I guess with American processed foods being what they are, it's entirely plausible that the average ice cream contains additional sweeteners or at least HFCS instead of sugar. If memory serves HFCS tastes sweeter than the equivalent amount of sugar, which may be part of what you're observing?
Gelato is decadent. I've always found american ice cream to be kind of bland and watery in comparison, like drinking skim milk vs. whole milk.
- h4b4n3r0 8y agoThe ice cream aisle in a grocery store I go to has about 100 varieties of “American ice cream”. You need to be more specific. :-)
- js2 8y agoI generally avoid grocery store ice cream and either make my own at home or prefer to go out to any local place that makes their own. But as an example of an ice cream that’s entirely too sweet: anything from Coldstone. The one exception I have to grocery store ice cream: I’ll buy Häagen-Dazs vanilla for making a Guinness float.
