"Better living through Chemistry." Err, no. But will people pay more at Walmart to avoid it?

I don't know anything about Walmart customers, but I know what I did in response to the destruction of ice cream. I just started making my own instead of buying it at the store. It's easy, much less expensive, and produces a very high quality ice cream.

I live in an area that gets quite cold. On very cold days this winter, I experimented making ice cream outside.

Just make a base, pour it on to some baking sheets, then swirl and scrape it off. When set up, transfer back into a bowl and allow to freeze.

It has to be pretty cold for this to work, and the ice cream isn't perfectly smooth like with a churner, but it's pretty damn good.

The article praises Häagen-Dazs as a beacon of integrity. If a company names itself with deceit I am doubtful of their integrity.

"Häagen-Dazs" is an invented pseudo-Scandinavian phrase coined by the American Reuben Mattus, in a quest for a brand name that he claimed was Danish-sounding.
