We Made a Thing!"
Golden Girls marathons just got a whole lot sweeter now that Big Gay Ice Cream has started selling their frosty confections by the pint.
The food truck-born soft serve company packaged up their favorite flavors including the Salty Pimp and Dorothy, reimagining them as hard-pack pints a la other grocery store brands. They'll sell seven flavors in total—including a new flavor called Lunchbox, which is strawberry ice cream with strawberry-filled peanut butter cups and peanut butter—available now through Amazon and Fresh Direct and soon to be filling up the freezer chests of your local bodega.
Proprietors Douglas Quint and Bryan Petroff got their start in town in 2009 in the truck, eventually opening two brick-and-mortar spots in the East and West Villages, a shake shop in Gansevoort Market, and a location in Philadelphia. In the spirit of restaurants and food brands making retro videos to promote themselves, the duo made their own promo vid that shows the pint-making process.
