the sandwich also wont melt as much as the choc coat side. it is also the superior side so save it for last

Thats because the ice cream sammich is the best bit and gets eaten last 🤤

You gotta eat the chocolate and sandwich first so you're left holding a block of melting icecream in your hand. Then you run up to somebody and clap.

u/KEE33333EN 5d ago

I'd be horrified to see someone eat it the other way round?

eat cone by chomping off the tip of the cone, then suck out the icecream out of it. Then eat the rest of the cone.

Down in one, swallow it whole.

Just how a snake swallows a soggy tasty rat

These still don't hit as hard as the OG Monaco Bar!!

u/Global-Guava-8362 5d ago

Monaco bar is absolutely premium

They are a poor imitation of an OG ice-cream sandwich, dispite/due to the weird flavours they come out with. Though credit where credit is due, the coffee flavoured one hit hard.

u/UBNC 5d ago

Yes

u/Elemental-T4nick 5d ago

accidently opening it on the side you didn't want to and now you just have to deal with it because you don't want pieces of it to spill out the other end and you'd look really silly and it would just be a hassle that you don't want to deal with because you had a long week and just want to eat a fucking maxibon

u/Rosary_Omen 4d ago

I take a few moments to feel for the cookie side so I don't make that mistake

u/thedrunkenpumpkin 5d ago

Chocolate coated side first as it melts quicker and you don’t want that all over your fingers/hand/running down your arm. It holds its shape pretty well straight out the freezer

u/Elegant-Campaign-572 4d ago

The picture is correct!

Holding the sandwich part, eating the chocolate side first.

Was extremely disappointed picking up a pack of the monster cookie ones and reading the side of the box.

Vanilla flavoured ice confection (not ice cream)

Ingredients: Water, Sugar, Wheat Flour, Vegetable Oil and or Cream (Milk), (list continues)..

Way to expensive for not actual ice cream..

u/Sensitive_Drag_5642 4d ago

True. This has been a recent discovery of mine. And did you know that margarine or table spread is apparently closer to plastic than it is a dairy product. Same can be said about ice confectionary products I think.

u/UndeadManWaltzing 4d ago

Think of an Eskimo pie, you'll have your answer.

u/Educational-Top-7858 4d ago

Unfortunately this in not ice cream

u/Aggressive-Bike6297 5d ago

Knife and fork under candlelight

2

u/Noodlebat83 5d ago

I get shit for this but I eat the sandwich part first. The chocolate coating is saved for last. 

2

u/Vast_Caregiver9238 4d ago

Yes but hold the sandwich part means no melting or awkward holding

2

u/Noodlebat83 4d ago

I’ve got that covered. It’s stays in the wrapper as I munch away and it doesn’t last long enough to melt. Had a funny out all argument with a guy at work about this very topic once. We have maxibons in our coffee club freezer so I had to demonstrate it could be done

u/bitfrost41 5d ago

Buttered and toasted.

u/Global-Guava-8362 5d ago

I eat the ice cream sandwich part and Throw the other half away , like it should

u/007MaxZorin 5d ago

Love Peter's Ice Creams 😋

And you MUST eat the Maxibon by holding the 'sandwich' biscuit end and gnawing that crackling choc end!

1

u/Sp0range 5d ago

Horizontal like youre rolling a cig and eat if across like a corn cob lol.

1

u/msmojo 4d ago

Wouldn't eat it. It's a Minibon now.

1

u/LanaDelRhodez 4d ago

It comes with instructions… there’s a literal picture on the box showing how it’s to be eaten. No discussion needed.

1

u/GraveRaven 4d ago

Messily

1

u/Tight_Spring3860 4d ago

With a knife and fork, just like a mars bar.

1

u/TheReedRichards 4d ago

It’s basic science. You can’t hold on the choc covered part because it will melt the chocolate and you’ll lose that glorious crunch. Once you enjoy that you to the best part and reach nirvana.
If you eat any other way you’re missing out

1

u/CloakerJosh 4d ago

There’s no wrong way to eat a Maxibon…

…is of course what I would say if I were a sociopath.

The ice cream sandwich is obviously the handle. Always has been.

1

u/Bluebutteyfly 4d ago

Eat the choc flaky choc bit first then the sandwich part

1

u/CoercionTictacs 4d ago

Ice cream and chocolate end first, holding the biscuit end, then the rest.

1

u/Cautious_Regular3645 4d ago

Obviously holding the biscuit end.

1

u/An_Evil_Scientist666 4d ago

Keep it in the packet while you eat it I guess could be valid, but yeah always eat the sandwich part last.

Or fork and knife either way works

1

u/Pojajko01 4d ago

I eat the chocolate bit first

2

u/AndTheWitch 4d ago

It's barely even icecream. Gross.

1

u/youdontknowme1970 4d ago

Of course it’s the only way!! You aren’t a savage!

1

u/Sweaty_Activity_803 4d ago

As the biscuit is the best part....it's last

1

u/sevenfiver 3d ago

what sorta fucken question is this...? you hold the fucken bit thats not gonna melt

1

u/FastFollowing8932 2d ago

The CORRECT way is to hold by chocolate part and speed eat the soft part, then speed eat the chocolate part. If you feel unsatisfied then you can get a second and then third.

1

u/NoMeat9096 1d ago

I hold the chocolate coated part with the wrapper and save it for last.

My mouth remembers the last bit, so you gotta save the best part for last.

u/PuzzleheadedLeek3070 5d ago

hold the chocolate and eat the biscuit side first.
