Had a bowl of vanilla ice cream with balsamic vinegar. Pretty good. On another forum, there was a thread about elite level vinegar, and also branched into the sub elite, but still spendy. I had never had the good stuff. The cheap balsamic was fine for salads or whatever, but that thread got me curious. I was especially intrigued about having it on ice cream. I picked up a bottle of wegmans brand. It was pretty cheap for a proper balsamic($14), but I figured it would give me an idea of what it was about.
I was at aldi today looking at the ice cream so I could try my vinegar. On one side there was coffee, which is one of my absolute favorite flavors, and on the other side vanilla. Debating back and forth...
"Hey dumbass, you don't even get ice cream much. Get the vanilla so you can try your vinegar"
"Yea, but look, coffee!"
"Coffee's great, but that's *not* why you're here"
"Hmm..."
"Fine, whatever. Even if the vinegar sucks, vanilla's acceptable I guess"
Recommended, but I don't think it's better than coffee, especially if the coffee has chocolate covered espresso beans in it(aldi's didn't) :^D
