>>> ice cream would be $14 a gallon<<<

It already is, if you buy it one cone at a time.

I often say that I have led a blessed existence. When I was a child, I could get an ice-cream cone, or a coke, or a baby Ruth 2-ounce candy bar, for five cents. When I was a few years older, terrible beer cost 35 cents a can. I eventually made my own beer at home, better beer, at about 2 cents a bottle.

Now, you can get excellent beer for around a dollar a bottle, which is like getting it for 20 cents or less back then.

I still like ice cream, but I make my own cones at home.
