Good to know-thanks. There are two different soft-serve places in town and the kids look wistfully at them. If they can have BK soft serve they'll be thrilled!

We do allow the kids to have ice cream from BK - my gluten/egg allergic child is a plain jane, his preference will always be for plain vanilla.  My nut allergic child loves the chocolate sundae. 

BK is a special treat in the house because it repeats on DH and I so bad.  We power through for DS1 every once in a while because it's the one place he can have fries in all of the places we can eat out as a family.

I like frosties but they are hard to consume while driving. I prefer a regular shake but don't always want to go to another place to get one.

I like to let them warm up and sip them through a straw,LOL.  It's been awhile since I indulged my Frosty fetish.  Now that we're talking about them, I might have to give in and get one!

I do the same. But they always melt more around the edges first while the middle is still pretty thick and then I have to manipulate my straw and I hate doing all that while driving.

We do Frosty's all the time.  The mix-in's were never a concern for us because they hand you a little packet with the mixins to do yourself (as opposed to McD's who mixed in for you).

I believe BK has several safe options as well (or the last time we looked they did).  I go ever so often to get a caramel sundae because we apparently live in the only state that doesn't offer caramel as an option at McD's.

Do you trust BK ice creams (other than the shakes) for your pa/tna child? If so are there any you avoid? I think the one here only has m&ms that are clearly unsafe but I don't think they mix them in-just sprinkle them on top.

I don't think we've ever even looked into anything besides the Frosty.  It's so perfect - why mess with it? 

for PA and TNA only. Do you trust them? From what I can see on their website, Oreo is the only mix-in now.
