If you've ever wished you could enjoy your favorite Thanksgiving foods in a whole new way, Salt & Straw has you covered. While not the usual take on everyone's favorite fall dishes, the new Thanksgiving-themed ice creams are certainly festive.
For several years, the Oregon-based ice cream shop Salt & Straw has been churning out pints of seasonal ice creams that taste like different Thanksgiving foods. This year, the Seasonal Pints Pack features ice cream in five deliciously festive flavors: Salted Caramel Thanksgiving Turkey, Sweet Potato Casserole with Maple Pecans, Roasted Peach & Sage Cornbread Stuffing, Roasted Cranberry Sauce Sorbet, and finally, Spiced Goat Cheese & Pumpkin Pie. Just as the names suggest, each pint is meant to evoke the flavor of a beloved Thanksgiving dish.
This year, Salt & Straw is making the promotion even sweeter by donating a pint for every pint purchased.
