THE ULTIMATE FLAVOR TOURNAMENT (ROUND 5): THE FINAL TWO!
Posted by: Turkey Hill Team
The Ultimate Flavor Tournament is designed to determine the best Turkey Hill ice cream flavor as determined by your votes. Each week we’ll narrow down the field until just one flavor is left standing. We’ll also choose 10 comments at random from all the comments left during the six week showdown and each commenter will receive a one month supply of Turkey Hill ice cream and we’ll choose one lucky comment to receive a ONE YEAR supply of ice cream.
And then there were two. Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup put up a good fight early last week, before fading to finish eight percentage points behind Vanilla Bean. Meanwhile, Light Recipe Moose Tracks continued its amazing run to the final round with a decisive win over Tastykake Peanut Butter Kandy Kake.
Instead of asking Ernie for his opinion of who will win the Vanilla Bean vs. Light Recipe Moose Tracks battle, we decided to let each flavor plead its case for why it should be named Turkey Hill’s “Ultimate Flavor.”
VANILLA BEAN
“First, I’d like to congratulate my opponent for getting this far. It’s been a long road for both of us and we both deserve to be here. Why should I, Vanilla Bean, win the Ultimate Flavor Tournament? Well, I won it last year, which should count for something, and I go great with just about everything. You can dress me up with tons of different toppings. Go ahead, imagine me drizzled with chocolate and caramel syrup, topped with whipped cream and chopped peanuts. I look good, don’t I? And, I didn’t want to have to mention this, but Vanilla is America’s number one selling ice cream flavor…by a mile. Considering all that, I think the choice is pretty clear.”
LIGHT RECIPE MOOSE TRACKS
“Wow. I, uhh, really don’t know what to say. This whole experience has been pretty overwhelming and I’m so honored to be here representing not only the Light Recipe line-up, but every other Turkey Hill flavor who’s not afraid to mix things up with a little something extra. Why should you vote for me? Because a vote for Light Recipe Moose Tracks is a vote for all the fun that goes along with enjoying ice cream. I’m vanilla with fudge swirls and loaded with peanut butter cups…that’s a pretty exciting combination! I’m a Light Recipe ice cream, but I’ve got all of the flavor (and sometimes more) of just about any other ice cream in the Turkey Hill line-up. Oh, and I was featured on an episode of Unwrapped when the Food Network visited Turkey Hill. You gotta admit, that’s pretty cool! ”

If you’ve got a technical question about the ice cream making process or some other inquiry about the nuances of America’s favorite treat, chances are Ernie has the answer. He might not be able to answer all questions, but he’ll try his best and some may be featured on the Ice Cream Journal.

Ahhh, refreshing mint, smooth vanilla, or featured flavors, whatever I’m in the mood for Turkey Hill ice cream has the answer to satisfy my craving.
July 27th, 2009 at 12:08 pmVanilla is soothing when you just need something smooooooth
June 30th, 2009 at 2:38 pmMy favorite of all time is CHOCOLATE MARSHMALLOW…………..I can’t find it all the time but when I do I stock up. It’s my “soothing” snack. YUMMY!
June 4th, 2009 at 9:25 amLight Moose Tracks
April 13th, 2009 at 1:01 pmThe right “Track” is the “light” at the end of the tunnel as the winner. Healthy and the best of all the ice cream worlds. Moose tracks is the strong and steady winner
April 12th, 2009 at 8:43 pmWell….everyone should know if you can make vanilla the best you can make anything with vanilla even better, so Moose Tracks it is….
April 12th, 2009 at 12:04 pmVanilla will always be king no matter the votes
April 12th, 2009 at 11:08 amThe wrong version of Moose Tracks made the final…. so, Vanilla it is!
April 11th, 2009 at 10:32 amThe wrong Moose Tracks ice cream is in the finals… so, Vanilla it is.
April 11th, 2009 at 10:31 amLIGHT MOOOOOOOSE TRACKS!!! This is what all other ice creams should aspire to be! Thank you, Turkey Hill, for this gift to the world!
April 11th, 2009 at 10:02 amI voted for Vanilla because my “very vanilla” husband loves it and there are so many things you can do with it.
April 10th, 2009 at 3:00 pmMoose Tracks ice cream is vulumptuous! (I think that’s a word)
I love how the peanut butter cups melt in your mouth with the cold feeling. Also, moose tracks lite recipe are amazing because my mom gets it now because it’s lite recipe so she doesn’t go overboard on her diet. How convenient! GO MOOSE TRACKS!
April 10th, 2009 at 12:47 pmMy son grabbed the lite recipe moosetracks at the store the other night. I was on my second cup when I realized it was Lite! I was so… excited. In the past when we’ve (mistakenly) grabbed a lite icecream, it ends up going to waste.Up until now I’ve been vanilla bean all the way – I think I have a new favorite. Please don’t make this a “sometime” icecream.
Now – if you would consider packaging in the gallon sizes…
April 10th, 2009 at 8:23 amVanilla is good, but one does need a hint of flavor! My vote…. Moose Tracks
April 10th, 2009 at 8:18 amI am so confident Moose Tracks will win this year!
April 10th, 2009 at 6:41 amSince light moose tracks is so far ahead of vanilla bean, I’m going have to go out and buy some to try it.
April 10th, 2009 at 5:49 amAnything with peanut butter cups deserves to win!
April 10th, 2009 at 2:07 amI think Vanilla Bean is the best. It tastes so good and you can mix whatever you want in it like sprinkles. I always look forward to having some.
April 10th, 2009 at 12:46 amThis is my absolute new favorite flavor of ice cream. I’ve been hooked on it since the first spoonful and now I always have a carton in my freezer. What a great treat at the end of the day!
April 9th, 2009 at 9:38 pmVanilla was the first ice cream flavor I tasted as a child, the first is always the best.
April 9th, 2009 at 9:20 pmLooks like Moose Tracks is pulling away in the race…..actually, I think it’s calling me to the freezer too.
April 9th, 2009 at 9:18 pmLove the vanilla (it is my daughter’s favorite) but this is the year of the moose.
April 9th, 2009 at 6:36 pmWhat can I say Moose Tracks Light-SIMPLY THE BESTco
April 9th, 2009 at 5:41 pmFirst you change your half gallon containers to 1.5 quart containers while still charging the full price, and then you charge the grocery store five cents less for the container. Ridiculous! There are other good ice cream companies in the world, and they charge less than TH. Consider me a former customer.
April 9th, 2009 at 3:59 pmTurkey and Moose go together like two peas in a pod. I can taste those delicious tracks now, mmmmmmmm.
April 9th, 2009 at 3:50 pmI vote for Vanilla Bean. If I am in hte mood for add-ins, I just add them in!
April 9th, 2009 at 3:08 pmI am a huge fan of the Moose Tracks, and to find i can eat even more cause it comes in light is just the best. thanks
April 9th, 2009 at 3:02 pmThe “moose” is on the loose !
April 9th, 2009 at 1:58 pmMoose Tracks? Light Recipe? Turkey Hill? Why is there even a question? I think we already have the answer!
April 9th, 2009 at 12:56 pmLight recipe Moose Tracks is the way to go.
April 9th, 2009 at 12:49 pmNothing wrong with Vanilla Bean but having that delicious mixture of flavor and texture is hard to beat. Keep up the great work at Turkey Hill
Vanilla Bean!!! While I love trying flavors of any kind, I always come back to Vanilla Bean…and if I’m in the mood for another flavor, I can turn Vanilla Bean into it!!
April 9th, 2009 at 11:51 amWhen friends get together,
April 9th, 2009 at 10:42 amno matter the weather
if VANILLA BEAN is passed
the party will be a blast!
I’m a vanilla bean fan goes with everything but all ice cream is a winner in my book!! Good luck!
April 9th, 2009 at 10:41 amVanilla Bean is good, but LR Moose Tracks is better and wins it all!
April 9th, 2009 at 10:34 amI have a very strong feeling vanilla bean will win. All the Turkey Hill flavors are great so I guess there really are no losers.
April 9th, 2009 at 10:09 amI really couldn’t decide. I’m a huge vanilla fan but not vanilla bean just plain vanilla. I’m a big fan of the light ice creams so I went with Moose Tracks.
April 9th, 2009 at 10:07 amVanilla should be #1 again- it’s the most versatile ice cream there is- alone or in shakes or thousands of desserts- its flavor can NOT be beat!
April 9th, 2009 at 9:54 amGo Moose tracks! It is the best, well just about any Turkey Hill ice cream is the best, but this is my favorite.
April 9th, 2009 at 9:20 amGo Moose Tracks! It is the best ice cream, well just about any Turkey Hill ice cream is the best, but this is my favorite!
April 9th, 2009 at 9:18 amMoooooooooooooooooooooooooooose!
April 9th, 2009 at 9:03 amMoooooooooooooooooooooooooooose!
Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooose!
Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooose!
Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooose!
i went with moose tracks,vanilla is just too plain
April 9th, 2009 at 8:57 amI vote for Vanilla Bean, an all time classic and the real champion!
April 9th, 2009 at 8:21 amI agree vanilla is usually boring. But apple pie with vanilla is always on the top of my list.
April 9th, 2009 at 5:37 amVanilla is okay for a kids party, you can buy all the toppings and everyone can make their own. but for me it’s MOOSE TRACKS. vanilla is BORING. chocolate and peanut butter cups, LOVE IT
April 8th, 2009 at 11:50 pmCome on folks, vanilla bean is the most versatile of all. Try it with fresh fruit – strawberries, blueberries, peaches or with great toppings – chocolate, caramel, butterscotch, or peanuts and with plenty of whipped cream. Nothing better!
April 8th, 2009 at 9:25 pmI love moose tracks!
April 8th, 2009 at 9:05 pmMoose Tracks is the ultimate ice cream…less calories, yet so delicious with those amazing peanut butter cups..it’s the best!!!
April 8th, 2009 at 8:49 pmAs much as I love the ability to dress up the vanilla bean and its rich delicious and creamy flavor, I am sorry I have an addiction to the Light Moose Tracks. Just gotta have my chocolate, and Moose Tracks is soooo delicious.
Being Light really pushes Moose Tracks over the top.
April 8th, 2009 at 8:30 pmLight Recipe Moose Tracks is the best!
April 8th, 2009 at 8:09 pmVanilla bean is clearly the winner you can do anything to it to change the flavor its good in milk shakes and floats the perfect companion I vote for vanilla bean its number one.
April 8th, 2009 at 7:37 pmI was all in for Moose Tracks but Vanilla Bean makes some good points. Vanilla Beans’ versatility MUST put it over the top.
Sorry, Moose Tracks. My vote is for Vanilla Bean
April 8th, 2009 at 6:57 pmMoosetracks are great — all year long!
April 8th, 2009 at 6:45 pmGo Moosetracks!!!!!!! Vanilla Bean is going DOWN!!!!! Finally.
April 8th, 2009 at 6:01 pmThey are both terrific ice creams, But Vanilla Bean gets my vote. There is just something about the smooth rich taste of vanilla bean that makes it a delicious treat. Moose tracks tastes good but at times it can be so overwelming. all those tastes together. If I want chocolate carmel and peanut butter in my ice cream i can just add it to vanilla bean which if my tastes buds are up for it will make it taste all the better.
April 8th, 2009 at 5:59 pmGo Moosetracks. Delicious and a more healthy choice in comfort food!
April 8th, 2009 at 5:25 pmVanilla bean gets my vote. There is no better ice cream to top off your other favorite dessert or start a great sundae!
April 8th, 2009 at 5:11 pmGotta go Vanilla, love the taste and simplicity!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:39 pmTeam Tracks all the way baby!!! Need the chunks!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:38 pmVote Vanilla!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:38 pmVanilla is a classic
April 8th, 2009 at 4:37 pmGo Moose Tracks
April 8th, 2009 at 4:37 pmIt’s plain and simple – Vanilla Bean is the best!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:32 pmLight Moose Tracks? One word – PERFECTION! Want three words? IT’S ABOUT TIME !!!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:26 pmGo Moose Tracks Ice Cream. Yummo!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:19 pmI sure to love Trackin’ da Moose!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:17 pmI sure do love Trackin’ da Moose!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:16 pmI live in Maine. I have to vote for Moose Tracks.
April 8th, 2009 at 4:08 pmmoosetracks all the way!!!
April 8th, 2009 at 4:04 pmI just tried the lite Moose Tracks and couldn’t wait till it was finished. I don’t know what that chocolate stuff in there is,but the Chocolate peanut butter drops are fantastic. You can keep the other stuff. I hope it was an accident whatever the other stuff was.
April 8th, 2009 at 3:39 pmHI FOLK’S ITS MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRACKS ALL THE WAY. LOV LOV LOV IT.
April 8th, 2009 at 3:21 pmMoose tracks is the best by far. I had a heart attack and now light ice cream is all I eat and we especially like MOOSE TRACKS. Yum Yum are the peanut butter cups. It is such an enjoyable taste with each spoonful we either get creamy fudge or else a mini PB cup. Vanilla bean is good but Moose Tracks rule the world. Go Moose Tracks!!!!!!
April 8th, 2009 at 3:14 pmThere is no way to allow for some people’s tastes. No matter what the results are, I still prefer Skinny Minty light and urge everyone who has not tried it, to do so. I think you will agree more with my choice than the results of the voting.
April 8th, 2009 at 3:08 pmIn the end the two favorites can duke it out, but they are both winners in my book.
April 8th, 2009 at 2:53 pmMy Mom and I loved the Moose Tracks Light Ice Cream and it always brought a big smile to her face when I brought her a bowl of it each evening as her treat. My Mom recently passed away and now, each time I have a bowl without her, I know she is smiling down on me and enjoying the moment as much as I am. I know she has her ice cream in Heaven, and it would have to be TURKEY HILL MOOSE TRACKS!!! Go MOOSETRACKS!!!
April 8th, 2009 at 1:57 pmA High 5 to “Light Moose-Tracks”! Long Live the New Turkey Hill Champ!
Thanks !
ARR
April 8th, 2009 at 1:33 pmMOOSE TRACKS!! Reminds me of woods: walking on a winding dirt path (those thick, delicious ribbons of dark chocolate) “littered” with droppings (peanut butter cups) on a breezy day with blue sky and white puffy clouds (vanilla “lite”). Those are each great things; but the sum is greater than the parts! And ESPECIALLY Turkey Hill’s Moose Tracks Lite!!! Other brands’ comparable flavors don’t even come close. [I'd sure hope I win a year's worth....]
April 8th, 2009 at 1:22 pmI am so happy to see Moose Tracks ahead and I hope it stays there. It is delicious and you wouldn’t think it’s light if you didn’t know.
April 8th, 2009 at 11:30 amMmmmm, I love Vanilla Bean. Almost every time my husband and I buy ice cream, we buy Vanilla Bean first, and then add one or two other of our favorite Turkey Hill flavors. It just goes so great with everything. We particularly love combining it with homemade apple pie, and also using it in delicious smoothies. Go Vanilla Bean!
April 8th, 2009 at 10:35 amYes I agree. Vanilla ice cream and hot apple pie go hand and hand. An american tradition that must live on.
April 8th, 2009 at 10:29 amMoose tracks is an amazing combination of my favorite flavors. I love the globs of chocolate and the smooth creamy vanilla to back it up.
April 8th, 2009 at 9:48 amI love Turkey Hill ice cream. All the flavors are winners. We have no loosers.
April 8th, 2009 at 9:19 amI like Vanilla Bean but Moose Tracks remains my fav. It gives a bit of texture and is yummy without the calories.
April 8th, 2009 at 9:11 amI love ice cream with “stuff” in it and the light recipe makes me feel like I’m not cheating by watching what I eat and portion control. I love Turkey Hill moose tracks!
April 8th, 2009 at 8:35 amWow, what an unbelievable round. Two great flavors to choose from! But since I have to pick one – Go Moose Tracks!!
April 8th, 2009 at 8:34 amGo Vanilla Bean! Go! Our favorite.
April 8th, 2009 at 8:33 amVanilla is boring. Moose tracks should definately win.
April 8th, 2009 at 8:15 amI just want to say that how can anyone think that moose tracks is better than Vanilla bean come on folks please vote for the “VVVVVV Beannnnnnn” its goes with everything esp when making your very own banana splits… Don
April 8th, 2009 at 7:57 amI was always a fan of Vanilla fudge or Mint chocolate chip but Moose Tracks has become my new favorite. The combination of vanilla fudge ice cream with caramel and peanut butter cups makes ever bowl of ice cream a sundae!
Having a great tasting Moose Tracks ice cream in a “Light Recipe” allows me to enjoy a bowl whenever I want without feeling guilty.
April 8th, 2009 at 7:39 amYES! The underdog is no longer! Way to go MooseTracks light!
April 8th, 2009 at 6:59 amLIGHT Moose Tracks. Great taste and less guilt.
April 8th, 2009 at 6:08 amMoosetracks all the way!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:40 pmBeans are fiber~ good for you!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:20 pmMoosetracks? Light? HEAVENLY COMBINATION!!!…Every person’s dream!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:16 pmlight moose tracks the best! linda in Kentucky
April 7th, 2009 at 9:59 pmGotta go with vanilla bean for veratility.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:42 pmBeautiful, unadulterated vanilla bean….
April 7th, 2009 at 9:23 pmI just love Moose Tracks!
April 7th, 2009 at 9:20 pmANY flavor of Turkey Hill is a winner !!!!! Viva La Vanilla !!!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 8:56 pmGo Moose!!! I love the flavored Light Ice Creams.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:46 pmI am hooked on Vanilla Bean, it is so good in milk shakes, by itself, dolled up with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, Cherry on top. Vanilla ice cream has so many possibilties than the other one. I have always been a fan of Vanilla ice cream since I was little child. It still is with this Grandma.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:26 pmThank you for all the good work and services you all give to us the consumer. Keep the Vanilla Bean coming–
I’m all about Moose Tracks!!
April 7th, 2009 at 8:22 pmI like them both. It is just hard to choose I will just have to eat them both lol!
April 7th, 2009 at 8:19 pmMy money is on bean.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:13 pmVanilla Bean will always be the standby that everyone will eat, so I’ll save the Moose Tracks all for myself! My vote is for Moose Tracks!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:52 pmGo Moose Tracks. You are the best!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:48 pmI just bought the Light Recipe Moose
April 7th, 2009 at 7:42 pmTracks and love it.
I am so GLAD to see my favorite one is in the lead.HORRAY!!!!I just love Light Moose Tracks.
April 7th, 2009 at 7:37 pmBUT I LOVE PEANUT BUTTER!!!!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:28 pmVanilla Bean Premium Ice Cream – I love Moose Tracks but its gotta be real ice cream – none of that light stuff!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:27 pmAs long as it’s Turkey Hill ice cream, any flavor is just fine with me!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:43 pmVanilla bean is nice, but LIGHT Moose Tracks. Tasty and lighter than regular. It has my vote.
April 7th, 2009 at 6:43 pmI will take vanilla bean any time. At eighty =four it is the most versatile flavor. You can make all kinds of exciting sundaes with it. In all my years this is tops. Lill
April 7th, 2009 at 6:33 pmToo bad Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup didn’t make it! I’m going with MOOSE TRACKS!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:33 pmMoose Tracks all the way, baby!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:12 pmVanilla Bean is IT! Best all-around, all-American flavor and taste. Melts in your mouth! Mmm-mm-good ice cream! It’s indescribably delicious!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:04 pmVanillanova didn’t win so I don’t have high hopes for Vanilla.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:31 pmHaving to pick one flavor is hard to do when all the flavors are deeeeelicious!!!! But my choice is vanilla bean. There are so many flavors that compliment the vanilla.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:19 pmWhat a great country we live in. The Presidential Election was a History making event. I can only assume that the Turkey Hillice cream tournament will have the same life changing results! Vanilla Bean Rules.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:09 pmeven though my favorite t.h. flavor is chocolate all natural recipe…vanilla can be made into chocolate with a lot of cocoa mixed in!
April 7th, 2009 at 4:55 pmI finally was able to taste Gertrude Hawk Box of Chocolates and frankly, I don’t care who wins-I am in ice cream heaven
April 7th, 2009 at 4:40 pmWho da thought? That vanilla bean would NOT win. But I still have hope. Keep voting for vanilla bean..
April 7th, 2009 at 4:31 pmVanilla Bean!!! This is the best of the final bracket!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 4:30 pmGo vanilla!
April 7th, 2009 at 4:15 pmYou can do it again! Simple is best!
it seems that there are more moose track people on this site than vanillaers. go vanilla, go vanilla.
April 7th, 2009 at 3:49 pmOf the two Vanilla Bean is my choice since it is so versitle everyone at the table can put their own spin on it and all are happy
April 7th, 2009 at 3:44 pmA shout out to Moose Tracks, gotta love it!
April 7th, 2009 at 3:38 pmVanilla is the top flaver it can mix with any other flaver or toping Go Vanilla The Best
April 7th, 2009 at 3:10 pmMOOSE TRACKS, NO CONTEST!!
April 7th, 2009 at 3:00 pmi love turkey hill ice cream, i have eaten moose track of another, but boy does turkey hill has this beat by A MILE,i now eat only TURKEY HILL ICE CREAM. my 2 favorite are chocolate peanut butter & moose track, they can not be BEAT ( i my self eat a 1/2 gallon every week by myself & this is no joke) just keep it coming. kathy w LOVE IT & YOU
April 7th, 2009 at 2:43 pmgo moose tracks!
April 7th, 2009 at 2:40 pmIf i’m serving ice cream to a family/friend dinner it would be vanilla bean. However, every day my husband likes coffee. nothing with nuts
April 7th, 2009 at 2:32 pmMoose Tracks is AMMOOZINGLY Delicious!! Who could resist the lil peanut butter cups!! Although my Husbands favorite is Chocolate Marshmallow. But I say Moose Tracks all the way!
April 7th, 2009 at 2:26 pmLight Moose Tracks is Yummmmmmmmmmm-O! Always a favorite!
April 7th, 2009 at 2:14 pmmoose support can be deceiving!
April 7th, 2009 at 2:10 pmTried your new Coconut Cream cake and to be honest ; was not impressed with the flavor at all. I really did not sense the coconut flavor itself. i thinl your Rum Raisin is excellent tho. As far as existing flavor to vote l would go with the Vanilla
April 7th, 2009 at 1:41 pmEven without a vote, Skinny Minty is our favorite. Each to his own taste. Mary Lou
April 7th, 2009 at 1:18 pmVanilla Bean for me, nothing with nuts.
April 7th, 2009 at 1:15 pmAs much as I enjoy Moose Tracks or other flavors, Vanilla Bean rises to the top. I use Vanilla Bean in many recipes,in my coffee,served at my parties and at my ice cream bar during celebration functions, particularly for the many children. Usually no one is allergic to vanilla and each can make it persoal with the many toppings I serve.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:49 pmAs a great lover of ice cream, how could anyone vote for other than the Moose Tracks entry? Who could love any ice cream that did not contain chocolate and peanut butter? It is the best!
April 7th, 2009 at 12:42 pmAny flavor beats vanilla in my opinion. Go Moose Tracks.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:39 pmHurray for Moose Tracks. We knew you could do it. Always the best when you want something sweet, cold and chocolatey. Let’s do it again……..
April 7th, 2009 at 12:37 pmHurray for Moose Tracks, we knew you could do it. Always the best when you want something sweet and chocolatey. This was fun, do it again………….
April 7th, 2009 at 12:36 pmMoose Tracks # 1……….. Gotta love it for sure. And it’s light. Can’t beat that! What more could anyone ask for.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:33 pmHow can you go wrong with Moose Tracks, when it’s sooo good and LIGHT to boot! But with so many delicious flavors to choose from,, ya gotta try different ones,, just to keep life interesting!
April 7th, 2009 at 12:12 pmNo matter which flavor wins all Turkey Hill flavors are winners in my opinion. Keep up the great job all you folks at Turkey Hill. Linda
April 7th, 2009 at 12:04 pmYou All Must Try Moose Tracks! It Is Smooth & Creamy! & Delicious!!! I am Hooked! But, I am Hooked To ALL Of The Turkey Hill Flavor’s Anyway!!! It’s A Great Thing!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 12:03 pmIt was a tough decision, but I had to go with the Vanilla Bean.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:00 pmThere is no other flavor than VANILLA BEAN
April 7th, 2009 at 11:49 amI’m all for Vanilla Bean as vanilla is my favorite.
April 7th, 2009 at 11:34 amI’m all for Vanilla bean as vnailla is my favorite.
April 7th, 2009 at 11:32 amVanilla is too…”vanilla”.Must go with the Moose Tracks.
April 7th, 2009 at 11:30 amDid Peanut Butter loose out because of the recent peanut scare?
Vanilla Bean is the favorite in our house! We use it to make sundaes, floats, milkshakes, and pies…there are so many things you can do with it!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 11:26 amwow..the vanilla is cold,creamy and captures my tastes buds to ice cream dream
April 7th, 2009 at 11:24 amLight Moose Tracks will surely be the official flavor in Heaven!
April 7th, 2009 at 11:23 amVanilla Bean is always a great choice! You can dress it up or have it as it is. YUM!!
April 7th, 2009 at 11:23 amah, the pureness and simplicity of the lovely vanilla bean cannot be beaten!
April 7th, 2009 at 11:15 amrule on, vanilla bean!
moose tracks is the winner
April 7th, 2009 at 11:14 amWell, I voted and see my pick, Vanilla Bean, has fallen behind. I know good old VB can rally and take the title because it is so versatile and goes with everything.
April 7th, 2009 at 11:13 amVanilla Bean is a classic. You can dress it up anyway you like with fudge, strawberries etc. My favorite is Vanilla Bean with a little hot caramel and cinnamon roast pecans. Yum!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:54 amVanilla Bean all the way! Sprinkle on some fruit and nuts and a little whipped topping….or eat it without. The flavor is wonderful. I just love vanilla bean!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:51 amIts not over till the large lady sings…and I hope she sings Vanillaaaaaaa Beannnnnnnnnnnnnn.
April 7th, 2009 at 10:49 amI just tried Moose Tracks for the first time last week and I really loved it! Unfortunately my store doesn’t carry a huge variety of flavors and I thought it was time to try something light. Honestly, I would not have known it was a “light” product. Now I’ll have to try some others. But Butter Pecan will always be my favorite, winner or not!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:46 amThey both suck!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:45 amlike old yellow the bean will never cease to amaze us
April 7th, 2009 at 10:42 amI agree with “Joyce”. Moose Tracks so delicious and it is “light”!! Just have to remember not to eat the whole container in one sitting!!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:37 amMoose Tracks and light to boot! Can’t beat the combination of flavors. Sinfully delicious and yet not so bad for you.
April 7th, 2009 at 10:33 amOH BOY—THIS IS SO DIFFICULT BECAUSE EACH AND EVERY FLAVOR IS A WINNER !!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:30 amNEXT TIME I GO TO VISIT MY SISTER IN OTTAWA, CANADA—-I AM GOING TO FIND A MOOSE AND TELL HIM THAT HE IS NUMBER ONE AT THE TURKEY HILL !! THEN HE CAN GO BACK AND TELL ALL THE OTHER LITTLE MOOSES !!!!! LOL
VANILLA BEAN! OMG WHAT WOULD FRESH STRAWBERRIES DO WITHOUT IT? A BANANA SPLIT WITH MOOSE TRACK? A HOT FUDGE SUNDAE WITH NO VANILLA BEAN? I CAN’T IMAGINE IT IN MY LIFETIME…LOL
April 7th, 2009 at 10:27 amIt’s still early, the polls are open til Monday a.m. Right now Light Recipe Moose Tracks(I voted for) is in the lead but Vanilla Bean can make a comeback. Who will the WINNER be???????
April 7th, 2009 at 10:25 amVanilla Bean has always been my favorite so go VANILLA BEAN!!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:23 amGO MOOSE TRACKS- THE BEST- MMMMM,MMMM, GOOOOD
April 7th, 2009 at 10:20 amWhile I am not surprised to see Vanilla Bean as a finalist, I adhere to my conviction that life is entirely too short to eat it! Live life to the fullest and pick a flavor already!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:12 amBye,Bye,Vanilla Bean
April 7th, 2009 at 10:12 amVanilla bean is the REAL THING!!! You can dress it up with different sauces or savor its sweet simplicity! Come on, people — do the RIGHT THING and vote for the REAL THING!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:11 amI follow those Moose Tracks anywhere on any day! Sorry VB!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:09 amSorry, Moose Tracks, but “Light Recipe” doesn’t do it for me. I’d rather eat less of real ice cream than switch to light, so it’s Vanilla Bean all the way!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:01 amThe champ’s against the ropes, but not down yet. This was a tough one but after reading what Dave B. wrote, vanilla bean over warm apple pie, mmmm! I had to go with what’s in the freezer, vanilla bean, I think I’ll make a rootbeer float now! (the breakfast of Champs, with the Champ!)
April 7th, 2009 at 10:01 amTurkey Hill vanilla bean gets my vote. I could find a different way to have it every day of the year. What other flavor could top that? None.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:57 amSomehow I knew light moosetrack would be number 1. That is my all time favorite and no one makes it quite like Turkey Hill.Creamy, delicious and Light
April 7th, 2009 at 9:53 amI’m voting for the Light Moose Tracks. Nothing wrong with Vanilla, but Moose Tracks has so much going for it – primarily that it is a light ice cream, but also because it’s a nice treat and I just love the clever name!
April 7th, 2009 at 9:51 amIf I could only seve one flavor it would have to be Vanilla Bean.Its like universal where moose tracks would not be for everyone.Please get with the program and know it has to be Vanilla Bean or I,m going to place youMooseTraks folks in detention.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:48 amHave to say that when it comes to ice cream, you need Vanilla Bean so you can go in ANY direction with that bowl. Add to it, put in in something, on something, eat it “bare” – you just don’t have that versatility when you have a combination ice cream – even one as GREAT as Moose Tracks – so VB gets my vote.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:45 amGo Moose Tracks! Vanilla Bean has it’s purpose, but when you go to get an ice cream treat at night, I want something that can stand alone!
April 7th, 2009 at 9:43 amI’d have to agree that Vanilla Bean is the best…..If i were a lucky winner i’d have T.H.hour at work on Fridays.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:37 amMy office loves to celebrate everything you can imagine so this will be no exception.
Love Moose tracks, but have to give the nod to Vanilla Bean. A little goes a long way for satisfaction. Go vanilla.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:36 amI love Moose Tracks, but have to give the nod to Vanilla. A little can go a long way for satisfaction. Good luck vanilla.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:34 amGO!Go! Vanilla Bean!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 9:29 amI just voted for Moose Tracks — not only because it is delicious, but also because it represents a line-up of light flavors that I hope will continue to expand — instead of my waistline! Thanks for giving us more taste and less guilt.
I feel like a traitor to old faithful vanilla though. On a hot day nothing beats a frosty mug of root beer with a BIG scoop of vanilla ice cream. And I love the pairing of HOT fudge with COLD vanilla.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:15 amGot to have Vanilla. Vanilla goes with everything but can stand on its own. What other flavor can say that?!
April 7th, 2009 at 9:08 amJust bought Moose Tracks yesterday, didnt get into it yet because I know when I do, THATS IT. Go Moose Tracks all the way:)
April 7th, 2009 at 9:04 amThe kicker is that Moose Tracks tastes great—and is less filling, too! Nothing against vanilla–it’s one of my faves, too, but the fact that I can include MT as part of my mindful diet kicks it right over the old edge for me. Go Moose!
April 7th, 2009 at 8:56 amA sucker for the underdog, I had to vote for the Light Recipe Moose Tracks. And I do specifically remember that episode of Unwrapped — love it!
Imagine my surprise that my choice currently has a sizeable lead over the opponent (with 142 votes counted)! Maybe this’ll be a more exciting game than the lopsided ‘Heels win last night…
April 7th, 2009 at 8:52 amEveryone loves Vanilla, especially Turkey Hill but MOOSE TRACKS hits the spot with those awesome additional flavors which please the senses. Truly the winner and it is even “Light” which is just an extra bonus to the Turkey Hill experience.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:44 amIt’s a race between the plain and a mixture. Everyone has their own taste. If you like vanilla you can vote for either flavor. If you like to mix it up you can vote for light recipe moose tracks. Are we ready for a new winner this year? Possibly. I favor the vanilla with fudge swirls and peanut butter cups.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:40 amthis is tough, VB is so versatile, but MT…it is light, I can eat MORE, and chocolate & PB….how can you go wrong??
April 7th, 2009 at 8:30 amVanilla is not my first choice of ice cream flavors, but since I can’t eat peanut products, I have no choice but to select it in the final round. I’m disappointed that none of the mint products made it through the tournament!
April 7th, 2009 at 8:17 amI just bought two cartons of TH last night – Dutch Chocolate and Vanilla Bean. I have to go with Vanilla Bean as my favorite. There’s just so much you can do with vanilla to get different tastes, such as, if I want a peanut butter taste I put a couple spoonfuls of peanut butter on it and some chocolate syrup! With pie or cake ala mode I don’t think you can beat plain ‘ole vanilla!!
April 7th, 2009 at 8:11 amGo Moose Tracks!! I’d love to know the story behind that flavor’s creation.
April 7th, 2009 at 7:56 amWhoa! We weren’t sure what to expect when we checked the polls this morning, but we definitely weren’t expecting to see Moose Tracks leading by such a significant margin.
It’s good to see so many Tracks fans rallying around their favorite flavor. But it’s still early, and the polls don’t close until Monday morning. Where are all the Vanilla fans?
April 7th, 2009 at 7:42 amI am glad to see I am not the only one who thinks vanilla is boooring. Vanilla is a good base but requires nuts, chocolate fudge, whipped cream to make it tasty while moose tracks or a fruit or nut flavor stimulates your taste buds
April 7th, 2009 at 7:40 amWhy buy plain ole vanilla and then have to ADD stuff to make it taste better??? Just buy Moose tracks to begin with, no doctoring up necessary–it’s already all in there. And it’s light, to boot. It doesnt’ get any better than that…
April 7th, 2009 at 7:29 amBack to the store for 2 more flavors today! Love my win of 60 1/2 gal. in your recipe contest. Will probably need to win an exercise program next. Loved the Vanilla Bean!!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:23 amThe moose, the moose, the moose is on fire! You just can’t beat Moose Tracks.
April 7th, 2009 at 7:23 amVanilla bean? Is America really that boring?? I vote for the Light Moose Tracks.
April 7th, 2009 at 7:23 ami do like moose tracks but my real favorite is chocolate marashino frozen yogurt. as a diabetic i am able to have a small serving every so often. just love it, thanks!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:21 amLight Moose Tracks! Fun flavor & low fat, too. How can you miss?!?!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:15 amMoose tracks!!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:11 amStill liking vanilla better.
April 7th, 2009 at 7:00 amGo Vanilla bean!!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:58 amVanilla bean is the best! I love the extra vanilla taste!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:57 amGo Moose tracks!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:49 amThis is amazing! A standard against a unique. I like them both but I’m voting for vanilla. Anyone have a brownie?
April 7th, 2009 at 6:21 amWay to go Moose Tracks!!!! You can do it. I can enjoy you and still stick to my diet. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 6:18 amThis Light Recipe Moose Tracks is like the 1983 NC State Wolfpack- it just won’t lose.
I’m voting for vanilla.
April 7th, 2009 at 6:01 amI like Moose Tracks.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:58 amCome on Vanilla , YOU CAN DO IT !!!!!!! TWO IN A ROW !!!!
April 7th, 2009 at 5:22 amMy two favorites fell out after last week.
So, I will have to fall back to tradition and root for good old vanilla bean.
April 6th, 2009 at 6:34 pmGo Vanilla bean
April 6th, 2009 at 6:24 pmGo Vanilla Bean
April 6th, 2009 at 5:27 pmVanilla is only a complement to other flavors, it’s flavorless–boring–boring–boring…..go moose tracks go
April 6th, 2009 at 5:05 pmCome on folks. It’s hot apple pie and vanilla ice cream. An American tradition must live on.
April 6th, 2009 at 4:29 pmGo Moose Tracks!
April 6th, 2009 at 3:29 pmHave to go with the underdog after this amazing run!
April 6th, 2009 at 3:09 pmI love reading this blog; it’s just so much fun. My vote is for Vanilla. There’s a reason it is the number 1 ice cream flavor sold in America.
April 6th, 2009 at 1:23 pmVanilla bean is going down!
