Well, I knew this crazy hobby would eventually pay off. My wife, son & I are always fighting over who has the best soft serve ice cream. Well tonight I had enough & set up an A/B test. I like "The Water Ice Factory" my wife & son like "Anthony's Water Ice". We started off at the WIF & we each had a small vanilla. Damn good, nice & sweet with a smooth texture. Then we mozied on down to Anthony's & had the same...a small vanilla. The verdict is now in..."The Water Ice Factory" won by a nose. And there is no contest between waer ice either, the WIF is the best by far. The owner used to be a plumber, go figure. Kinda like copper vs. silver IC's. These A/B tests can be a lot of fun after all!!!:D

    I'm trying to lose weight and that just doesn't fit the budget.....unless I don't eat for a few days prior.

    I'm sure some **** is gonna come along and comment on the scientific validity of your supposed "A/B test." This **** is gonna say that in order for it to be valid, you should have conducted a double blind test with taste samples from both companies that are consumed one after the other. Of course, a statistically significant sample size would need to be computed and the results published in a peer-reviewed journal in order to be accepted by your colleagues.

    These are a few points an **** would raise...

    Awww man......ice cream is my life.Eat it every day,big bowl too.Who has the best???Can't really say,mainly because I like to try new places all the time.Here in Chicago,soft serve is limited to a few vendors and none are better than some good old fashioned home made stuff.Cold Stone and a local fav,Oberwise,are my normal stops when not hitting the Ben and Jerry's at home.I do have a Dairy Queen 3 blocks away and is my normal stop with the dogs and grandson.And Yes,the dogs get a small one too.Cheers.
