Good Eats: the scoop on East Lansing ice cream shops

– Brittany Mearim“I like how they mix in the toppings. The toppings are really big because they’re homemade. They have really good variety.” – Andrea Raby“It’s really good ice cream on campus. It has more of a draw than a chain because it’s made at MSU."– Jane Sirigiri "Tasty Twist is more about the memories I've had there over the years of living in EL than just about the ice cream. It's always been like the late night hangout with friends and where we went for lunch in high school. But it's also one of the cheaper options and still delicious and coconut flavored soft-serve will never disappoint."– Kelsie Harper"I like tutti frutti because their frozen yogurt flavors are unique, but still really good. I love that you can add whatever toppings you want and it's fun to create your own cup of froyo."Links:cold stone: https://www.coldstonecreamery.com/aboutus/index.ht...msu dairy store: http://dairystore.msu.edu/tutti fruitti: http://www.tfyogurt.com/tasty twist: https://www.facebook.com/pages/East-Lansing-Tasty-Twist/109708919048854
