I got a mangonada today and it was literally the worst smoothie I had ever tasted.

It was just like a normal mango smoothie, except they had poured straight chamoy in the bottom, and it was like swallowing warm, rancid ketchup. There were distinct notes of vinegar and tomato and did I mention it was warm.

I cannot imagine that Mexican folks tasted that and said to themselves, boy I need some more. It was gross. I ended up drinking just the parts that had no chamoy and throwing away the rest.

I know it probably feels like I’m being obtuse when you come in and ask for a small and then I respond with “Ok, how many and what kind of scoops?” But you need to understand that people come in and ask me for a small then get a double or more with regular scoops. I don’t know what you mean when you say small because we don’t serve a small ice cream.

For the last 3 times I got ice cream at Baskin Robbins, it's been super soft like whipped cream. So I have to freeze it for like 5 hours before it finally is cold and harder like real ice cream. And even so it gets soft again in like 5mins. Did they switch ingredients or smth?
