Walmart ice cream sandwiches don't melt in the sun

26. it's a matter of quality ingredients, Codeine.

Yup, guar gum is perfectly natural. and nothing in particular wrong with using it as a fixative.

But when you're using so much that it functions as a filler, as seems to be the case here, well, that's just poor fucking quality. You buy ice cream, you expect frozen cream, not a cream based-soup of corn solids, starches, and gums.

it's sort of like the big rubbery chunks of red meat-stuff that tries to pass as pepperoni in a hot pocket. Yeah, it's porobably made of a fair amount of muscle fiber from a mammal and so can be called "meat", and aside from the massive wallop of sodium it's probably not expressly bad for you... but calling it "real pepperoni!" is still kind of dubious.

The real question is what is wrong with our food system that basic food, without 50% fluff, is so goddamned expensive.
