- callthisnumber, on 10/11/2007, -2/+46The other night I stopped at the Wendy's drive thru and got one of those root beer floats with vanilla ice cream.
It was an exceptional sugar high. I highly recommend it.
Yours truly,

- 1807, on 10/11/2007, -1/+17Man I love Ice cream. That and Chocolate are my dietary Achilie's heel so to speak. Why, if they mixed Chocolate and Ice Cream, I dunno what I'd do.
- Kumaku, on 10/11/2007, -2/+18This isn't too surprising. What's a better date than getting ice cream and taking a walk with your lady?
- inspecality, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15thats what she said
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14Your avatar is topical, you are too stoned to assemble a coherent post.
- swanny89, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Dude, I've got some bad news...
- inspecality, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7"What is the most popular thing in the world?"
"Music."
"No. Ice Cream." - jdoc, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Call me weird but i actually like eating ice cream when it's all melted.
- mrASSMAN, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7pretty impressive.. I'll give you mellow props.
- j4200, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9Agreed. Sharing a cool treat with my sweetie is a time honored tradition in my life
- inspecality, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7"I have no idea."
- roosterjm2k2, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Meh
We need a bury option for "Obvious".
Its like everything else, good in moderation. The wendy's float though....damned delicious. 400 calories though... If you could stand to replace your dinner with it, rather than add it to it, it would not be toooo bad. - Dyasa, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6Rocky Road all the way.

You get my mad props for that. - j4200, on 10/11/2007, -9/+13I SCREAM! YOU SCREAM! WE ALL SCREAM FOR ICE CREAM!!
- Augie1969, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4So, anyone jumping on the Gelato bandwagon?
Good stuff; healthier and richer tasting than ice cream. - whovian, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4We're not fat, we're dysmorphically challenged.
- FLaw, on 10/11/2007, -5/+9Getting ice cream, taking a walk with your lady and finishing off the night with a sloppy blowjob?
obvious i know ;) - PueSi, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6Strawberry beats chocolate and vanilla hands down.
- whiteboy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4If I'm reading that right, it looks to me like someone made off with $100 million.
- cactus476, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4"Is it good to Indulge?"
Ask me in an hour. - JasonCox, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4What do you mean eating tons of ice cream isnt good for me? Buried as inaccurate, ice cream didnt make me fat, sitting on my ass all day reading Digg did!
:-P - mrASSMAN, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3I think I eat more cream than water..
- Kronos6948, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3You all should try making it...it's well worth it. I make my own every year, and you can add whatever goodies you like to it. You also have total control of the ingredients, which makes for a healthier ice cream. No Polysorbate 80 or Guar Gum in my ice cream. But there will be a chocolate/vanilla/caramel swirl (yes, I make my own caramel too) along with frozen chunks of bananas.
- itsameericle, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3mint chocolate chip beats strawberry
- bobish, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2$1.60 + tax
+.75 in a waffle cone.
And you better tip, I'm on the 1-10 scoop shift. - jpt62089, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2@tavisjohn
Or I could go to the store get the ingredients and make 10 times more then they offer for the same price ;) - Kronos6948, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2damn edit timer...
Anyway, also, when making ice cream, you're not using a ***** ton of cream and sugar. A batch of Philadelphia style ice cream usually uses a 3:1 ratio of cream to sugar. For a little less than a half gallon volume of ice cream, you only need 3 cups of cream to 1 cup of sugar. When making ice cream, air gets whipped into it, which keeps the ice cream from becoming a giant rock swimming in syrup. The more air (overrun), the lighter a serving. This is how "Lite" ice cream is marketed. Servings are measured by volume, not by weight. So, when you buy "Lite" ice cream, you're buying more air. Same thing goes for buying premium ice cream compared to buying cheap stuff. The cheap stuff also has more air. Try weighing a premium half gallon of ice cream and then weigh a lite one or a cheap one. You'll see the difference.
Special thanks to Alton Brown for teaching me all of this. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Your mom is so fat, she puts her ***** in the overhead compartment on an airplane.

You can substitute yogurt for light cream, making frozen yogurt. Sugar substitution isn't recommended, though...you need the sucrose to keep the ice crystals small.
I'm sure there's a recipe using some sugar substitute like Splenda...but I wouldn't use it. I've thought about using honey, but I don't know if it'll work. I'll have to try it the next time I make ice cream. - Firehed, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Just killed off a pint about half an hour ago. But I'll let them know how you feel (friends w/ Jerry's family). Actually, after looking at the nutrition facts, I should probably agree. I love my complete inability to gain weight.
- theboohi, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Did people start buying more ice cream, or is everyone paying 5 bucks a dish at Maggie Moos or the other "deluxe" ice cream shops in the mall?
- jdoc, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2"You also have total control of the ingredients, which makes for a healthier ice cream."
...or not. =P - complainforever, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2did i forget meatballs qnd shakes?
I love Fry, Shake and Meatball, at least on Comedy Central - clink0914, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2http://youtube.com/watch?v=JFMG-eAi-jE&mode=related&search=
- spiffyfitz, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2As soon as I read the words "Ice cream" in the title, I remembered I had some. I got me a big bowl of Vanilla Bean and neon dinosaur sprinkles with whipped cream and chocolate syrup.
Wish my arteries luck. - dasilva333, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2they have a deal at my local supermarket dillons if you buy 5 healthy microwave meals you get a free tub of ice cream
- almalax19, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2***** YOU! Look down upon me because I like to eat something that is unhealthy.
Eating Ice Cream once a weak is not going to make you fat. - hbweb500, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3"$13.5 billion spent at scoop shops"
I can believe it, considering places like Cold Stone Creamery charge like $5 for some ice cream mixed up with candy bits. "Gourmet." - almalax19, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2You still have to use a ***** ton of cream and sugar so I dunno how healthy your gonna make it
- Urusai, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Soft-serve is not ice cream, it's frozen pus from the devil's pimples. Anything with corn syrup in it is also by definition not ice cream. That leaves about one door out of the dozen or so in the frozen treat section in Walmart. Once you remove products containing carrageenan or vanillin you pretty much only have a couple of brands. Here's a fun game: find them.

MSNBC Anchor: In other news, according our online poll; America's most liked ice cream is Ron Paul.
:) - tavisjohn, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3If you want a REAL Rootbeer float, go to an A&W and get one from there... The BEST there is!!!
- MackDiesel2010, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Everygirl: Oooh ice cream! Oh, but I can't have any 'cause it'll make me fat....but it's soooo gooood!
