Ice Cream and Shaved Ice

Yesterday, I talked about 'kaki gōri' (かき氷), which means "shaved ice."

Which do you think is "ice cream" or "shaved ice" colder?

Ice cream is around -7 degrees Celsius, whereas shaved ice is 0 degrees Celsius.

However, I think that many people feel that shaved ice is colder than ice cream.

Since milk fat and air bubbles that are contained in ice cream do not transfer heat well, shaved ice can draw heat away from your mouth faster than ice cream.

It is getting warmer lately, so I would like to eat either one.
アイスクリームとかき氷

昨日は「かき氷」について紹介しました。

「アイスクリーム」と「かき氷」は、どちらが冷たいと思いますか?

かき氷は0℃であるのに対して、アイスクリームは-7℃程度です。

しかし実際には、かき氷のほうが冷たいと考える人も多いと思います。

アイスクリームに含まれる脂肪や空気の泡が熱を伝えにくいため、口の中の熱を奪う速度はかき氷のほうが早いというわけです。

最近暖かくなってきたので、どちらでも良いから食べたいです。

Very interesting! I have never thought about that before. Are you a food scientist? Also, nice English!

Thank you so much for the correction!
I am a scientist, but my major is engineering, haha.
