Flavors...

Folks? Why are different and experimental flavors a bad thing? Why are they a sign of a moral failing?

I like them. I encourage them.

I think that our recent move towards shrinking the batch size is a good thing, but I think that creativity in frozen dessert making is good.

it's my understanding that for some of the oddball flavors the people responsible actually BRING all or most of the ingredients, so it's not like they are leeching supplies off anyone else - in fact, more for everybody. yes, they're consuming some liquid nitrogen, but i also recall that some years there was more than a surplus of that too. i also know that some folx had surplus of their basics and donated them one year.

and i agree, the simplest way to get what you want, is to take ownership of it. want a gallon of flavor foo? make it happen. want to make sure you get some? i'm sure as the maker one could reserve a yogurt container full. don't forget to label it.

Correct. Many of the folks making the truly weird flavors make a base for these flavors in their own kitchens and bring it along. So its not a drain on the resources. I actually make the base for all my flavors at home and bring it in frozen bags. Sometimes, I do need to add the dairy product when I get on site. But usually its less than 2 cups. This gives me more time to socialize.
