Safeway now carries a brand of ice cream that I will actually purchase - Open Nature. It's still not as guilt-free as making my own in the blendtec where I can substitute sugar for other sweet deliciousness, but sometimes we want ice cream last minute and I don't have the stuff for the blender (or the girls are already asleep and I don't want to wake them with it). But at least this stuff doesn't have all of the crap that is in typical brands. There's not synthetic chemicals of any kind or fake flavorings or coloring or preservatives. There aren't any ingredients that I can't pronounce and there aren't any that I don't know exactly what they are and where they came from. I simply won't buy that crap anymore - even if the cravings are hitting hard. I'm done with food coloring. I'm done with preservatives. I'm done with unnecessary toxic chemicals of any kind. They're just that: unnecessary. Period.
I still prefer the homemade stuff, but it's nice to have another option if I "need" one.
