Let me ask the question again - Are you guys actually eating ice cream from vendors like DQ - someone has to prepare it by "HAND"

There’s a DQ in the travel stop near a I-75 exit off of 484 in Belleview. Since it’s a truck stop place, it may be open.

This is the Twistee, it's only 4 miles past the old Lake Square Mall on the same side.

The Villages Florida

The Dairy Queen would of probably been open under normal times. Here's from their Facebook page. This is the building in January.

The Villages Florida

This is from February

The Villages Florida

It's on 27 a little ways past Pizza Hut, right after Popeye's Chicken. It's just north of where Krystal Hamburgers went in three years, and they failed after two years. That stretch of road is not the best, they really should of gone on the 441 side. We'll see.

Yes, I drove by yesterday. Drive through only. I don’t know what their hours are. It is south of 441, on 27.

I get my soft serve at McDonalds and Chic Fil La (sp?). Dairy Queen and Twisty Treat do have the best!

Why don’t you just go to Russell Stover in Wildwood, it’s better than Dairy Queen or just as good!

Then, you sir have never had soft ice cream. I'd rather have a frosty from Wendys then scooped hard ice cream, it's just not the same. McDonalds is OK if you like only vanilla, but their chocolate dip is lacking. You can't beat DQ. Don't try Chick Filet soft ice cream, it's not even white, it's kind of yellowish and doesn't taste good.

Try the Dairy Queen on 484 just west of I75 in Bellevue. Closer than Mt. Dora

Thought we were to stay at home unless travel was ESSENTIAL. Did someone miss announcing a change in State policy

Soft serve, frozen yogurt, frozen custard, and ice cream are all different things. Fat content, ingredients, etc. vary widely. All are yummy, though.

No, he/she is not...... we are staying home also, as are many people in the area. Some of us are really trying to comply and curb this pandemic. If more would try staying home maybe it would slow down.
