The simplest thing in the range that isn't a plain flavor: a vanilla base and chocolate chips, with the base deliberately left with nothing to prove. Chips behave unlike the chocolate they came from. Cocoa butter sets hard in the cold, so at freezer temperature a chip is closer to a hard candy than to a bar, which is what lets it stay distinct in a base that's otherwise uniform. With two components and no swirl there's nowhere for either of them to hide, which is why a flavor this plain gets used as a benchmark. It's also the closest thing the range has to a control. Every other chip flavor changes the base and keeps the chips, so this is what the chips taste like on their own.
