1) Please keep all pets on a leash.
2) Please clean up after those pets that aren't quite paper trained.

    They just got better at making ice milk and now it is called low-fat ice-cream.

    The food grade stuff, yes. The stuff you get in the garden center - NO!

    Yep, there really is a difference.



    But I could have lived without knowing what they did to my ice milk. Some of us couldn't have ice cream growing up (serious milk fat allergy).

    They're going to be busy sprinkling that stuff for a while. Takes time to get all those critters.

    A 1994 change in United States Food and Drug Administration rules allowed ice milk to be labeled as low-fat ice cream in the United States

    It's also why it's good to have electronic ignition on our stoves and heaters instead of pilot lights.

    Maybe his bottle said inflammable and he figurated that meant not flammable.
