I’m so annoyed I can’t do dairy anymore. Thankfully generic bricks of soy milk are available and taste ok but everything else costs a fair bit more for less.

I miss those big tubs of basic home brand icecream and bulk yogurt. Also I would have liked to use the containers to plant in.

I really miss the coffee and grand marnier ice cream

Grand marnier ice cream? Tell me more. Where would one find this icecream?

So sorry this happened to you. It’s hard when you crave a food you can’t have. But if it’s any consolation, you’re not missing much with the icecream. Enshitification means some of those ice creams have so little dairy in them they are not even allowed to be called ice cream anymore. It’s ’frozen Dessert’ or similar phrases.
