Why is ice cream so expensive?

I went to the grocery store today and it's almost $5 for a half gallon and around $9 for a gallon. I'm just kind of curious!!

I buy Kemps or Cass Clay (I guess they're local type brands that's what I've been told). My favorite is Ben & Jerry's!


Answers:

Because gas is expensive. The price of transporting milk to a plant and then to stores, all while keeping it cold has raised the price. At least the price of ice cream hasn't almost tripled like the price of gas has the last three years.
