I'm in for whatever day, Monday is fine. Going with the Lucerne mint chocolate chip. Goal is at least a box of 12, but I'll get 2 boxes and see how far I can get. I like the idea of maybe mixing in 1 or 2 of those Mrs Fields' for variety too. Those things are delicious, but very rich and filling imo compared to a regular ICS.

I weighed them out. 2 oz each. 30 is only 3.75 pounds. That might be doable. 40 would be 5 pounds which is way too much.

For reference 3.75 pounds = 100 McNuggents.

The hard part might be time if this is still a timed event. I timed myself eating one at a moderate pace and it took 1:15. That's only 48 at that pace. So you basically can't take any breaks to hit even 30.

I'm sure I can hit 24....after that I'm not sure but I'll set a goal of 30.

That's just a **** ton of ice cream. I must say I'm looking forward to this. Wish it was next week, not the following.

Esad,

If they're melted a bit you can down them in like 5 seconds!

Based on the weight thing I'm already reconsidering my 20 goal. 2.5lbs of ICS sounds absurd.

Edit: good Christ I ate 1.8lbs of McNuggets wtf

the pro move is to throw them in a blender for a dank milkshake and easier consumption

First ICS in over a year. The gas station selection was very limited. Was a little surprised over the amount of calories they managed to fit in this tiny thing.

Bad timing for binging, might do a 6 pack of blue bunny rocky road tho.

Not giant at all!

ICS eaters,

Some more research, this time whole foods:

Lot of new options here. Three twins is one of the best local ice cream makers here. Really delicious ice cream. $1.99/sandwich though, whoa. Still gonna have to get one or two. 190 cals each.

Julie's are ok and would have been nice because they are a little less sweet. But 190 cals so not worth it.

160 cals for the whole foods brand.

110 for the mini Julie's.

Then this other one Alden's I've never heard of looks interesting. 170 cals. Apparently made by the same company as Julie's. Will consider.

Also a bunch of non-dairy soy, almond, etc ice cream sandwiches.

nothing says good old fashion american eating contest like organic non gmo almond milk ice cream sandwiches from whole foods

eating in bulk cost should be a major factor, how much is a mcflurry? we could do the entire mcdonalds menu.

I see reality starting to hit around #8 and THE WALL hitting around #10, but I'm pulling that out of my ass. Water will be an issue too. No real vehicle for it.

Going to try the Nice brand too thanks.

I don't think coconut milk ice cream and soy ICS are on the same level.

I'm sure coconut milk ice cream can be delicious; I'm not a vegan or a genetically deficient lactard tho, so no reason not to eat the real thing.

If anyone is interested in a value play I found a Kroger 24 pack today for $4.99. Haven't ever tried one of theirs but you can't beat that value! Less than $0.21 each. They look a bit like the Market Pantry/Target ones.
