If'n y'all live in an area with a Shoprite (US one, not the Manx one), Talenti goes on sale this Sunday at the ridiculous price of $1.99/pt. Sounds great, right? It gets better. With a coupon in this weeks coupons circular for 75¢ off, Talenti is $1.24! Wait... no it isn't... SR doubles coupon valued at 99¢ and under, so it's $1.50 off... meaning that it's motherfucking 49¢ this week.
I've never had Talenti, but all the nigresses I know talk about how good "perm jar ice cream" is and at 49¢/pt, why not give it a go, right?

Talenti is great and I've eaten lots of it, but pic related is completely unmatched in this arena. It's so far beyond any other packaged ice cream/gelato etc that I've ever had, it is in its own tier, alone on top of the mountain.

Not quite.
'Pane gelato' would literally mean "cold bread," not "frozen bread." "Frozen bread" would be "pane SURgelato" (more correct) or "pane CONgelato" (less correct, but still not entirely wrong).

No, it's in boutique groceries like Fresh Market here in the south. You can probably find it in large chains. 1,500 flavors refer to them making up new flavors all the time at their sit-down locations.
