Here are my thoughts on Pride of the Farm ice cream.
It's excellent, but it has it's time and place. Not necessarily my across the board favorite.
Best comparison I could think of is mayo. (please don't gag...) Hellman's mayo is light and creamy, with a very light taste. Jewish brands are much heavier and more intense, with a more distinctive flavor. (My wife likes to call the Jewish ones "dips".)
POTF is like Jewish mayo. It's heavy, with an intense milky flavor. That is great, but I can understand if an ice cream purist would rather something a little more subtle. Just like a chocolatier would appreciate a pure chocolate - POTF is like the super sweet, overly milky (albeit yum) chocolate.
So yes, I buy POTF most of the time, but there are times when I opt for a more subtle alternative.
If I had to pick one that was my all-time favorite, the Klein's Vanilla in the box tops my chart. I'm not sure if they make it anymore. For some reason, it lost some of it's greatness when they started packaging them in round tubs.
