eating ice cream

[Denny]

hey guys and gals-

i have seen less runaround from a question on carbos and beefheart. > LOL

now- CAN ANYONE GIVE ME A GOOD REASON FOR FOLDING IN THE FULL FLAP FIRST? IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS!

I AM LEAVING TOMORROW FOR ASHLAND, WISCONSIN TO SPEND A WEEKEND WITH THE MOTHER IN LAW.YOUR HOMEWORK IS TO GO OUT AND BUY A QUART CARTON OF ICE CREAM-ANY KIND AND REPORT BACK TO ME YOUR FINDINGS


oops, i think i went to the bahamas for a second.


i hope everyone has a safe and relaxing thanksgiving. at least as relaxed as you can get knowing big brother is watching


aw crap, there i go again

happy thanksgiving, i have to go do some water changes now.

is that the reason, ryan? if so i think i will take the risk and fold in the other one first until something bad happens.

now i am off to tear all of the tags off our matresses

In the freezer. you want as little air as possible to hit the ice cream! Folding the big flap gives the ice cream better protection from freezer burn. Any more questions! 8) Frank

Hey Chi- Been eatin' it a long long time! Frank

Denny...

You satisfied yet? :-\ hee hee I think you started something......

Personally I think Frank hit it on the nail..... :P

Shoot didn't see you Ryan on page 1....

Denny Dear...
now you even attracted God, and got his explanation !!
Heck he even made the darn box...... lol ;D ;D ;D

yeah...guess listen to God. lol. and..air = lousy taste absorbing into your icecream. who on earth wants fish tasting icecream from hanging out with a dead trout? LOL. full flap first...for a good seal. and nice flat top.

the reason why you have the big flap covering the ice cream is so it will keep the air out. if you had a freezer that is below -20 F degrees then you can expose teh ice cream direcltly to the oxygen. because our freezer is not THAT cold, it'll carry smelling particals and deposit it in the ice cream (ice cream is partly made up of air--> expands when frozen, condensed when liquid).

for example, have you ever bought an ice cream cake from an ice cream store and leave teh leftovers in the freezer (i am assuming that there are some leftovers). if you wait a couple of days (assuming you didn't dig in) you can taste the difference. but if you leave if unattended in a freezer below -20F it will taste the same.

Holy crap,

Who would think a topic on ice-cream can get so many postings hehe ;D

Denny looks what you have created. ;D

And wow Ali, thanks for the lesson on freezer burn and badly taste ice-cream if left expose in a freezer

I still have to go to my local grocer and find out about what that flap thing is all about...
