The kids may be headed back to school, but on Arch Eats, we are squeezing out every last drop of summer with the season’s most nostalgic sweet treat: ice cream sandwiches. In what may be their messiest episode yet, George and Cheryl will walk you through where you can get these novelties, from established local favorites to off-the-radar, secret menu spots. They’ll even give you some pro-tips for which ones travel well and which ones require eating immediately so you don’t suffer the same ice cream soup fate that they do in the studio. And if you want to play a game while you listen to this episode, take a drink—or a bite of ice cream—every time one of them says the word ‘soup.’ It’ll keep you busy.
