Kyle's science fair project

Well, I made it through another science fair project!  This is my 4th one.  I think I'm finally getting the hang of it!
 
We had a cool idea to compare 5 different brands of vanilla ice cream and see which one melted the fasted.  It was a fun project.  We checked and compared at different intervals:  10 min, 20 min, 30 min, and 45 min.  And then we waited until the last brand melted, which was roughly 49 minutes.  We compared ingredients and fat content, to see if those were factors.  I think they were.
 
 


Anyway, it was a lot of fun and Kyle did a great job!  And just fyi, the Meadow Gold brand left behind a sticky residue once it had completely melted.  It was kind of gross.  I'm just saying....
 
Awesome job Kyle!

I am perfectly willing to be the taste tester for your next ice cream project ... which should be: What brand of caramel sauce is more pleasing to the pallet over vanilla ice cream ... Leatherby's, Smuckers, Grandma's ...
