Good Or Gross-A Test Taste Of S’Mores Flavored Ramen

Author Dub

Yes, S’Mores Flavored Ramen is a thing. We talked about it in Trending News With The Krew a few weeks ago. In the story, Cody and I read that it would be available at Walmart. Well, I was at the Walmart in Grovetown recently, and there it was! So of course, you know I had to do a taste test and see what this stuff actually tasted like.

Would It Be Gross Or Would It Be Good?

That was the question I kept wondering to myself. It’s such a weird combination. I mean come on, S’Mores Flavored Ramen?! There’s no way that’s going to actually be good right?! Well, maybe it’s so crazy that it might actually be good. I’m a fan of Ramen on its own, and I love S’mores. The plan was to remain optimistic, and not jump to conclusions before I even tried it.

When I pulled the cover back on the S’Mores Flavored Ramen, I was a little surprised by what I saw. Here’s what it looked like.

Yes, that’s Ramen with chocolate powder and mini marshmallows in it. Honestly, something I never thought I’d see. And honestly, something I never thought I’d eat, but here we are. You make it the same as you do with any Ramen or Cup Noodles. Just add water and microwave for three minutes. Of course, you’ll want to stir it up a little more before you eat it.

Ranking 3 New Ben And Jerry's Ice Cream Flavors

Ben and Jerry’s new flavors couldn’t be more different from each other. The popular New England based ice cream brand has added three options to their creative family so far this year, and here I will rank them all.

Coincidentally, I tried each of these in one sitting. This was an unplanned taste test. With a house full of young kids, a visiting friend recently stopped by and knew the way to quickly win over the youngsters. Pints of ice cream.

Before I get into explaining which was best, I should note I am not an ice cream (or dessert) enthusiast by any means. Dare I say, I hardly seek out ice cream, even in the summer months. However, if it is put in front of me, I will eat it if it’s one of my favorite varieties.

If I’m going for ice cream, though, Ben and Jerry’s is easily my brand of choice. Being a New Englander, I have toured their Vermont location a handful of times. Their half-baked in a cone is my go-to choice.

If you are not familiar, these are the Ben and Jerry’s new flavors that have rolled out in 2024. Impretzively Fudged, PB S’More, and Marshmallow Sky. Now, it’s important to note that Marshmallow Sky is new just to pints. Meaning, it was available in their scoop shops only.

Another flavor entitled Strawberry Cheezecake was also unveiled earlier this year. This did not qualify here as a new flavor ranking because it had been an ice cream flavor (branded “cheesecake). The new “cheeze” version is a vegan dairy-free dessert.

Upon seeing these at my house, I realized they were new. So, instead of selecting one pint to scoop, I took one for the team and realized I needed one proper scoop of each.

My process was to try one at a time and not have all three in the same bowl. Blending flavors might compromise the intended taste.

As a result, there was a flavor where one bite was enough. Another where I couldn’t get enough, and the third was somewhere in between.

Here is my official ice cream ranking of Ben and Jerry’s new flavors.

  • #3 Impretzively Fudged

    It’s chocolate ice cream with fudge covered pretzel pieces and pretzel swirl. The problem here is that I do not like chocolate covered pretzels. Oddly enough, I love pretzels alone. Dip them in sugar and ice cream and it either compromises the flavor or classifies as “too much.” So, this was my least favorite.

  • #2 PB S'More

    Here we have toasted marshmallow ice cream with peanut butter cups, graham cracker pieces, and marshmallow swirl. The graham crackers are the star of this show. They pair better with the ice cream and chocolate than the typical marshmallow of a S’More. This was certainly a tasty delight, but I feel if the marshmallow swirl did not need to be invited to the party.

  • #1 Marshmallow Sky

    Admittedly, I was a little cautious about the blue ice cream color thinking it could suffer from cotton candy syndrome (where too much equals upset stomach city). That is not the case here. It’s marshmallow ice cream with swirls, and then chocolate chip cookie dough and chocolate chocolate chip cookie dough. The latter of the cookie dough bites just brings this to another level. Some sweets get forced together and some just belong together and make each other better. That’s the case here. It’s no wonder Ben and Jerry’s decided to promote this flavor. It tastes as cheerful as it looks.
