The Most Popular Dairy Queen Blizzard Flavor Was Just Revealed—But It's Probably Not What You Think
Summer is all about mastering the sacred art of the grill and chill—and no one does it better than Dairy Queen. Whether you’re a Dilly Bar connoisseur or you just show up for their delectable chicken tenders, you can’t go wrong with a trip to everyone’s favorite neighborhood ice cream parlor.
Even if you prefer a chili cheese dog or one of their crave-worthy burgers, the final cherry on top of the proverbial DQ sundae is undoubtedly the thick, creamy, mix-in blasted treat know as the Blizzard, and we’re not short on flavors to choose from.
Which Blizzard you prefer is purely a matter of personal preference, of course, but much like everything else, we’ve got some pretty strong opinions on which one is the best. To find out just how varied our Blizzard preferences are, a team at Grand Canyon University aggregated data from Google Trends to create an infographic detailing their results. And the results just might surprise you.

Interestingly enough, the most searched Blizzard flavor turns out to be the Turtle Pecan Cluster, with Oreo Cookie coming in a close second. Unsurprisingly, there was some consensus among regions regarding their favorite, with the Southeast—Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi—agreeing that the Turtle Pecan Cluster Blizzard reigns supreme, while the Northwest—Oregon, Idaho, and Nevada—prefers the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup.
Shockingly, Delaware was the only state where the M&M Blizzard came out on top, and New York seems to prefer Oreo Cookie over the aptly named Royal New York Cheesecake Blizzard. Other surprising insights from their findings included the shocking realization that the Brownie Batter Blizzard isn’t as popular as we thought, only taking the top spot in Missouri and Illinois. The more unique Cotton Candy flavor, on the other hand, took home the crown in a whopping seven states.
