I can't share your opinion. Langnese is a german corporation selling icecream. To make it more international: Here in good old austria, ESKIMO (tm) sells the same products! BTW, ESKIMO alias Langnese is a kind of 'junk-icecream' made out of water instead of milk. If you visit Vienna someday, don't get an ESKIMO, try one of the excellent italian ice-saloons or the famouse ice-saloon 'Tichy' in the 10th district! sers, Alex
