Ice Cream. How It's Made. As a fat person, I am uniquely attuned to every diet known to humankind. I have tried them all. The fact that I failed, I attribute to sweet sugar and its progeny. We all need help, and the best way to start is to avoid assuming that what we see in the refrigerator came into existence already wrapped in plastic. They inject dye to make it pretty. They process it to add all sorts of addictive chemicals. And, we avert our eyes to the process. Result? Fatness. So, perhaps the solution is to consider how our sweet treats get made, before they appear in the freezer or refrigerator. I lost my taste for ice cream after watching how it is really made. It does not come out of the cows in a package.
