Everyone boasts about knowing the best pizza or the best tacos in Los Angeles, but no one ever has the same address. As far as ice cream is concerned, McConnell’s Fine Ice Creams makes everyone see eye to eye. Launched in 1949, this family brand understood the happy-cows-frolicking-in-organic-pasture trends way before everyone else. Their philosophy is so good you’ll want to lick the pint: read it again and again here. The packaging might be old-school, but the flavors are quite in tune: extra-virgin olive oil and roasted almonds, Oaxacan chocolate (with Sri Lanka cinnamon, chili and brandy) Double peanut butter chip… See? You’re already convinced.
