I never eat store purchased ice cream, and only have a small dish of home made ice cream perhaps once every couple of years. I don't care for the mass of chemicals that are put into most ice cream. For example, I quickly looked up the list of ingredients for a brand of ice cream and found the following.
Quote:
Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid, Skim Milk, Egg Whites, Soybean Oil, Cocoa (processed with alkali), Contains less than 2 %, of
the following: Leavening (Baking Soda, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Sodium Aluminum Phosphate, Monocalcium Phosphate) Wheat Starch,
Propylene Glycol Mono And Diesters of Fats and Fatty Acids, Natural and Artificial Chocolate Flavor (Contains Natural Dairy Ingredients) Salt,
Egg Yolks, Mono and Diglycerides, Modified Tapioca Starch, Polysorbate 60, Guar Gum, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Soy Lecithin, Corn Syrup
Solids, Sodium Caseinate (Milk Derivative), Modified Corn Starch, Xanthan Gum))
No thanks.
