1. I know. Isn't that irritating?
And it's not just ice cream. Pretty much everything in the grocery store has either gotten smaller, more expensive or both... :grr:

2. Heck, even the pints are now 13 to 15 ounces!
Smaller packages, and the bastards at Haagen Daz dropped Black Walnut from their lineup!

3. I hate it when they mess with my single-serving containers like that.

4. I just love ice cream but...
I am lactose intolerant, so I can only eat a teeny tiny bit. I can't even do ice cream bars or ice cream sandwiches anymore. What little I eat is mixed into a float, and its not much. Just a two teaspoons worth.


I wish they would make some using rice or maybe almonds.

New York, Wegman's has several brands of milk free "ice cream"

You might also check the ingredients on sorbet.
