What started as a friendly poll five years ago to determine the favorite Turkey Hill Dairy ice cream flavor has turned into a knockdown, drag out battle for freezer aisle supremacy. The Ultimate Flavor Tournament kicks off next Monday, March 4, on The Ice Cream Journal, Turkey Hill Dairy’s blog.
Patterned after college basketball’s annual NCAA playoffs, the Ultimate Flavor Tournament is a six-week competition pitting Turkey Hill’s finest flavors against each other, with votes from the Ice Cream Journal’s readers determining which one is the best.
“Our fans are just as passionate about their favorite ice cream flavors as they are about their favorite sports team, which is why we love holding the Ultimate Flavor Tournament,” said Melissa Mattilio, consumer marketing manager of Turkey Hill Dairy. “Before voting, fans can have a delicious time testing each option to really ensure they are choosing the best flavor.”
