According to many people writing to Neil Gaiman, Blue Moon ice cream only seems to be available in Wisconsin and the UP (and possibly Cleveland). Is this ture? Having never lived anywhere other than Wisconsin, I wouldn't know. Blue Moon ice cream (while not my favorite) has always just been a part of the ice cream flavor pantheon. I can't really imagine it not being a standard. Can any non-Wisconsinites speak to this?
I'd never seen Blue Moon before I got here (I'm from New England). My guess is that, like cheese curds, it's a pretty local thing. Do you know what the flavor is supposed to be?
On the other hand, no one makes plain coffee ice cream around here. What up with THAT?
Welcome to the webring by the way--that's how I found you.
What the flavor is *supposed* to be be is part of the mystery. However, many people, myself included, think that it tastes like Froot Loops.
I could see that. I only had a bite of it off someone else's cone once--it seemed vaguely apple-y with some other generic froot flavor. Very mysterious.
