For National Ice Cream Month, we're highlighting the quintessential summer dessert, ice cream. While undeniably delicious, ice cream is political, like much of the food supply. These books dive into the history of ice cream, give recipe ideas that you can try at home, and then delve into the darker side of the dairy industry. Overworked and underpaid migrant farmworkers without any rights, animals that are bred for overproduction in small pens with little thought for clean air or sufficient space, and oversight issues that cause hundreds of recalls each year - this is the reality of our global food chain. So as you enjoy a sweet treat on a hot summer day, you can think a bit more about where your ice cream comes from and discover how you can eat more ethically.
