27. Falk Sisters Lemon Custard Ice Cream R.I.P.

I think they were from Page County Iowa and made a great ice cream. They passed and the ice cream was still sold for a quite a while and then disappeared. Ten years maybe more ago I saw some of their Lemon Custard in the freezer at the grocery store and grabbed a half gallon. Well it did have a lemon flavor but the texture was all wrong. I went back to my freezer to read the ingredients list and found guar gum listed. I think I can guarantee the original Falk Sister's Lemon Custard Ice Cream recipe never included stinking guar gum. The new recipe wasn't around long and only old turds like me remember what was.
