The folks at Try Vegan Week gave us Portlanders our first taste of Temptation Vegan Ice Cream this weekend at Vegfest. It was sold as a fundraiser for the informational week.
Ridiculously, on my way to the opening events, I crashed my bike and scraped up my right knee pretty badly. I now have some tough wounds and a story.
When I finally got Vegfest, I sat down with this waffle cone and felt better! Sure I was breaking out of the 'healthier' eating I've been doing lately, but for new vegan ice cream being sold for non-profit reasons? Yes, yes, yes.
My waffle cone was filled with cookie dough and mint chocolate chip. I also had some cookie dough and tried new flavors at the actual Vegfest. I only had a bite, but the Fair Trade Coffee was by far my favorite.
I would flat out call Temptation more gelato-like than ice cream, honestly, but it's still delectable and sweet. I really like gelato! It's creamy and icy.
I read on Food Fight!'s blog this morning that the leftover ice cream will be sold at Papa G's soon! Nice.

I so can't wait until that stuff is available in Memphis...if it ever is...ice cream is like the one thing you just can't order online. Damn. But it looks great!
Ahh, I'm sorry that you crashed your bike!! I hope that your wounds heal quickly! In the meantime, enjoy that Temptation ice cream - looks tempting, for sure!
OOO YUM! I would totally break out of healthy eating for that! I mean no. Is this a test? :]
i didn't realize portland hadn't been introduced to temptation! i really dig the cookie dough flavor. unfortunately, after 3+ years of carrying at my work, i went in for a naughty snack and discovered we no longer carry it! i am crushed. guess i'll have to go to portland, too.
You Portlanders are so progressive.
Hope you're all better now--I'm sure the ice cream--in a waffle cone!-- helped with its amazing healing powers.
That does look tempting. I need to try this sometime!!
Hope your knee is healing :-)
It became reference very much!!
Thank you (^o^)/

Where can I buy this ice cream! I have been looking for cookie dough soy ice cream for what feels like an eternity!
Megan - I believe Food Fight! will be selling the pints soonish. However, check out Purely Decadent's Cookie Dough ice cream as well! I think I like it more than Temptation..(with the exception of the one time we bought it and there was only 2 or 3 chunks of cookie dough..)
sorry about your knee!
Hope your knee is feeling better! Ooh, I wonder if I'll get to try Temptation when I'm in town?!
This cannot work in fact, that is what I consider.
Pretty helpful info, lots of thanks for this article.
