This may sound very dense but I haven't been eating my fave hagen daz ice-cream (belgian choc) because it lists egg yolks in the ingredients.

Are we safe to eat it then and Ben+Jerrys?
Someone told me it wasn't so I have denied my choccy craving *sob*

Thanks xxx

I was told we couldnt have anything with raw egg in...everything i have been unsure about i have avoided completely, along with alcohol and smoking. I dont think having none at all is ott, but it is personal preferanceee.

Im not too sure so i just avoid things i dont know about, there is always gonna be people who say you can, people who say you cant. Its only 40 weeks...

I just steer clear of anything that's a gray area or debatable.

eggs will be cooked in icecream - or it isn't icecream as it wont' set. Icecream is really just frozen flavoured custard if made with egg yolks, sugar milk, cream + a flavouring. Cheap icecream may have no egg in it at all - or very little - and use carageenan or other chemical emulsifiers (thickeners). Real icecream tastes better too! Haagen-daaz and Ben + Jerries are 2 of the better supermarket brands.

Best of all is to make your own - you don't need an icecream maker, (just some patience) it's easy to do, and the taste is fab. My friend, who says she's a lousy cook, made these ones from Delia Smith - and they were gorgeous!

if you look on her site, she's got about 20 different kinds....... those are the only 2 I've eaten. I used ot make icecream all the time when I was a chef, haven't made it myself in ages. Will have to make some when bump is born.
