LeChat Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Quote There is more genuine discussion in this thread than I had anticipated. Me too. I know you like to joke around, so I kind of thought it was supposed to be just a light-hearted, joking discussion. Maybe others aren't aware of your humor. But, anyway, back to the topic. My relatives have asked each other, "Do you want ice-cream?" when they really mean from a fast food restaurant that sells frozen yogurt/low fat ice cream, so, even though we know they're different, we're not that fussed about what someone chooses to call their frozen yogurt/ice cream, etc. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 If its sweet, frozen, in the dairy isle and can be scooped and put on a cone--its ice cream to me. I'm biased. I love gelato. I used to be an ice cream and frozen yogurt fiend, but was introduced to a gelato shop in my city (its ranked 3rd in North America), and I haven't looked back since. If I get diabetes and this is the reason--totally worth it. The only type of ice cream that should be banned from the list, is fat free ice cream. That's like giving your child Bran flakes, with skim milk. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Hahaha. I think one of my friends gave me the unflavored ice cream, when they had me try fat free ice cream. I had to focus and concentrate, to see if I could discern the cold from any actual flavor O_o Wintergreen sounds nice. You know something is horrible, when you're insulted at them asking you a standard question like: "well, do you like it?" Link to post Share on other sites

daveb Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Oh, I bought 2 cartons of ice cream today, both from a local dairy business - one is chocolate with chocolate chunks (called Udderly Chocolate); the other is vanilla with marionberry and pie crust bits (called Marionberry Pie). Marionberry pie is a big thing in these parts (Oregon/Washington). Can't wait to try the pie one, which I haven't had before. But I need to finish off the chocolate peanut butter ice cream still sitting in the freezer - which wasn't as good as I had hoped (it was a store brand ice cream). Link to post Share on other sites

Is that what those berries are growing all over Oregon? My friend and I thought they were blackberries. I handpicked a bunch when I was there last, they are delicious! There's a type of ice cream made in Georgia called High Road that's super good which I can get here. It's kind of expensive, so I don't get it often. Their mint chocolate chip is made with real peppermint extract, so I call it breath-mint chip. Link to post Share on other sites

Duke Memphis Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I say that the main difference between yogurt and ice cream is the consistency when not frozen. Link to post Share on other sites
Member131995 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I'm going to have to agree with above. Frozen yogurt and ice cream are both amazing but have different consistencies when melted. Melted yogurt is still good. But melted ice cream makes me cry, whereas I eat ice cream after a good cry. However, I would argue that ice cream and frozen yogurt can be in the same category under: frozen treats because they're all yummy! Link to post Share on other sites
