They’e one of those food chains that’s been owned by various hedge funds, investment groups and what have for the last couple of decades. Most of their franchises have closed. Those that remain are often pretty sketchy. They mostly seem to be operating based on selling the branded cakes in supermarkets these days.

Based on the mariachi band playing behind them, it looks like an ultra-americanized tex-mex sort of place.

I dunno if this is some inside joke and don’t really care, I’m just impressed and pleased that this thing from my childhood is still around.

Is this one of those old people foods no one eats any more, like Cracker Jacks or pagers? Never heard of this thing

I love fudgie. The best part about it is the layer of cookie crunch. I didn’t know Carvel was still around. Where I live now, there is no fudgie and there is no Carvel and that makes me sad.

It’s not that Carvel actually makes good ice cream (they don’t), it’s just all those memories of endless summer evenings walking to the local Carvel from my home when I was a kid.

I wholeheartedly agree. Cookiepuss still kind of freaks me out though.

I was asking as the other person had said ‘you’ and I was wondering who he or she meant. I’ve not seen hate for the guy.

I got a tour of one of those as a Cub Scout. Sort of the perfect field trip for 12 year olds.

I was surprised not to see moose and squirrel. It felt somewhat like spotting a unicorn.

At 14 I worked at an ice cream parlor that used to be a carvel. Still had all the equipment and specialty molds. But you were free to make black cherry fudgie the whale with triple crunchies.
