Field Trip-Blue Bell Creamery

Today we took a field trip to the Blue Bell Creamery. No cameras are allowed inside the factory so I don't have many pictures to post, but we had an amazing time. I went to school for Chemical Engineering and this factory had ChemE written all over it. Batch reactors and all kinds of processes. I was in heaven! You could tell by the way that everything is done that a lot of thought went into the design and that they care about their employees.

I can't eat Bluebell icecream because I am allergic to milk(since my son was born). It aggravates my asthma something terrible. So I asked if they had anything non dairy and sure enough they had some popsicles in the freezer. You have not because you ask not!

Here are the kids standing in front of a model of the first freezer truck.

  2. I love Blue Bell ice cream! Unfortunately, my diet doesn't call for it now. :(

    I figured out that I have to your IE's browser to leave a comment instead of FF's browser. Weird but it now works. :)

  3. Rona, it was such fun. It was 2 hours away from where we live, but well worth the drive.

    Kysha, Oh wow, thanks for letting me know that.
