...free pizza?
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.
What happens if I take both?

Maybe it's the factory seconds from Ben & Jerry's. We used to get those for a song at the food co-op when I lived in Brattleboro. They wouldn't even let them be sold unless there was too much of something, either.
Good times.

Who makes the best Maple Creemee
That is indeed an essential question: who makes the best maple creemee in Vermont?
Essential because you cannot come and visit Vermont without trying a maple creemee. It has to be part of the experience!
The creemee is a soft serve ice cream (also seen spelt creamee or creamie) and people agree that a great maple creemee uses real maple syrup rather than flavoring. Many people say “Morse Farm” on County Road, just outside Montpelier has the best maple creemee, and indeed it’s good… It is one of these little pleasures of life, right after supper to go there for a creemee, sit down in one of their Adirondack chairs, watch the valley and the mountains far into the distance… and if you’re interested, visit their shop and their sugarhouse…
I don’t think that all sugarhouses necessary have great maple creemees though. I have had some with little taste (cheap on the syrup I guess) and on the other hand, I have seen little ordinary soft serve ice cream stands have top-class maple creemees (like Simply Subs on Main Street in Barre… I am hoping they continue to use as much maple syrup as they now do… their creemee is really good…).
One thing for sure is that it seems impossible to declare a winner… you’d need to try them all at the same time and I have not heard yet of such a competition… may be I should make the suggestion to the Harpoon Brewery group… to add a maple creemee competition to their BBQ competition next year
In the meantime, here are some tips from maple creemee lovers on the best place to get one!
Maynard’s on rte 100 between Waitsfield and Moretown
Bragg Farm, Route 14 North, East Montpelier
Strafford Organic Dairy farm
Dakin Farm in Ferrisburgh on Route 7
Where is YOUR best place?
Still not better than free pizza.

Huh. I lived in Vermont for like six months and never even heard of it. I guess I was too damned close to New Hampshire.

I always look forward to the maple creamees at the Addison County Fair farm to table building. While you're there, for a nominal fee, you get a 'local' supper. The bonus is sitting around with some of our older farmers and listening to local history as well as their take on what's happening now- another freebie!Who makes the best Maple Creemee

That does sound really cool. Not free pizza cool but almost.
