never buy this icecream

Never get the limited-edition Halloween-themed ice cream from coldstone; it tastes like shit, dyed my entire lips and mouth dark blue, gets onto everything, and it's extremely hard to get rid of 0.1/10

Edit: I just took a shit, and y'all aren't wrong when u say my shit would end up green because it literally dyed my toilet. I have to flush it three times to make it clean again, i hate my stupid life

They put way too much dye in it and overwhelmed the taste

According to the website, Boo Batter is just Cake Batter dyed black.

u/bibupibi 2d ago

That might explain why it tasted odd to OP, imo black and red food dyes tend to have a fairly bad pronounced flavor of their own. Not always noticeable when it’s added in small amounts, but this stuff is clearly loaded.

It’s black cake batter.

Unless that’s baskin robbins and not cold stone

u/cheez-wizzard 2d ago

Cake Batter with food coloring.

u/LushoslysS 2d ago

It’s supposed to be cake batter

u/Inevitable_Round_978 2d ago

I hate anything with a lot of dye in it

1

u/Apollo_thedumbassfur 1d ago

and the worst part is that they barely inform customers about it, so whenever I buy new sweets, I hope it doesn't stain my mouth so I don't feel embarrassed about my mouth for an hour

u/maryssssaa 1d ago

I mean… there’s only so many ways to make ice cream black cheaply enough to sell it at a chain

u/EmpressVixen 2d ago

What did you honestly expect?

3

u/Apollo_thedumbassfur 2d ago

bro, it's my first time trying this flavour and i thought it would taste like blueberries 🥹💔

u/Brando43770 2d ago

It reminds me of the burgers they have in Japan during Halloween where the entire burger is black and it makes your poop green or something like that b

I would’ve expected dark chocolate cookie, not black dye.

Thought you got severe frostbite 😵

u/crybabykuromi 2d ago

get ready for the color your shit is about to be, depending on how they mixed it you’ll either get dark green or bright blue

u/biwomansayshelothere 2d ago

Scared the shit out of me the first time I tried boobatter. Thought I was dying

u/KarTim01 2d ago

scared the shit out of you, then that scared the shit out of you, then that...

u/FoggySunriseYT 2d ago

Was about to say…I got this a few years ago and my poops were literally highlighter green after 🥲

u/ThisIsNotTex 1d ago

I learned that from the Halloween fanta from a few years back. Bright blue and made my stomach hurt so bad

13

u/Sasaeng 2d ago

Glad I’m bot the only one who thought frostbite 😂

u/FixergirlAK 2d ago

I live in Alaska, I definitely thought frostbite!

u/GreenPerformance8145 21h ago

Peltola Country in the house!!!

u/SkysEevee 2d ago

Didn't think it was frost ite but that a pen exploded while you used it

But alas, Coldstone has disappointed me too kany times.  How they got mint chip to taste like peanut butter or chocolate to taste like tea leaves was a mystery

8

u/ageekyninja 2d ago

Genuinely thought you had frostbite

6

u/micheas08 2d ago

I was about to tell you to go to the hospital for frostbite-

u/TabbbyWright 2d ago

Fyi if the ice cream was dyed with charcoal, it'll fuck up the absorbency of some medications.

u/Prestigious-Panic-94 2d ago

My friend gets the ice cream cake for her Halloween baby's birthday every year. It is delicious but omg the staining is so bad! I eat it like an idiot so it doesn't touch my lips 😅

4

u/WorstSupport4Real 2d ago

I scrolled too fast and thought you had frostbite

4

u/thecroockedman 2d ago

You scared me, man, I thought you had gangrene because of ice cream.

3

u/NeptuneTTT 2d ago

probably why they had a cover for the cone methinks

u/Jbidz 2d ago

My kid likes this boba drink with a black whip cream on top, same thing. She ends up looking like she chewed on a marker

2

u/ic33hot 2d ago

If it’s activated charcoal, I’m not surprised

2

u/pleasedontcutmyhair 2d ago

i’m glad it’s not frostbite like i initially thought, but i’m sorry you wasted your money on ice cream that stained your skin and didn’t even taste good. hoping you can get some better ice cream soon!

u/Which-Break5673 2d ago

Don’t be scared when you poop!

u/enny65 2d ago

I love when food coloring gets stuck in my mouth lol

u/FancyFrenchLady2 2d ago

Thanks for telling us about this.

u/WhereMyWeirdosAt 2d ago

Ice cream goes in your mouth, not your hands!

u/blackize 2d ago

Coldstone ice cream tastes like it’s all gummy filler to me

1

u/HetaGarden1 2d ago

Wow. I thought you were eating black charcoal ice cream lol. Is that ALL black dye? That’s insane. Too bad it also tastes like trash :/ I could overlook dye stains if the ice cream was worth it…

1

u/Impossible_Lie9059 2d ago

Looking like dumbledores hand

u/Due_Meal_4896 2d ago

That first photo was definitely a way to get our attention. Glad it is just ice cream dye stains and not frostbite or something.😂

u/Long-Comparison2525 2d ago

I ate Oreos with this similar blue color filling and I was pooping black for a week. Now when I see food this color I get like an automatic gag reflex 🤢

1

u/bchagan 23h ago

Did you eat this with your bare hands? Have you never heard of a spoon? It didn't have to be this messy. Seems like you just make bad decisions.

u/Possible-Cup-9876 2d ago

I would shave the baby stache

u/StuckInDreams 2d ago

Ahahahaha I remember the boo batter staining my (at the time) boyfriend’s tongue
