2006-12-08 Pumpkin Pie
(Vanilla)
9.1 Westfield, NJ Wow, the perfect shake for the perfect season. I mean, sure I had pumpkin pie a few weeks ago at Thanksgiving. And I've been having pumpkin flavored coffee in the morning. So why not throw a pumpkin pie flavored milkshake into the mix? Defreakinglicious!

2006-08-31 Peanut Butter & Jelly
(Vanilla)
6.9 Westfield, NJ The first trip to Cheeburger in a longass time. When we walked in I noticed a sign hanging up talking about a Strawberry Shortcake milkshake. Who could pass that up? Well, apparently they ran out of the necessary ingredients so I had to make a snap decision and go for PB&J. It was OK... I guess it did taste like a PB&J but I dunno, I was hoping for more.

2006-06-29 Blueberry Muffin
(Vanilla)
9.2 Westfield, NJ Another one of the 'flavors of the week' at Cheeburger. I was intrigued to say the least so of course I gave it a shot. HOLY COW. I wasn't sure how they'd pull this off, but they did. I'm guessing it was blueberry syrup and some crunchy bits of muffiny-type flavoring. I don't know exactly what it was, but it was delicious. It tasted exactly like a blueberry muffin - I was very impressed. The only downside is that it wasn't a full-shake... they left me hanging about 2" from the top of the tin. Bummer!

2006-06-10 California Blend
(Vanilla)
6.8 Bel Air, MD It's supposed to be a blend of strawberry, raspberry and banana. I tasted the strawberry and I think there may have been a tiny chunk or two. I also tasted a hint of raspberry from time to time (though it had to have been raspberry syrup since there were no raspberry bits or seeds). I tasted zero banana though - quite disappointing. The shake tasted great though, just lacking in the banana department.

2006-05-04 Fluffernutter
(Vanilla)
7.9 Westfield, NJ Another custom creation courtesy of the guys at Westfield. The Fluffernutter is a creamy blend of peanut butter, marshmallow and graham cracker and this puppy came filled to the brim. Overall it was a good shake. Good consistency and nice smooth peanut butter flavor. My only complaint was that the marshmallow was a bit hard to detect (or maybe it was over powered by the peanut butter?). Either way, definitely a good milkshake.

2006-04-06 Dirty Dan's Dirt Pie
(Chocolate)
9.1 Westfield, NJ A perfect blend of chocolate ice cream, vanilla pudding and Oreo. It sounded too good to pass up and since it was the custom flavor of the week, how could I say no? This thing was awesome. The vanilla pudding offset the chocolate base nicely and the Oreos were an added bonus. After polishing off a regular-sized shake, I was tempted to order a half-shake for the ride home. Keep up the good work, Dan.

2006-03-12 Peppermint Oreo
(Chocolate)
8.0 Westfield, NJ I had to change my choice of milkshake at the last minute when I found out they had no vanilla ice cream so I had to pick something that would go well with a chocolate base. Peppermint Oreo caught my eye so for some reason I blurted that out. It was decent, but the peppermint flavor was too subtle. That may have been due to the chocolate base, which I'm starting to learn can overpower a milkshake.

2006-03-07 S'mores
(Vanilla)
9.2 Westfield, NJ We're getting closer and closer to milkshake perfection. A fantastic blend of marshmallow and graham cracker (and perhaps a hint of chocolate?). And the bonus? I found a few big ol' hunks of marshmallow floating around - that alone pushed the score above the 9.0 mark. I can't wait to have it again... unfortunately there's about 75 more to go before that.

2006-03-04 Raspberry Cheesecake
(Chocolate)
6.4 West Nyack, NY I was expecting the cheesecake flavor to be a bit more obvious, but to be honest I'm not even sure if it was there at all. I think the chocolate base may have been the culprit though. I have a feeling this same milkshake with a vanilla base could easily score at least 1.5 higher. If this was just a Chocolate Raspberry milkshake, it would've scored higher as well.

2006-02-23 Caramel Apple
(Vanilla)
8.2 Westfield, NJ Again, not a bad milkshake. The flavor was a bit subtle - perhaps too subtle? If the caramel apple flavor 'popped' a bit more, it might have gotten a higher score. Also, I opted for the vanilla base because I wasn't sure about the chocolate & apple interaction.

2006-02-17 Oreo Green Mint
(Chocolate)
8.8 Westfield, NJ Yet again, an excellent milkshake. Minty and Chocolatey with a hint of Oreo (could've used a bit more though, I think). Irregardless, another recommendation and another damn good shake.

2006-02-10 Mud Pie
(Chocolate)
9.0 Westfield, NJ This is the first official shake for Milkshake Tracker 2000. It came highly recommended by a friend and it was phenomenal. Chocolate and Oreos with a hint of Coffee... that's good stuff.
