| 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. | |
