This is TOTALLY a convenience service. I admit that when the yellow truck arrives every other week I am torn between gleeful anticipation and dread. The food is never bad. But HOLYCOW is it pricey! One Christmas I had a couple dozen friends come in from various parts of the globe over 2 weeks and I was able to serve a bad-ass breakfast buffet entirely from Schwan’s(coffee, milk & fresh fruit not included.) The Raspberry Rumble ice cream is my crack! SO good. The fact is however that all of this food can be gotten elsewhere for about ½ the price. That does not stop me from dropping $ 100 every time he pulls up. If you are a wealthy shut-in then this service is for you!

Our good friend use to always rave about Schwan’s ice cream being so good. I just recently decided to look into it. I went to their web site, and ordered 2 flavors of ice cream, which I thought were very reasonably priced. To my surprise, to have it delivered by refrigerated truck to my home was only $ 1.75! A day or two later, I went back on the site and ordered sherbet, and to my surprise, it would be delivered with my other items. Then, I thought I’d try a couple of their entrees, so I went back a third time and ordered two of them. That was two days before my scheduled delivery date, and they too, arrived at the same time my ice cream and sherbet did. The delivery fee remains $ 1.75, no matter how much you order. Tonight for dinner, my mom and I tried the Beef Merlot and loved it! There was plenty for 4 people, and it was SOEASY to prepare, but tasted great! I hate to cook, so this is perfect for me! Try it! You’ll LIKE it! For dessert, I tried the Coffee flavored ice cream, and loved it too! Nice and creamy, and for me, a real true coffee flavor! Perfect!
