    You can pick up pints by just walking in to the freezer. If you have 3 or more people, a great way to avoid the long wait.

    thanks so much for the advice to try the Sam's Sundae! I might not have experienced the delight otherwise! (though I still love the almond joy)

    The Earl Grey flavor (as of Jul 23, 2010) is not around, BUT it will be brought back because of demand, except no one knows when. Bi-Rite has limited storage so they have to make the ones that always
