mango and avocado completing the usual three flavors the cart would have, and I would always buy all three flavors available (unless I really hate the flavor).

Some of the adults would opt to have the ice cream served in a bread bun (usually just repurposed hamburger buns, without the sesame seeds), but I always opted for the sugar cones.

Boysenberry

Plain old vanilla. We used to get those big gallon buckets of ice cream cause they were cheap.

Neapolitan. We always seemed to have it around when I was very young.

chip’n’mint

Strawberry.

Plain vanilla dyed blue; they used to call it delfino I think

Honeycomb, from the northern Irish ice cream shop that was Queen Elizabeth’s favourite. The only shop they ever made outside of NI was in Windsor as the queen liked it.

Tutti Frutti. I mean, I hated it then and probably wouldn’t like it as an adult but it seemed to be everywhere when I was a kid.

None, the closest thing would be cheap chocolate spread with some medicine (we didn’t have a lot of sweets at home)

Oh, and Snickers ice cream. It conjures up images of vacationing in Holland or Denmark and trying to fish for crabs with a cord and a cracked open clam. For some reason I feel like the clam tastes like the caramel from the Snickers.
