  • Ice cream has to be at least 10% butterfat and 20% milk solids according to the FDA.

    DQ soft serve is 5% butterfat so would not legally qualify as ice cream, though it would qualify as low fat ice cream.

    I do believe that most soft serve is a similar fat percentage, and also has much more air per volume than traditional ice cream.

    Also, I must say as an ice cream aficionado, I do love me some soft serve and I would never disparage it by calling it “not real ice cream.”

    Really great video game channel with unique content. He played all the same games I did growing up so it’s really nostalgic for me as well.

    The “unremarkable and odd places” series makes me feel some kinda way. And check out the huge back catalogue of his glitch show Eggbusters.







  • It’s largely a myth that ancient and medieval people brewed beer for lack of fresh drinking water, kind of like the “spices were for eating rotten meat” myth. People have always known how to find fresh water or preserve meat.

    The main reason people have always brewed beer and wine is because they’re good. Small beer was in fact made for funsies.

    And, interestingly, in certain places and times there was also a cultural reason as drinking those was higher status than water which was “for commoners.”
