Ice cream became artificial or expensive; and then got flooded with silly stunts like "little debbie" flavors. Few today have made (or had others make) real ice cream to have a standard to compare against. I expect a new revival of home made ice cream soon. Its a good route to selling a bunch of hardware. Make a bunch of mini refrigeration units wrapped around the usual agitator motor: "salt free" ice cream maker. Do a few infomercials and it could be the next Juicero.

Yes, ice cream that melts into what resembles a soapy sponge, and takes weeks to finally disappear from the sidewalk is scary. Thankfully there still are ice cream makers that use actual cream, and not whatever this modern concoction is. Someone will come up with an Instant Pot convenience level ice cream maker, and then it'll be worth eating again.
