I love ice cream. Usually go for the blast from the past that is so called Eskimo. It’s so creamy, chocolate dipped. I tried once gluten free ice cream. It’s horrible. Ice cream should be rich creamy or I won’t eat it at all.

  No. there is no one who is lactose intolerant around me. I and my children all like the ice cream. But I seldom allow my children to eat it for that the ice cream is too cold to child’s stomach. So I seldom to eat it too because I must do be a good example for my children.
