The Core Is a Myth

I’m a fan of life hacks, those nifty little tricks that make you better at life. Like did you know that you were eating apples wrong your whole life? You probably take an apple, bite into the side of it, and work your way around until all you have left is the apple core. But that’s the wrong way to do it because the core is a myth. There is no core. Only seeds. And you can spit those out. You can eat the entire apple, save for the stem. Seriously. Watch the video below if you don’t believe me. Try it for yourself to verify. The core is a myth. You’ll never look at an apple the same way again.

Ben & Jerry’s That’s My Jam Core

Ben & Jerry’s recently released their line of Core ice creams, which are ice creams with an inner core of fudge, caramel, or jam. This way you always get the perfect spoonful of ice cream. That’s My Jam is chocolate and raspberry ice creams with fudge chips and a raspberry jam core. It tastes even better than it sounds. The chocolate ice cream is rich and creamy. The raspberry ice cream is sweet and smooth. The fudge chips give it a little texture and gives you an extra chocolatey kick in the mouth. The jam is soft, sticky, slightly sour, and it spreads easily to get the perfect swirl on your spoon. I generally prefer fruit flavors over chocolate, but this is a perfect medley of the two. This is a great ice cream and an amazing treat. Ben & Jerry’s Core lineup is the greatest innovation in ice cream technology since the invention of Dippin’ Dots.

Ben & Jerry’s Hazed & Confused Core

Ben & Jerry’s recently released new ice cream flavors that they dubbed Cores. They are called Cores because they have a core of fudge, caramel, or jam. It’s pretty brilliant idea, now you can have a perfect spoonful of ice cream every time. I bought a pint of Hazed & Confused Core as soon as I discovered them at the store. Hazed & Confused is chocolate and hazelnut ice creams with fudge chips and a hazelnut fudge core. The chocolate ice cream is smooth and rich, the hazelnut ice cream is creamy and nutty, the fudge chips add a little bit of crunch and texture, but the hazelnut fudge core steals the show. It’s basically a column of Nutella right smack in the middle of your pint. It’s beyond delicious. It’s indescribable how amazing this ice cream is. You have to try it. Like right now. Stop reading about Ben & Jerry’s Hazed & Confused Core and go buy a pint for yourself. You shan’t regret it.
