Getting all hot and Schweddy

By adamg on Sat, 10/22/2011 - 10:57pm

News that Stop & Shop doesn't want to touch Ben & Jerry's Schweddy Balls is apparently spurring a mini-frenzy among the local Twitterati desperate for fudge-covered rum balls. So here's a (no doubt far from complete) list of local emporia where you can get your hands on some Schweddy Balls:

I picked up some Schweddy Balls at Market Basket in Chelsea and I have to say it's no big deal. I'm a Whopper fan so I figured I'd like this, but the rum flavor isn't particularly strong and there aren't enough Balls -- either chocolate ones or the malted. It's not bad, but a little pricey. If I'm splurging on B&J's it'll be cookie-dough.

Why do I have the urge to talk about teabags?

I like to plunk my Schweddy Balls in a glass of milk and let my friends slurp away.

Lee's Market, intersection of Washington and Comm Ave.

I very much enjoyed buying my pint, but it's not my favorite B&J flavor. But everyone should buy at least one.

By now, people have listed all of the other significant regional grocery chains, except for Roche Bros. (anyone want to check that one? I don't have one near me)

My wife confirms the West Roxbury store has it, as does the Shaws.

They had one pint left at the 7-Eleven in Cleveland Circle on Friday night, so I bought it. They'll probably get more in eventually.

7-11 Hyde Sq JP has it.

I just want to note that I am terribly amused that you didn't list a single place in the South End to get Schweddy Balls.

That is all.

The "scoop shop" by the Natick Mall has it. Wegmans was sold out as of Sunday. It didn't taste anywhere near as good as I wanted it to, positively bland ice cream with yummy inclusions.

That's B&J's as in "Ben & Jerry's"
