As someone who dislikes menthol, I absolutely hate these flavours and cannot fathom how anyone would willingly eat something toothpaste flavoured.

Get an ice cream maker and don't let your dreams be dreams. Making homemade ice cream is ridiculously easy.

> Mint chip is one of my favourite flavours, but the chips kinda ruin it. If they’re the little flakes or shavings, it’s fine, but hard chocolate chips in ice cream (which is frozen) are just not fun. That's the part I love, decent chips. Strauss makes a lighter mint, but it's more expensive. More expensive is good for me though, then there's less of it in the house. Whole foods house brand is pretty good too. But again, you may want to ignore me because I love the chips.

There's a popular brand here in Minnesota called Kemps Ice Cream that makes a "Peppermint Bon Bon" flavor. It's my absolute favorite ice cream of all time. Despite the name, it's the good "creme de menthe" mint, not the strong York peppermint patties kind. And the chocolate is just fine shavings, so they melt in your mouth without any hard or chunky texture in your smooth ice cream. The brand was bought by some ice cream company in Kansas City, but it's still headquartered here in Minnesota, so I believe the brand has spread out across the Midwest a bit. If you're in the region, you should seek it out.

what you want is called stracciatella. it is the proper way of adding chocolate to ice cream. you basically drizzle it in while churning, get really good beads of chocolate. if i ever get a working ice cream maker again, i'll let you know.
