Comment on Did something about mass produced ice cream change like 10 years ago?

Educate yourself and your friends about “the poison squad”, fascinating story of the kinds of crazy shit they used to put in food. Copper sulfate in canned peas and such.
Oh, Jesus. I’m autistic and rely on safe foods, I can’t wait for them to start killing me now

Cook meals at home when possible. You’re not the only one that doesn’t like what corporations do to food, autistic or not.

I’m going to start making my fries from potatoes that I will grow inside, although part of that is also just to save money on groceries

That’s really awesome. Respect.

Okay, after some research, I found out potatoes don’t grow well indoors and growing them indoors ends up being more expensive than just buying potatoes, but I know how to make fries from scratch, so that’s still better and cheaper than using oven fries or ordering fast food

Yea, I make my own ice cream, because, well, really it’s something we shouldn’t be eating a lot of in the first place (mostly the sugar, but there’s also this double-whammy to glycemic response when a lot of sugar is consumed with a lot of fat - ice cream).
So I’ll make about a quart at a time, usually for an upcoming event. I got my first ice cream maker at a second hand store for not much, and it was a modern one with the freezable insert.
