    It’s just milk. People drink milk with their breakfast all the time. People put it in their cereal.

      It’s not just milk, it also has a lot of sugar and fat, but then a lot of cereals also have tons of sugar so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        Agree that it has a bit of sugar but all of the fat is purely from the milk. It’s not like they add extra fat or anything.

        However if you consider how much sugar people have on a daily basis it’s not an unheard or extreme amount of sugar.

        A glass of OJ has more sugar then what you’d consume from a little bit of ice cream.

        The reality is there isn’t anything in ice cream that would be any different then most breakfasts you have. It’s just weird to think about because it’s a dessert even though it’s just frozen milk with a little a sugar in it.

        ??? Show me ice cream that doesn’t have milk in it.

        You literally cannot have ice cream without milk. That’s what makes it ice cream. If it doesn’t have milk in it then by definition it is not ice cream.

          I was being intentionally hyperbolic as a statement about the overall degradation of pure food sources in common foods, dont sweat it. Not that I think we need anymore milk.

            Ya it’s existed for awhile. It isn’t ice cream even if it’s marketed as such. It has by no means replaced dairy ice cream. Person I replied to is making it sound like they don’t make diary ice cream anymore which is blatantly not true what so ever. Dairy ice cream is the most popular type of ice cream sold in grocery stores by a massive margin.

              I would imagine that user probably sees the same thing I see at my local grocery stores: Non-dairy and lactose free alternatives taking up more space than regular ol’ ice cream. Much like how the “gluten free” craze has similarly taken over store shelves.

              If I didn’t really look when I was grabbing something that looked good, I could easily end up with fake ice cream.
