meatboy Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 the last couple of months i fancied a change from swensens,the wife usually buys 3 tubs diff.flavours. so i tried dairy queen and found it ok.so the wife went back and asked for 3 take home tubs only to be told not once but three times it will melt quickly before you get home.they had no foil bags or ice,but the wife has always got a foil bag with her.the one inside tesco on mittrapap rd.the girl kept telling its melts too quick,and yesterday the girl in the mall kept telling her the same. so lets see if we can get a reply from dairy queen as to why your staff are more or less telling punters not to buy their large tubs of ice cream because it will melt before you get home, when it cleary says on them TAKE HOME in big white letters on a blue background.

Popular Post NeverSure Posted November 5, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2014 The world is beset with big problems. Very big problems. Now add take-home Dairy Queen and I think I'll have a breakdown. I just can't take it any more. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ExPratt Posted November 5, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2014 Just tell them you want to eat it in the shop and then run out the door with it . Or are you too much of a Mister Softee to do that ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I know meatboy from the Forum, so I can say this. He does have a thick accent. Maybe the girls are translating that he wants to take one of them home ... and she doesn't want to be on ice! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namdocmai Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 No idea why they wrote "Take Home" on them but probably they don't want customers to take it home because it melts and after being frozen again will become hard icecream instead of fluffy soft ? That might ruin their good name. Personell in such shops is not allowed to think themselves. I would just order the ice, pay it and walk away. I don't go into discussions or try to teach them something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post NanLaew Posted November 5, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2014 Vaguely on topic and totally sexist but there is definitely a trend to cute young hotties working the DQ outlets. IMHO they are quite the AirAsia of fastfoods in that regard. I have absolutely no idea what the stuff they sell tastes like either. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have absolutely no idea what the stuff they sell tastes like either. well nan the hoty working inside tesco has a face like a screwed up wet flanel. actually its not bad as long as it hasnt melted,rum and raison,almond and caramel,plain with strawberry sauce. i will have to have a look at the bird in the mall and check her topping. mind you the mrs.said she has a face like thunder.but who looks at the mantle shelf when pokeing the fire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOneAmerican Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) No idea why they wrote "Take Home" on them but probably they don't want customers to take it home because it melts and after being frozen again will become hard icecream instead of fluffy soft ? That might ruin their good name. Personell in such shops is not allowed to think themselves. I would just order the ice, pay it and walk away. I don't go into discussions or try to teach them something. I purchased an Ice cream cake a month back from DQ. Took it home, no melting, it was great. Chocolate and vanilla with nuts sprinkled on top 355bht. PS Anyone notices how small all the DQ girls are?

CharlieH Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Same here, bought a birthday cake, 20 minute drive home, still solid on arrival. Maybe the staff concerned have had bad reactions or angry people who have had things melt of a particular product and dont want to face that again so just stop selling that product for "take-home".

wayned Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) I buy DQ take home every time that I go. I buy the tubs that are already frozen and stored in the ice cream cake freezer. It's hard as a rock. I try to put it in the bag that has cold products and put it inside the truck out of the sun.. By the time that I get home, 65 kilometers, its just right to eat, about the consistency of the stuff right out of the machine. I then pop it in the freezer.

namdocmai Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I honestly have never looked at those girls of DQ, but i always see the fat ones going there to buy icecream and that makes me chuckle. I brought an icecream machine into Thailand myself and just yoghurt with namdocmai is good enough for us, i like my queen to stay slim thats why. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
