Gotcha! You made the mistake of likening sorbet to ice cream.
You should have said it's fruit juice with bitter gall in it,
frozen stiff.

  Do you
 JW> have those government/heart foundation sponsored ads there extolling
 JW> the virtues of 6 to 10 helpings a day of fruit and vegetables? (I
 JW> should probably ask someone who actually watches TV.)

I recall that someone rather unclear on the concept redesigned
the Food Pyramid, but that was in the print media. As far as
tv ads goes, if it's not on Anthony Bourdain, I'll never see it.
Bourdain: not a great cook, not a great writer, and, after seeing
several episodes of his show, a bit of a one-trick pony as a
traveler (I didn't know anything about the cuisine or the people,
but now I know that they are wonderful); but better than any of
the others on the tube, especially the zero-trick pony Zimmern,
who I wish would choke on a teredo worm and be done with it.

I'll bring one just for S&G. And pack it in checked luggage
and hope it gets stolen, so I can put in for full retail price.
