Ice milk

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ice milk is a frozen dessert with less than 10 percent milk fat and the same sweetener content as ice cream. Ice milk is typically priced lower than ice cream and is typically sold as a generic product.^{[citation needed]}

In the United States, the term is now virtually unknown. A 1994 change in Food and Drug Administration rules allowed ice milk to be labeled as low-fat ice cream.[1] Within months, the term "ice milk" virtually disappeared from store shelves.^{[citation needed]}

Products containing less milk fat but higher sweetener content are sold as sherbet, and products with no milk fat or dairy analogues are sold as sorbet. Products which use nonfat or lowfat yogurt or dairy analogues are sold as frozen yogurt.

Ice milk is no longer found in most stores.^{[citation needed]}
