Tanika S.Tanika Smith: Try something different! Getting vanilla, chocolate, or anything else plain like it such a boring and wasteful idea for a J.P. Licks.

Ha D.Ha Diem: The waffle cones are a must get when you're here. It is ridiculously huge and sweet so sharing might be a good idea. My mango soft serve in a Nutella Rice Krispie waffle cone was delicious.

Yen C.Yen Chiang: Definitely try the Charles River Crunch - dark chocolate w/ almond toffee crunch. This ice cream is not too sweet. My friend got the banana and loved it. A kiddie scoop is large - you've been warned.
