Tasty Treet

A quintessential part of the small town American summer are places like these, known in midwestern parlance as dairy freezes or dips. It’s premade, it’s machine processed, it’s soft-​serve, it’s pure fat, and it is absolutey a cheep treat. This dip in the typical white crumbling shack is pretty standard for the type, the walk up and hang in the heat place with all the usual ice cream dishes and comfort food as you’d expect.
I think three stars is fair here, though I was tempted to go lower. The hotdog I had was $ 1.50 and its quality match the price – a basic frank boiled. The mustard and onions I garnished it with was decent. I had a chocolate shake and I was dissapointed. For $ 3.00, the large size I ordered wasn’t large enough for the price, and it wasn’t filled completely at that, and most of it was more frosty goop than liquid; Graeter’s makes theirs with real hard ice cream and real milk and price their large at $ 5 which is larger, so I feel justified expecting pre-​bagged, soft-​serve to be served at the same amount priced $ 3.
By policy they’ll only run cards for bills above five-​bucks. They were going to add a surcharge to mine as I was a dollar short. I asked them to add a bag of chips – no need to pay a dollar for nothing. This is something they should suggest. But the staff was high schoolers probably working their first jobs so I will forgive them.
There are about three concrete tables with benches out in the dusty lot to sit on.

First off, let me start by saying… THIS IS THE BEST PLACE FOR CHICKEN SANDWICHES AND ICE CREAM IN AMERICA!!! POSSIBLY THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!
When I was a kid I used to come to Ohio to visit my mom’s side of the family. Minster was her hometown so we would always come here. When I was (I think) five years old I came here for the first time. The shredded chicken sandwiches are TO DIE FOR!!! I can eat two or three of them without a problem and they are pretty big, the size of a hamburger. You get a bunch of shredded chicken, pickles, and a hamburger bun. Sounds simple? That’s because it is… but that’s the beauty of it!!! It’s so simple and sooooooo amazing!!! The ice cream is another story… I am not a big ice cream fan, I really don’t like eating it at all. But the vanilla ice cream here is QUALITY homemade ice cream unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. They also have a lot of other stuff on the menu and I’m sure it’s all amazing but I’m loyal to my chicken sandwiches!
The appearance of this place is nothing special, it’s down the street from a cemetery, and across the street from the biggest house in Minster (I think my mom said a dentist lived there). The place itself is a lone building in a gravel covered parking lot (if you can even call it that), and there’s a few stone tables under some trees to enjoy your meal. Nothing glamorous at all. But again… that is the beauty of it. The simplicity! If you’re ever passing through, STOP AT TASTY TREAT!!! Your life will be changed!
