"Dirty Ice Cream'...Whoah!?!

In my country, we also have this called 'sorbetes' or sorbete in Spanish. It is traditional ice cream and can be sold by the peddlers using a cart. When I was young, I use it as a filling with bread buns. It can be eaten with the use of wafer or sugar cones. I anticipate that it will be gone if there is still coronavirus roaming in the air. Why it is called 'dirty ice cream'? It is because they were sold on polluted roads or streets. It was not because it is dirty. 'Do you have favorite flavor of ice cream?'

Too bad there aren't any more peddlers of dirty ice cream since the start of the lock down.

@Shavkat true. They might resort to other jobs. Either way, finding a new job in a pandemic is very challenging.

I agree. I am sure they are having a hard time where to get some money these days.

I miss dirty ice cream at times. It is really sad that they don't have income. Well I guess they can sell something online to avoid having much physical contacts.

It is nice to bring back the old days. If I have the chance, I will have one once COVID-19 is gone.

@Shavkat I am optimistic that we will knock this pandemic off but it's up to us to stick to social distancing to finally win the fight until a vaccine is finally made!

Aww, there's no dirty ice cream nowadays because it's pandemic, I guess even though there are other vendors like taho, donut, veggies wondering off the streets here. I miss dirty ice cream sometimes but in our house we do create our own ice cream flavors. It can be chocolate, mango or whatever. I still love chocolate wherever it came from haha :D

Such cart ice creams are very rare to find nowadays. But it does bring back fond memories of our childhood when such ice cream carts were very common and children waited for the ice cream man.

These ice cream in a cart can only be found in lowland areas. It is not here in my city. It is a good feeling if going to these places because of this reason.
