    Default gelato

    Known and loved in Italy for decades, gelato seems to be slowly edging in on traditional ice cream and frozen yogurt as a third popular alternative for cold treats in North America. I swear: after I had gelato, I couldn't go back to eating traditional ice cream again (and don't even mention frozen yogurt).

    Its gelati. Its very rare to use 'gelato' because you usually refer to it as plural. You can't find 'gelato' a lot in Italy ice-cream shops.

    Molto Bene!

    Its delicious, and mostly 99% fat free. How could you not love gelati?

    They are pricey. One small scoop is $3.50. Since authentic gelati are freshly made daily, you can't buy them at a supermarket.

    Another reason is they are NOT as good as green tea ice cream.

    it's yummy, but i think i still prefer homemade ice cream.

    has anybody ever had frozen custard?

    Haha, It was more directed as a statement, but oh well.

    What country do you live in? Over here, at times Gelati tends to be cheaper than ice-cream.
