It is the summer and thoughts change from hot cocoa to ice cream. If you aren’t a hard ice cream fan, you may indulge in soft serve ice cream. It may surprise you, as it did me, the ingredients in “soft serve ice cream”.
Wakingtimes.com article states that “Some of the largest ice cream chains in the world such as Baskin-Robbins, Ben & Jerry’s, Dairy Queen and Haagen-Dazs all use the toxic ingredients in their flavors.
The list includes: ” milk, sugar, whey, and cream” plus:
Calcium Sulfate
Polysorbate 80
Magnesium hydroxide
Xanthan Gum
Corn Syrup Solids Corn syrup, corn syrup solids, and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) are all made from corn, and bottom line, all are sugar and genetically modified)
Potassium Sorbate
Mono- and Diglycerides
Guar Gum
Sodium Phosphate
Soy Lecithin or Soya Lecithin
Carrageenan
Artificial Flavors, Dippings, Toppings
If you opted for, say, a soft-serve ice cream with strawberry syrup or chocolate syrup (or dipped in for hardshell), you’d have to contend with these ingredients: High fructose corn syrup, corn syrup, sugar, E330 citric acid, E405 propylene glycol alginate, E412 guar gum, E413 tragacanth, E414 acacia, modified corn starch, E296 malic acid, E211 sodium benzoate & E202 potassium sorbate, artificial flavors, E129 FD&C Red No. 40, E133 FD&C Blue No. 1.
