Sad Discovery

[abracanabra]

IttiBitz look interesting. Tiny little perfect globules of ice cream? It's a good start. Alas, they are not tasty. The taste is like that of regular ice cream, but strangely greasy and with a weird aftertaste. There are two hypotheses for the cause of this: either a coagulation agent, or some artificial sweetener. Regular ice cream is much better. Trust me on this one.

I am very saddened, because they look like they should be awesome, or at least interestingly pleasant.

Yeah, the store-bought ones aren't really worth it. There was a franchise of stands that sold similar things, Dippin' Dots, but I haven't seen them around for a good long time. Which is too too bad.

Not Food.

I was visiting Wisconsin Dells this weekend and my s/o got some Dippin' Dots which I assumed would be disgusting but tried a bite anyway.

Wow, were they good. The ones she had were called "Rainbow Ice" and were more of a sherbet than ice cream. I'm still not sure I'd want to try one of the ice cream ones, but I ended up buying a serving of the rainbow ice dippin' dots for my very own.

Still disturbing, but yummy IMO.

These weren't actually got at a store--they were the stand franchise at a Timberwolves game.

But some not food can be very good!

Look at the success of cheese not food products!

When I see Dippin' Dots, I will try them. The rainbow flavor.

(Also suspicious: the flavor I got was the only one they had left at the stand. Perhaps Mint Chocolate Chip is just Not Good in globule form?)
