“Makes my tummy happy just thinking about it. “
A friend makes her own ice-cream. Nothing I’ve bought in the store compares to it. She uses real cream and regular milk. Those are the only ingredients. I find myself wondering why, since it’s so simple to make, can’t a manufacturer come up with something at least as tasty?

Grew up on damn good homemade ice cream.
Blue bell is pretty close.
Try Andy’s Frozen Custard. Its a drive thru, not in stores. Still not good as Blue Bell.

Cost is the biggest reason.

A friend makes her own ice-cream. Nothing Ive bought in the store compares to it. That is not uncommon. My wife makes apple pie. Nothing Ive bought in the store or eaten in a restaurant compares to it.

It doesn't need to stand up to sitting in a freezer for months after being transported across the country.
My wife occasionally would make her own whipped cream. Heavy cream and powdered sugar. Let the mixer go for a while. Best stuff ever.

why ... cant a manufacturer come up with something at least as tasty? They can. But you'd pay $25 a quart for it.
