What is the difference between factory and homemade ice cream?

The store bought tastes like more ice than cream but homemade is in my opinion more creamier.

Home made ice cream is made from cream, sugar, and flavoring. Store bought ice cream is made from cream, milk products, sugar, flavoring, artificial flavoring and coloring, thickeners and gums, ingredients for texture enhancement, volume enhancement, shelf life extension, and appearance.

There are some Bryer's flavors and specialty brands that you can buy at the store that contain only the basic ingredients. Always read the ingredient list before you buy ice cream; some brands have more artificial additives than others.
