THE ULTIMATE FLAVOR TOURNAMENT (ROUND 5): THE FINAL TWO!

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! ”

    Turkey and Moose go together like two peas in a pod. I can taste those delicious tracks now, mmmmmmmm.

  2. Robert Ritzer says:

    First 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.

  3. Liz Leaman says:

    What can I say Moose Tracks Light-SIMPLY THE BESTco

  4. Rebecca King says:

    Love the vanilla (it is my daughter’s favorite) but this is the year of the moose.

  5. Regina says:

    Looks like Moose Tracks is pulling away in the race…..actually, I think it’s calling me to the freezer too.

  6. Doris says:

    Vanilla was the first ice cream flavor I tasted as a child, the first is always the best.

  7. Teresa Steuer says:

    This 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!

  8. Kristen Hendricks says:

    I 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.

  9. Ruth Thompson says:

    Anything with peanut butter cups deserves to win!

  10. vicky f says:

    Since light moose tracks is so far ahead of vanilla bean, I’m going have to go out and buy some to try it.

  11. Denise says:

    I am so confident Moose Tracks will win this year!

  12. Mike Castellano says:

    Vanilla is good, but one does need a hint of flavor! My vote…. Moose Tracks

  13. Susan Barger says:

    My 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…

  14. Trevor Bensel says:

    Moose 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!

  15. Mary says:

    I voted for Vanilla because my “very vanilla” husband loves it and there are so many things you can do with it.

  16. Alaina says:

    LIGHT MOOOOOOOSE TRACKS!!! This is what all other ice creams should aspire to be! Thank you, Turkey Hill, for this gift to the world!

  17. Larry Lott says:

    The wrong Moose Tracks ice cream is in the finals… so, Vanilla it is.

  18. Larry Lott says:

    The wrong version of Moose Tracks made the final…. so, Vanilla it is!

  19. Michael says:

    Vanilla will always be king no matter the votes

  20. Clarke says:

    Well….everyone should know if you can make vanilla the best you can make anything with vanilla even better, so Moose Tracks it is….

  21. Pam S says:

    The 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

  22. Bonnie S says:

    Light Moose Tracks

  23. Jackie Donovan says:

    My 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!

  24. Ann Reynolds says:

    Vanilla is soothing when you just need something smooooooth

  25. Judith A says:

    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.
