That's like saying corn syrup is literally an ingredient in sausages. Your poor choices don't redefine a word.

They’re both natural products, stop being afraid of shit just because you don’t use it at home.

Some people claim it upsets their tummie.

It prevents the icecream from recrystallizing.

They give ice cream a gummy texture, and are usually used so they can skimp on cream which makes it feel thin as it melts. You don't need anything to thicken or emulsify other than egg.

>>12000582

you don't need "great emulsifier" if they are "small batch" and "expensive"

Seaweed extra, aka glyco, is used ad THICKENER, so the producer can use less ACTUAL cream (which is hella more expensive.)

You are not buying "small batch local", that's false advertising, they are in reality mass production and just selling a hipster name.

It's used as a thickener, because glyco's water holding properties.Thickening allows more air to be mixed into the icecream giving it the a "fluffy" but airy texture. It's literally the definition of cheap ass ice cream. But they are selling it as a much better product.

It's a very cheap substitute to actual milk cream.

Someone's been watching those documentaries about seaweed and how it's "our future". Along with the same people who will force vegan diet and eating cockroaches daily.

Was it actually a local product or did you just fall for the marketing?
If they're local, go to their storefront and demand your money back

it's definitely local
i'm bitched because they have some interesting flavors
i don't mind spending money and supporting a local business but not for cheap filler garbage
reminds me of a local coffee roaster who puts today's date on whatever bag of old beans they have
it's double the price and visibly less fresh than costco so fuck you i'm not buying this bullshit
