Who is touting it as a recovery drink?

Yeah, ice cream is high on the glycemic index and has some protein. Just consider it frozen chocolate milk to be shared with about 4 of your closest friends. If this version didn't have all the chemicals, what is wrong with it? There are lots of times I can't stomach solid food at the end of a difficult century on a hot day and ice cream has saved the day. Not sure, I'd want candy in it, but whatever gets some food (sans the nasty chemicals) in your stomach is better than nothing.
