What's the difference between eating this or just eating regular ice cream and taking a regular lactaid tablet with it? Chemically speaking, I would assume the lactase in the lactaid ice cream is more evenly distributed and should lead to less digestive trouble, but I don't have the necessary lactose trouble to know if that's true or not. It's not about to blow your favorite ice cream out of the water.īefore I go, I have a question for all our lactose intolerant friends out there. If not, it's still not terrible, but it may not make the best first impression. If you have trouble with lactose, sure, give this a try. Now on one hand, it's not bad, but on the other hand, it uses budget ingredients.What this means to me personally is that I can't tell if any points of contention are because of the lactase or the budget. First, I've moved on from that sherbet thought I had originally (maybe the top was a little freezer burned). On Second Scoop: So I've been going back and forth on how I feel about this one. It's nice the lactose intolerant crowd gets a few more options, but I think they could tweak this one. The ingredient list doesn't exactly read like top notch ice cream, so maybe that's part of it. There's something missing in the flavor profile of the base. Despite being together, I never thought 'wow, that was a nice chocolate raspberry bite' Flavor is decent but I haven't gotten a whole lot of flavor mixing in this serving. It's a hearty, thick swirl like a thick fudge frosty. A bit watery in one sense and the notes also lack clarity.ĭespite not being actual crumble, the swirl is pretty cool. It's just that sometimes there are these weird finishing notes that I can't quite describe. So I am going along and it's not bad, but it'll never be mistaken for some super premium or all natural ice cream but I've had worse. Maybe it's just my pint, but there seems to be an icy component here so that's helping mess with that sherbet vibe as well. A big part of that is flavor, but just the way the whole thing breaks down feels like it's leaning more towards sherbet. If I had to keep things simple (and when don't I), I'd have to say that this reminds me more of a sherbet than an ice cream on first scooping.

(though technically it does crumble a little as you eat it).
