Frequently Asked Questions
Is Graham Slam ice cream discontinued?
Yes, unfortunately, Graham Slam ice cream, a flavor made popular by Friendly’s, has been discontinued. It’s no longer available in stores, and Friendly’s doesn’t currently offer it on their menu. It’s a real bummer for those of us who loved that graham cracker swirl!
Why were Graham Slams discontinued?
While Friendly’s hasn’t released a definitive reason, discontinued food items are often due to low sales numbers or changes in consumer preferences. It’s possible the cost of ingredients or production also played a role. Basically, not enough people were buying it to justify keeping it around, sadly.
How to make a Graham Slam?
Since you can’t buy it anymore, the best way to get your Graham Slam fix is to make it yourself! There are many copycat recipes online that attempt to recreate the flavor with graham cracker ice cream, graham cracker swirls, and sometimes even marshmallow. Time to get creative in the kitchen!
Is Welch’s Graham Slam discontinued?
Welch’s also produced a Graham Slam juice, and yes, it appears that this product has also been discontinued. Like the ice cream, it’s getting harder and harder to find, suggesting it’s no longer in production. Seems like the Graham Slam name is just not meant to be!

Whether you think of a “Graham Slam” as a pre-packaged treat or a DIY graham cracker sandwich, you’re on the right track. Both options are easy to enjoy and provide a satisfying mix of flavors and textures.
