The word "vegan" makes it obvious that it is not a milk product, just like "mock duck" makes it obvious that it is not a quacking animal product.<br /><br />Hope it succeeds. I will support DF Mavens (assuming the resulting product actually tastes good, that is!)<br /><br />- East VillagerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-61317104272112825212014-12-21T14:52:02.081-05:002014-12-21T14:52:02.081-05:00Why does DF Maven's COO Malcolm Stogo, yes he ...Why does DF Maven's COO Malcolm Stogo, yes he of the defunct Stogo ice cream shop on East 10th, think vegan ice cream will work 2 blocks over?

Colloquially, people refer to it as "vegan ice cream" because it basically does everything dairy ice cream does—except give you a heart attack. <br /><br />Like the former Stogo space at 10th street and 2nd avenue, this is the brainchild of ice cream genius <a href="http://www.icecreamuniversity.org" rel="nofollow">Malcolm Stogo</a>.<br /><br />Presently, <a href="http://www.vanleeuwenicecream.com" rel="nofollow">van Leeuwen on 7th street</a> has come up with some great vegan flavors. They're also available in pints at Commodities; you should try them.Scuba Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10326884503725331349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-72539877598761820942014-12-18T17:56:19.629-05:002014-12-18T17:56:19.629-05:00At this rate it should only take them about six mo...At this rate it should only take them about six more months to get the signage in place, or maybe they are waiting for the first big snowstorm for their big soft opening?Giovannihttp://urbanmyths.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-68610890985012065942014-12-18T15:43:09.915-05:002014-12-18T15:43:09.915-05:00Vegan ice cream.
