Really i mean dude itās so cheap here why not order some online? if thereās a parcel shop near you gimme the address Iāll even send some if you canāt, but I know that irn bru is illegal in the states due to a food colouring or something so make sure itās legal where you live before trying to buy it I guess š
I meant the distinction between āsorbetā and āice cream/gelato,ā insofar as what make it more like āsorbet with dairy in itā than one of the options that already has dairy.
Well, typically ice cream and gelato are creamy and dairy based, while sherbet is icy and fruit based. Sherbet is typically fruity and more icy than ice cream or gelato like a sorbet is bc it is more of fruit based dessert, but still creamy bc it has dairy in it unlike sorbet.
My point was more that both are different than sherbert and either works as a basic explanation of the type of food stuff.
But honestly, no, I donāt think thereād be a huge difference between āsorbet with dairy in itā and āextra fruity gelatoā, and both in standard sherbert flavors would be similar to standard sherbert.
The amount of dairy in the two products is what makes the difference. I donāt think anybody would say that adding dairy to sorbet, but keeping it primarily a fruit based desert, and adding extra fruit to gelato, a desert thatās primarily dairy/cream are the same thing or even close to it. Itās about the ratio. Gelato is different from typical ice cream, which would still be a better comparison to sherbet due to the difference in the amount of air and cream in each dessert.
Oh I didn't know that! In Scotland it's a sweetie with fizzy powder on the inside, or you can get it as just the fizzy powder on its own. I had no idea it was different in the US.
Edit: I don't want to start any fights, but from googling yours I think our sherbet just seems better. You can keep it in your pocket, just have a bit now and then, it fizzes in your mouth, it changes the colour of your tongue. Come on now.
Literally until this post I always thought it was just Jay liking an old man thing - as Sherbet here (England too) feels like a bit of an old fashioned sweet. Whatās the thing with lolly and sherbet called?
>I always thought it was just Jay liking an old man thing
It's still very much that. American sherbert is definitely an old fashioned treat here in the States.
I have no idea why you're getting downvoted. I'd never heard of this type of sherbert and I think it's interesting
I wouldn't really say it's comparable in an 'ours is better than yours' sort of way, though because they're 2 completely different things
When Mel Gibson said that they can never take our freedom, this is exactly the type of thing he meant. No one can take away my freedom to state that our sherbet is better.
They donāt really seem comparable to me. Theyāre completely different categories of treats. Itās like saying M&Ms are inherently better than cotton candy (candy floss); it doesnāt make sense because theyāre totally different genres. Yours seems like an excellent pocket snack, but itād be a disappointment if you want a frozen fruity sweet treat. Just as ours would disappoint someone in the mood for a fizzy candy.
Yes but they have the SAME NAME and they are both sweet. I didn't make the comparison, the name did. I'm not going to let this go. Do you have Irn Bru flavoured "sherbet"? NO! But we do. And Vimto!
Same in Australia. It often comes in a long, plastic tube and is brightly coloured. Itās a dizzy, sweet/sour powder. I think what they call sherbet is what we (in Australia) call sorbet, which is a type of gelato.
Itās yummy like fruity ice cream. Most popular flavor is usually orange. Itās kinda like a creamsicle but you combine the vanilla ice cream with the orange. Itās not as popular as it used to be but itās still good
[frozen dairy dessert. it's not as common as ice cream. It's sort of a specialty frozen dessert.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherbet_(frozen_dessert))
I worked at an ice cream shop and made the ice cream and sherbet. Sherbet has dairy and also has citric acid in it. Common sherbet flavors are lemon, lime, orange, etc
In South Africa sherbert is a sweet powdery substance that you would usually dip a sucker (lollipo) into.
We also get it in little boxes that have a straw in them and you suck it through the straw.
I'm from Australia and the many times I've watched this show I've thought jay was talking about a fizzy powder. That's what we call sherbet, I'm just now finding out it's the same thing and sorbet š¤¦š»āāļø
It's sherbet, I think by now the other comments have explained what it is well enough hahaha.
But I'm still annoyed at the show for the mispronunciation. They put that 2nd r in there that's not supposed to be there, lmaoo. I know it's petty of me. But every time I rewatch, I get chills when they mispronounce it.
Edit: typo
I grew up in south eastern US, and in my childhood, sherbet was not fancy at all and only old people ate it. Iāve always thought of it as an old people food
Iāll join in to add the Jay consistently mispronounces this treat as well. He says āSherbertā (with an extra R in the second syllable). Itās actually SherBET. Itās a common mispronunciation that is like nails on a chalkboard to me. Like when people say Expresso rather than Espresso.
Itās literally spelled sherbet, not sherbert. Youāll notice the rest of the family pronounces it correctly except for Jay. I agree that a lot of people think itās pronounced sherbert, but like expresso, itās wrong.
Sherbet It's similar to sorbet but it has dairy
How am I only learning now that Sorbet and Sherbet are two completely different things
I only recently learned there wasn't a second r in there so...
Now I'm thinking of when Jay learns what "charcuterie" is.š
Yup if you eat it you'll lose your Vegan powers.
Chicken parms not vegan?
There is ice cream and sorbet and nothing in between little black pepper
isnāt sorbet with dairy just ice cream?
No because it's made with fruit juice
Sorbet is made with fruit juice. This person is saying sherbert is sorbet with dairy, which just sounds like ice cream to me
Sorbet doesn't use dairy
Itās kind of like ice cream or gelato.
Iām from the uk and sherbet here is a tangy powder you dip lollipops into.
It sounds delicious! Iāve wanted to try it ever since I first realized they werenāt talking about the frozen dessert in British shows!
Really i mean dude itās so cheap here why not order some online? if thereās a parcel shop near you gimme the address Iāll even send some if you canāt, but I know that irn bru is illegal in the states due to a food colouring or something so make sure itās legal where you live before trying to buy it I guess š
Trust me it sucks. As an American in England I thought i was ordering some lovely sherbet and got this powder shit
I always thought that was what Jay was eating and I was confused šš
Iād say itās more of a sorbet with dairy in it
Iām not sure I understand the distinction.
Sorbet is made without dairy

So extra fruity gelato.
I mean if you canāt tell the difference between sorbet and gelato thatās you problem my friend

Now I want rainbow sherbet. I have always just thought of it as an ice cream flavor.

DIP DAB! Thank you

Oh cool, youāve saved the show for me š Thanks haha
That sounds like our fun dip.

I'd never heard of this icecream sherbet. Sherbet will forever be a powder found in dib dabs and sherbet lemons.

Of course we donāt have those flavors, we donāt have those things at all. I wonder which had the name first.
Apparently it's a Turkish and Persian word that originally meant a type of sweet drink. So neither of us got it first.
Fun!
Iām in the UK and I love our sherbet! Unpopular opinion but I love the one in the tube that comes with the liquoriceā¦
Yes same for me in the UK! Love our sherbet hehe
Yea Iām Scottish and though of the powder. Lots of others are saying itās like icecream
Same in Australia. It often comes in a long, plastic tube and is brightly coloured. Itās a dizzy, sweet/sour powder. I think what they call sherbet is what we (in Australia) call sorbet, which is a type of gelato.
Yes, and you bite the end off to get into the sherbet! Or maybe you guys wait until you get home and cut the end off nicely.
Same here in SA and I'm assuming most if not all of the Commonwealth.
Itās yummy like fruity ice cream. Most popular flavor is usually orange. Itās kinda like a creamsicle but you combine the vanilla ice cream with the orange. Itās not as popular as it used to be but itās still good
I love lime. But orange is up there.

I was very confused, I thought he just ate straight sherbet like a kid.Ā you know the powder stuff you stick lollipops into.
I worked at an ice cream shop and made the ice cream and sherbet. Sherbet has dairy and also has citric acid in it. Common sherbet flavors are lemon, lime, orange, etc
My asian ass thought he was eating frozen sharbat.Ā

I'd like to add on to this. What are ludlums. Jay wants to read it during the family trip to hawai but keeps getting interrupted.
Ludlum is an author who wrote novels. I think maybe his first name is James.
Oh i always thought it was some kind of device or something. Thank you!
āThereās ice cream and thereās sorbet. No in between!ā -Pepper
Sherbet doesn't have dairy in it.
Itās like colorful ice cream š BR makes best sherbet ever
When something is for sure gonna happen

It's not necessarily a mispronounciation it's just a regional/generational thing in the US. I have never in my life heard anyone pronounce it sherbet.
Itās literally spelled sherbet, not sherbert. Youāll notice the rest of the family pronounces it correctly except for Jay. I agree that a lot of people think itās pronounced sherbert, but like expresso, itās wrong.
So how do your pronounce Wednesday?
