It is ice cream, my dudes.

Imagine if it was on bottom

[–] [email protected] 43 points 8 months ago

I've been having weak thoughts about ice cream. Thank you for saving my diet.

"that's weird, when did they start adding fruit to the bottom?"

Just scrape off a layer under the toad, it's fine

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 44 points 8 months ago (2 children)

But the toad is the best part!

Oh so that's what "French Vanilla" means...

One could say that the maraschino cherries are the toad on top of the sundae

French people need to calm down

The toad might still be alive when you defrost it

You broke his spine or the spine was already broke?

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I didn't say I broke his spine

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

you didn't say you didn't break his spine

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 1 points 8 months ago

I would've but he did it to himself. A broken spine makes for great taste in a toad.

It’s a toad. Poor toad. Looks like it needs a hug and a warm cup of maggots.

—Oh, we use only the finest baby frogs, dew-picked and flown from Iraq, cleansed in the finest quality spring water, lightly killed, and sealed in a succulent, Swiss, quintuple-smooth, treble-milk chocolate envelope, and lovingly frosted with glucose.

—That's as may be, but it's still a frog!

—What else?

—Well, don't you even take the bones out?

—If we took the bones out, it wouldn't be crunchy, would it?

For those of you listening at home, the young constable has just thrown up into his helmet. This is the longest continuous vomit seen on Broadway since John Barrymore puked over Laertes in the second act of Hamlet in 1941.

As a Quebecquer with mild fantasies, I can relate. I, too, am a frog who wouldn't mind it's vanilla as long as I'm drowning in it.

Is this a really gross food stuff, like the japanese horse meat icecream or a nasty food safety error?

[–] [email protected] 60 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (2 children)

It’s a prank or one of those faked outrage memes.

When this was posted on reddit with a title saying it had been purchased this way, some people who worked at ice cream factories chimed in saying that was bullshit – they could tell by the way the ice cream was swirled under the frog. They said it looked like the ice cream was normal when purchased, and someone had added the frog after the fact.

Apparently they could tell because the container would have been sealed in the factory before the ice cream had set, whilst it was still quite soft. If the frog had entered at that time, it would have mushed down into the ice cream more, rather than being just on the surface. You certainly wouldn’t be able to see the feet like that.

Tl;dr: It was originally posted as outrage bait, IIRC.

(e: found the reddit post)

[–] sartalon 23 points 8 months ago

I am not an expert, but I went to BlueBell to watch themake the ice cream.

I don't see how this could have possibly happened either, unless it was done intentionally.

The whole process is sealed/controlled from start to finish. Now listeria, on the other hand...

[–] taiyang 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

You mean to tell me people make up posts just to get a reaction and/or internet points? Outrageous.

[–] SuckMyWang 3 points 8 months ago

Fuck. How am I going to trust anything on the internet moving forward?
