Ice Cream; we all scream for Ice Cream

[Gunny]

The wife and I are making up two batches of homemade ice cream this afternoon - one vanilla and the other will be peach. I love homemade ice cream, but I won't turn down store bought either.

Costco premium vanilla, no better ice cream on earth. Just wish they had other flavors.

Ice cream saved me from cigarettes...Sharn Jean and I made a trip to the local Braum's Ice Cream parlor every evening for a month right after we quit. It was a life saver, and all my clothes need altered.

My wife has tried several brands and likes a couple of them. She went on weight watchers well over a year ago and is religious about portion control, carbs, sugar, etc....

I also have diabetic friend that eats sugar free ice cream and seems to be pretty satisfied with it.

I've even tried it and it is pretty tasty!

Give it a try if the other ingredients are OK with your diet. :thumbsup:

Most of those seem pretty high in Carbs though..

Sharn Jean and I used to collect antique soda fountain glass ware and such; a consequence of our "empty nest" syndrome. We probably have a couple thousand dollars worth of old malt, coke and soda glasses, ice cream dishes, both plain and fancy; ice cream dippers, malt mixer, even have an old twisted wire leg Oak ice cream table and four chairs. Most is in storage, or in a display case...guess it's time to think about selling it all. It's just taking up space now. Sigh...wish I had some pictures...

I never understood the love people in my parts have for home made ice cream. Many times there is a big church social and people bring in the home made and make a big deal over it. Must be a cultural thing.

Give me store bought premium any day. Creamier, tastier consistent and I am not convinced it is any more expensive.

Personally I like both!

But my endocrinologist seems to not be a fan like I am!

OMG! I haven't had homemade peach ice cream since the last my Mom made back in the 50's.

Grew up with a peach tree and home made ice cream. Nothing finer.

I love peach ice cream, in my case it was my grandmother's homemade :licking: . . .but it was the same timeframe . . . mother's was good and she used the same recipe as grandma a "little bit" of this and a pinch of that kind of thing :laughing: but for some reason it was not as good as her mother's.

Everyone Screamed here when the (Chapmans) newly expanded ice cream plant here burned to the ground. Welders didn't know spray foam insulation burned!

Mom's was good too; don't have her recipe, but I recall she "cooked" the basic recipe on the stove, before adding the fruit. We of course froze it in one of the old hand cranked freezers. She was pretty creative, sometimes adding Tapioca to the ice cream. I recall one time she ran out of vanilla flavoring, and substituted maple. Disaster.

Yep have had the added Tapioca too . . . never had the substituted maple though, I believe I have seen maple flavored ice cream at the store :confused3:

Hmmm, maple syrup ice cream sounds good, but i've tasted some pretty bad 'maple' flavoring. But, fresh, ripe peaches in home made vanilla ice cream is divine.

Yep, just can't be beat!

My mother used to get maple walnut ice cream at the store when we were kids. Don't know if they still make it. I think I'll pass on peach ice cream tho...doesn't sound all that appealing to me.

Oh that sounds GOOD! Peach ice cream mentioned does as well!

Every now and then I have some Ben & Jerrys Cherry Garcia, that's my favorite flavor. Second would be Butter Crunch or just plain old vanilla

Anyone recall "Baseball Nut"? Baskins and Robbins used to make it during baseball season. MMMM...better even than Tutti Fruiti!
