Red Bean Ice Cream vs Green Tea Ice Cream?

Red Bean Ice Cream vs Green Tea Ice Cream?
Asian buffets and Asian restaurants usually have these two choices: red bean and green tea ice cream. A lot of people choose green tea, but not me! I love red bean ice cream; I wish I knew who invented it because I would kiss them! Like watermelon, I think I could eat a bucketful of red bean ice cream and still want more. It's one of those foods that no matter how much I eat, I will never be satisfied. However, a lot of people think that green tea ice cream tastes better than red bean ice cream.

If you had to choose, would you pick
red bean ice cream

Red bean ice cream is usually just a vanilla ice cream base with added beans in it

Green tea for me!

i love green tea ice cream. i've had red bean desserts and red bean popsicles, but i've never had red bean ice cream. when presented with the choice, i've always opted for green tea.

They're both sooo good. A lot of Asian restaurants I've been to also serve ginger ice cream too (equally delicious).

Oh, red bean ice cream sounds wonderful, but at a nearby Thai restaurant they sell heavenly coconut ice cream. It's so creamy and sweet and it has crunchy coconut flakes in.
Mmm.... Some days I want to go to that wonderful place just for the ice cream...

Red bean baos are the best. Black bean can be too. I've never had green tea ice cream so who knows...

Tough choice! I love them both. I'd have to say red bean, though...because I love it, I love it, I love it, and you can get green tea Pocky and be just as happy. I'm waiting for some red bean Pocky...
