Do you know what this is called?

Sep 16, 2012 11:25 PM

I was talking to my sister about favorite foods from childhood, and we both thought of the same dessert, but we can't remember what it is called. This topic has come up before, and it is very frustrating that I still can't remember.

It is a sort of ice cream cake except its not made up of layers of cake and ice cream, but it is a cake made up of ice cream (if that makes sense). As I recall (it has been more than 10-15 years), the cake consisted of layers of ice cream with thin layers of chocolate between (like the hardened chocolate topping you can buy for sundaes). If I remember correctly, my family use to buy them from Kroger for birthday celebrations. I think they came in rectangular boxes in the freezer aisle. Unfortunately, they stopped selling it after awhile, and I have been unable to find it anywhere since.

That's it! Aw, just as I get my hopes up, I find out it really isn't available in the USA anymore. I'm disappointed. :(

It was back for a short time a couple of years ago. I bought a bunch then. I wish it'd come back again.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
