Do people up north eat snow cream?

Or people from areas that get a good bit of snow every year... or is this just a treat for southerners and others that only get maybe one good snow a year... ?
Also, if you do make it... what's your recipe?
Mine's just vanilla, sugar, milk, and snow.... but I'm sure you could really jazz it up with some condensed milk, half and half, or whipping cream.. but to me the simplicity is what makes it great...

TBH, making anything out of snow/rainwater is not the greatest idea. There's all kinds of bad shite in it.

Ever heard of the guy that was burning snow that fell and he said it smelt like plastic burning?

Doesn't sound like a good idea... but an idea someone from Alabama would think of...
Sno-Bitz >>>> Snow Cream

While I won't argue that point, I would argue that the food choices people make every day are much worse than what is in snow/rainwater.

When You Shouldn't Drink Rain Water Rain passes through the atmosphere before falling to the ground, so it can pick up any contaminants in the air. You don't want to drink rain from hot radioactive sites, like Chernobyl or around Fukushima. It's not a great idea to drink rain water falling near chemical plants or near the plumes of power plants, paper mills, etc. Don't drink rain water that has run off of plants or buildings because you could pick up toxic chemicals from these surfaces. Similarly, don't collect rain water from puddles or into dirty containers.
quote:
Rain Water That Is Safe for Drinking Most rain water is safe to drink. Actually, rain water is the water supply for much of the world's population. The levels of pollution, pollen, mold, and other contaminants are low -- possibly lower than your public drinking water supply. Keep in mind, rain does pick up low levels of bacteria as well as dust and occasional insect parts, so you may want to treat rain water before drinking it.
quote:
What About Acid Rain? Most rain water is naturally acidic, with an average pH around 5.6, from the interaction between water and carbon dioxide in air. This is not dangerous. In fact, drinking water rarely has a neutral pH because it contains dissolved minerals. Approved public water could be acidic, neutral, or basic, depending on the source of the water. To put the pH into perspective, coffee made with neutral water has a pH around 5. Orange juice has a pH closer to 4. Truly acidic rain that you would avoid drinking might fall around an active volcano. Otherwise, acid rain isn't a serious consideration.
I.E. unless you live near a plant (and that means so close the rain or snow falls through the plume), volcano, or radioactive fallout... it's pretty safe to eat snow and drink rain water as long as it's not contaminated after hitting the ground or surface.

Well, I live about 25 miles from a paper mill, and when the wind is from the right direction, I can smell it.

better move then.. you're breathing toxic air
They shut down the paper mill in my area, so I'm good.

Why eat that when you can get Blue Bell at the store and it's 1000x better?

So did my grandfather, anytime it snowed he'd be out before the sun came up and save a bunch of huge bowls of snow in the deep freeze.

It's frozen water.
Now if you wait til the birds shite on it and stuff falls from the tree on it... yeah
But freshly fallen snow several inches deep is just like shaved ice.
