I think the distinction is when it's more than a basic vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry ice cream. I remember looking at a container of either Cookies & Cream or Mint Chip and the words "ice cream" were not on that label.
What do you mean Ivory Soap doesn’t float any more?

I've seen it recently. Wasn't sure if it was one of the brands that P&G sold off. Looked it up and Dial bought Coast. Henkel bought Dial. Then Henkel sold it to a private equity company, which was then acquired (the whole company) by a Mexican company called Soldalis. Zest apparently went through a different path from P&G to Soldalis, but through the same private equity company.
Tried to figure out what bar soap P&G still sells. Looks like it's Ivory, Native, Olay, Old Spice, and Safeguard. They sold off Coast, Lava, and Zest.
LOOK at the saturated fat % VERSUS FROZEN DESSERT product. I got to run and eat lunch blood sugar is crashing!
Some of Breyer's is considered "light ice cream" or what used to be sold as ice milk. Other might be "frozen dairy dessert" because they don't contain enough real milk/cream and might replace cream with something like palm oil. I think the Snickers Breyers I got recently was "light ice cream". But cherry vanilla is "frozen dairy dessert". Yeah - it uses coconut oil to substitute for a good portion of dairy cream.
UNILEVER - makers of your favourite soap and frozen dessert! YUCCH !
Breyer's ads used to be about Fred Newman mocking anything that sounded weird. I think one was about stuff that had more than two syllables, other than strawberry, since people would know what it was. It might have also been for a western US audience, but I remember some ads made sure to add "Breyer's with a B" since Oakland-based Dreyer's was pretty dominant on the west coast, although they sold as Edy's in other parts of the US to avoid confusion with Breyer's.
These days the label is a list of magic ingredients like some of gum and stabilizers like carrageenan. There's nothing really wrong with those other than people don't trust things they don't understand. However, Haagen-Daz has a very simple ingredient list.
Proctor & Gamble had a huge presence in food. Pringles. Crisco. Eagle Snacks (bought from Anheuser-Busch). Folgers. Duncan Hines. Jif peanut butter.
The Dial Corporation started off as the meat packing company Armour and Company. Soap was made from the leftover fats from meat processing.
Many people have moved over to buying soap in grocery stores, etc., as an alternative to buying their soap in public houses.Does anyone actually buy soap in bars anymore??
Wow, I am impressed! I eat my own words!!!
You are right some of their products do say ice cream, I guess not one that I ever bought though.
So Ivory soap used to practice Witchcraft, but no longer does...
I was about to make a comment about floating ducks.
I guess now we know why it was never 100% pure...
would that work good to keep hour hands from cracking in the winter
yes it is very moisturizing
Dr Bronner’s claims to have a residual amount of oil to help moisturize. They use a blend of palm, palm kernel, coconut, and jojoba oils.
Addendum: forgot that they’ve been pretty adamant that they now have non-psychoactive hemp oil in the mix.
