mint chocolate chip represent

agreed. but i've always called it chocolate chip mint. i've wondered once or twice if there was a difference between the two names as individual stores differ on their titling of this most illustrious of frozen cremes. i also wonder if there are any regional preferences, as is true for "soda" vs "pop" (some places in the US call all soda Cokes, as in "hey get me a Coke from the fridge?", what kind you want? "umm, you got diet sprite?") i was born/raised in NJ. where are you from skylar?

while my google search for "difference between" was fruitless, i instead chose a more base analytic approach. i googled each iteration separately and tallied just the approxiamate number of link returns. here are my results:

Search Term
mint chocolate chip ice cream: 739,000 returns in .41 seconds

chocolate chip mint ice cream: 1,730,000 returns in .47 seconds


Eastern PA, about an hour north of Philadelphia. I've always called it Mint Chocolate Chip, as has pretty much everyone else that I've ever heard talk about it, but it certainly could be regional.

I always assumed it was because there is also regular/vanilla chocolate chip ice cream, so you say the mint first here to differentiate.

Now lets argue the differences between Caramel DeLites vs. Samoas and Peanut Butter Patties vs. Tagalongs.

Or Dunkin Donuts Kreme donuts vs. Dunkin Donuts Manager's Special.

Or Checkers vs. Rallys.

Really? I thought they were pretty much the same. I think I always liked Hardees better though!

I do believe there are some differences. And you'll never see a Hardess with a Green Burrito in it (I wish!).

I'm a Carl's Jr. man myself.
