Birthday treat! Actually, my parents used to get me a pint of Haagen-Daas Strawberry ice cream for my birthday, which of course is made of purer ingredients than a lot of the fake "ice milk" (at least that's what they called it in Canada, which I thought it was hilarious). Here's what one ingredient list is for heavenly hash ice cream: FROZEN DESSERT: MODIFIED MILK INGREDIENTS, SUGAR, GLUCOSE, WATER,
COCONUT OIL, ALMONDS, COCOA, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVOUR, CORN
MALTODEXTRIN, MODIFIED TAPIOCA STARCH, SOYBEAN OIL, SOY LECITHIN,
UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE, GLUCOSE-FRUCTOSE, SALT, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES,
CELLULOSE GUM, GUAR GUM, CAROB BEAN GUM, CARRAGEENAN, POLYSORBATE 80,
LACTIC ACID, POTASSIUM SORBATE, POLYGLYCEROL POLYRICINOLEATE, COLOUR.
CHOCOLATEY CHUNKS: SUGAR, COCONUT OIL, COCOA, MILK INGREDIENTS, SOY
LECITHIN, NATURAL FLAVOUR. CONTAINS MILK, SOY, ALMONDS.And then for Haagen-Dazs ice cream: (in Canada) CREAM, CONCENTRATED SKIM MILK, SUGAR, PEANUT BUTTER (PEANUTS, PEANUT
OIL, SUGAR, SALT), LIQUID EGG YOLK, UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE, COCOA. Yeah, big difference. Anyway, I can't believe I found almond milk based Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia (close to Cherry Cordial) ice cream! B & J is from Vermont, so of course everybody talks about it in New Hampshire. And yes, it's like 2 or 3 times the price of the cheap stuff. But it's so much better! ALMOND MILK (WATER, ALMONDS), LIQUID SUGAR (SUGAR, WATER), CHERRIES,
COCONUT OIL, CORN SYRUP SOLIDS, DRIED CANE SYRUP, SUGAR, COCOA, PEA
PROTEIN, SUNFLOWER LECITHIN, FRUIT AND VEGETABLE CONCENTRATES (COLOR),
GUAR GUM, NATURAL FLAVOR (COCONUT), LEMON JUICE CONCENTRATE, SOY
LECITHIN, VANILLA EXTRACT, LOCUST BEAN GUM. Ok, it's not AS pure as Haagen-Dasz, but at least I can eat it! It was so yummy!
