More Chinese made imported poison - Walmart's Ice Cream Sandwiches Don't Melt In The Sun

[Yu Chu]

Last we checked, ice cream is supposed to melt if it isn't kept
chilled.

But Walmart's store-brand ice cream sandwiches don't even melt
in the sun, according to a report from WCPO Cincinnati.

The discovery was made by a local mom, Christie Watson, who
noticed that a Great Value ice cream sandwich her son left out
on their patio table hadn't fully melted -- even though it had
been sitting out for 12 hours on an 80-degree day. Watson left a
second ice cream sandwich out overnight with the same results,
WCPO reports.

"What am I feeding to my children?" she asked, appalled.

“Ice cream melts based on the ingredients, including cream,"
Walmart spokeswoman Danit Marquardt said in an email. "Ice cream
with more cream will generally melt at a slower rate, which is
the case with our Great Value ice cream sandwiches."

But as Business Insider reports, the product also contains a
number of additives:

According to Wal-Mart's website, the ice cream sandwiches
contain milk, cream, buttermilk, sugar, whey, and corn syrup.

It also contains "1 percent or less of mono-and diglycerides,
vanilla extract, guar gum, calcium sulfate, carob bean gum,
cellulose gum, carrageenan, artificial flavor, and annatto for
color."

WCPO conducted an experiment of their own, leaving out a third
Walmart sandwich alongside a Klondike bar and a pint of Haagen
Dazs ice cream. The Haagen Dazs ice cream -- which contains only
cream, milk, sugar, eggs and vanilla, and no gums -- melted
fastest. The Klondike bar melted, too.

"The Walmart sandwich, though it melted a bit, remained the most
solid in appearance, and still looked like a sandwich," the
station reported.

One word: EW.
