Why don't ice cream sandwiches melt anymore? - Story
Christie Watson's kids love eating ice cream. But one recent morning, she saw an uneaten ice cream sandwich sitting on her patio table. When she looked closer, she couldn't believe what she was seeing.
"I noticed that my son had left his ice cream sandwich outside," she said, "and I was wondering 'why is there still ice cream in there?'" The Walmart Great Value sandwich had barely melted 12 hours later....even though it was an 80 degree morning.
"I thought that's quite weird," she said. "So I looked at the box, and it doesn't say artificial ice cream. It says ice cream." Watson says she grabbed a second sandwich and left that out overnight, and ended up with the same result.
"Monday I came out and looked at it," she said, "and there was still ice cream there. So I thought to myself: what am I feeding to my children?"
