Lately, I think it's the price that most people are screaming about. I wonder how many people still haven't noticed that the size of the carton went down at the same time the price was going up. A gallon of ice cream is a thing of the past, and $4.99 a pint has become the new normal. It's a lot higher, if one isn't content to take a dose of rBGH, antibiotics, glyphosate, GMO allergens from soy and sugar beets, carrageenan, and an assortment of petroleum based food colors along with desert.
I'm not, and I've been paying roughly ten bucks a pop for Alden's organic ice cream, just for the privilege of eating ice cream that really is just ice cream.

WelcomeI am, and have always been, unafraid to voice my opinions. In fact I believe everyone needs to vent now and then, and we all have a God given right to do so. I despise willful ignorance and intellectual dishonesty, and take a perhaps perverse pleasure in puncturing the politically correct proclamations of those who have anointed themselves as our betters. I could be described as a contrarian and a bit of a curmudgeon, having now reached an age at which those labels no longer sound odd. Not everything I'll address here will be controversial. In fact, I would rather keep that sort of thing somewhat limited (and it should surprise no one that I probably won't succeed in doing so). We already have our fill of whining talking heads on the 'net. However, if you are easily offended or thin skinned, you might want to skip this blog. You have been warned. Archives
