After 1900, when so-called artificial ice became generally accepted as safe, mass quantities were produced at ice plants and delivered to homes. That's so bizarre. I would have thought people in the past preferred man-made ice as soon as it was invented. Who would want ice from a frozen lake? Lakes are full of all kinds of gross stuff. I guess I'll have to remember that fact when people argue about the superiority of naturally-derived products.
