Dont get that brand around here but it sounds good. I made ice cream yesterday for kids and grandkids for our fathers day get together. Home made is always the best. Here's a pic of my grandkids, they thought the ice cream maker was going to be loud.
Been getting their cheese around here for a while now. Finally found some mudslide ice cream yesterday and had my first bowl a few minutes ago. Sure hope we keep getting it! Dammit man...
We can get Tillamook butter and cheese but I’ve never seen their ice cream. How does it compare to Haggen Daz? Can’t imagine it would beat it. I’ve never found anything better, or that even comes close, but I’ll give it a shot if I can find it somewhere. . .
Now take a cup of coffee and drop a scoop of that on top tomorrow morning. Tell me if that don't beat what comes out of the machines at sheets. And if any troll comes on here and says that's gay, so help me,.....
Good movie to watch while pouring a cup. Put a scoop of that on there while your at it.
Their 2 year aged sharp white cheddar is even better. They have it at costco around here.
I like their ice cream but some flavors have a weird taste and their chocolate tastes bitter to me. I like their hazel nut carmel one. Reeds dairy ice cream from idaho falls is significantly better but $8 a half gallon. As far as typical store brands go though Tillamook is near the top. Another oregon brand called umpqua or something like that is good too.
We had a condo near Newport at Otter rock and everytime we spent a week there we'd take a day and make the trip to Tillamook. The kids would make about 3 passes through the cheese sample line and then I'd buy them ice cream.
Not sure if they still make it any more, but they used to make a Strawberry Cheesecake that was reputed to have 18% milkfat. It was like having a drug you have no defense against. And they used Oregon Strawberries, which IMO are the best there are anywhere... But I can eat about anything they make, including most of their cheese without complaint.....
There cheeses are out of this world, I'd sure try their ice cream too, but it's not around here. I suppose the support all manner of left wing BS, I wonder when they'll out themselves and I'm back to Edys and Kraft or something? Why can't companies just SELL stuff anymore?

Why left wing? I don't know, maybe you're right? It's the Tillamook County Creamery Association. Yes, it's a company. Are dairy farmers generally leftists though? Is Tillamook County Oregon, Tillamook and Boardman, towns in Oregon, leftist hotspots? I'll help a bit, no they're hicks and rednecks.

They do have a racial justice note posted by their CEO. .
Butter, awesome yogurt and sour cream too. Just food for thought.
I'm just tired of supporting overtly liberal corporate CEOs with a social justice axe to grind. I'd prefer to deal with a company that is conservative, or neutral, or at least keeps their self-righteous damn opinions to themselves and just takes my money. I do understand, in Amerika, in 2020, that's often asking way too much...
This is on Tillamook Creamery's web site. From their CEO: LINK
The past few weeks have saddened me deeply. The senseless deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and too many others have brought needed focus to the fact that systemic and structural racism exists, and it has to end.
We chose to be silent yesterday on our social channels in the spirit of getting out of the way of those who should be heard and we will continue to be silent until June 7th. As the leader of Tillamook, I have reflected on how our company can put the eradication of racism more central in our daily thoughts, words and actions. If you’d like to learn more about some of the ways we’re moving forward at Tillamook, I invite you to review this note that I shared with all of our team members this past Monday morning.
We are doubling down on our commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace where employees feel their voices are heard and that they matter to us. And we will keep prioritizing our work on raising our collective awareness through educating, acknowledging and speaking up when we see words or actions that are inconsistent with fostering an inclusive culture. We will also support the work done by organizations that are on the front lines of standing against racism and supporting change.
We speak publicly today to join the growing chorus of voices calling for an end to pervasive and systemic racism and because I feel that by expressing ourselves publicly we commit ourselves to greater accountability for playing a role in helping to bring about needed change in our society. We don’t pretend to have any special wisdom in these matters, but racism so profoundly violates our values and the core tenets of our culture at Tillamook that we will continue to learn and take action.
We must all do much more to root out racism, intolerance and injustice in our society. It is my hope that these tragic deaths will serve as a catalyst to accelerate the critical work we all know must get done. Racism must end and we at Tillamook will do our part.
Patrick Criteser, president & CEO of Tillamook County Creamery Association

Someone mentioned Umpqua Ice cream, also made in Oregon. It's another good one, similar to Tillamook but priced a little lower and also with no high fructose corn syrup. It's readily available here but I don't think it's nearly as widespread as Tillamook.
They donated to the OSU food Sci department in 2018, dairy products research facility.
Ohh chit, 4 million to the Covid relief! Yikes.
Some others like food banks, oh and those little heathens at 4H. (joking)
"In 2018, the Tillamook County Creamery Association earned a national Outstanding Community Impact Award. It’s donations to the Oregon Food Bank included funds, food, a delivery truck, and funding for research aimed to end hunger."
We chose to be silent yesterday on our social channels in the spirit of getting out of the way of those who should be heard and we will continue to be silent until June 7th.
Translation:
"We're staying out of this until we can figure out a way to simultaneously make money out of the opportunity while avoiding stepping on our collective dicks by saying the wrong thing."
You could just as easily say, "Fuggers can't even sell ice cream without getting political about it." Every time I turn on the tv, I gotta endure a bunch of scolding by virtue-signaling SOBs over my alleged racism before I can watch my squirrel-launching videos . I'm sick and fugging tired of it. All they're doing is playing CYA for the masses.
Systemic racism? Really? If it was so systemic, why or how was Obummer elected?
And how many here would vote for, say, Allen West, or thing Clarence Thomas is a super Supremo? Even Condi Rice, although sometimes I suspect she's a RINO?
That all said, Tillamook and Umpqua dairies are staples in the Pacific Northwest. Great stuff.
I used to produce ice cream for an old dairy plant In West Virginia. Did everything from commercial plumbing, repair and maintenance of the machines, come up with new flavors, special mixes and sell directly to the public.
What made our operations unique were that our ice cream was Classified premium and Super premium. That is based primarily on the fat content. For instance, Bryers is considered Premium. Ben and Jerry, Hagen Daz is classified as an Ultra Premium I've cream due to the higher milk fat ( more cream) content alone. Those were the industry standards.
Within those categories are varying quality factors. Most all, including the ones mentioned have cheap high Mercury content high fructose corn syrup mixed with the sugar. That Mercury hort circuits the brain.. The high fructose corn syrup also causes type 2 &3 diabetes... Especially easy when deficient in certain minerals. We only used pure sugar in ours. Simple ingredients. Nothing that you can't pronounce. Nothing that you wouldn't feed your child. Super delicious!!!
Hold on. Are you still with me? We produced more flavors than Baskin Robbins! They were the famous ice cream shop that had super expensive, tasty ice cream known for 36 flavors. Corn syrup ice cream unfortunately.
It changed depending on our work load and imagination, but we were consistently running over 50-55 flavors of fresh high cream content all natural LOCAL fresh milk ice cream that everyone loved.
One more, we were Non- profit so I was selling it at, get this $5 for a 5 QUART PAIL!!! Oooh yeah!!! Best ice cream, and cheap! Any more you're paying that much for a pint of lesser quality.
One more thing that made ours best. Yes I'm biased and yes lots of Mighty Mountaineers cried the day the plant was shut down.
We used local dairies of smaller family farms, like our own, that allowed cows to walk outside on pasture, graze on grass, chew cud and enjoy life. That makes for THE BEST QUALITY milk by far.... and many hunters and their families wailed and cried when it ended. So sad, yet good memories.
Umpqua ice cream kicks Tillamook 's ass. Tillamook makes good cheese, but they lack flavor in the ice cream area. I almost feel sorry for those who havent tried Umpqua ice cream!!!

I will not argue one way or another until I have conducted ample new research, however, the grandfolks, with a dairy farming history, always had Umpqua....
