The Popular Ben & Jerry's Flavor That Doesn't Live Up To The Hype - Tasting Table
"According to the Ben & Jerry's website, Chubby Hubby comprises "vanilla malt ice cream with peanutty fudge-covered pretzels with fudge & peanut buttery swirls." It's a fully-loaded dessert bonanza, and in theory, the texture of the crunchy pretzels and the counterbalancing salinity should have created swalty dimensionality. In execution, however, all of these scrumptious parts don't form a cohesive treat."
"As we mentioned in our review, "It's tough to distinguish between the many different flavors, and in our opinion, the vanilla malt base is so lovely that it deserves to shine. But in Chubby Hubby, everything gets muddled together, and the pretzel bits begin to feel soggy near the bottom of the pint." Elsewhere online, one Reddit thread dedicated to Chubby Hubby agrees, "It was good but kinda disappointing.""
Chubby Hubby is made of vanilla malt ice cream with peanutty fudge-covered pretzels plus fudge and peanut buttery swirls. The combination aims for crunchy, salty dimensionality but the many mix-ins often clash. Tasters report muddled flavors that obscure the vanilla malt base and note pretzel bits becoming soggy near the bottom of the pint. Multiple customer reviews describe a grainy texture and excessive saltiness. Reddit commenters say the peanut buttery swirls can overpower the intended malt base. The flavor placed 57th out of 61 in a Ben & Jerry's flavor ranking.
