From Ice Cream Trucks to a Wholesale Warehouse

Long before the warehouse doors opened, ice cream trucks were part of daily life. Growing up, selling ice cream wasn’t just a summer job—it was a lesson in responsibility and earning your way. As soon as a driver’s license was earned, keys to an ice cream truck followed.

Those early experiences helped shape the values behind Julz Ice Cream and Candies, where dedication and hands-on involvement still guide the business today.

Why Ice Cream Makes Us Smile

Ice cream is tied to happy moments like celebrations, summer days, and treats after dinner. Cold temperatures can even help slow down how fast we eat, making the experience last longer.

Sometimes, it’s not just about the flavor—it’s about the feeling that comes with it.

Vanilla Isn’t “Plain” at All

Vanilla often gets labeled as boring, but it’s anything but. Real vanilla comes from orchids and requires careful growing and harvesting.

Its gentle flavor also makes it the perfect base for toppings, sauces, and mix-ins—proving that simple can still be special.

How It’s Made: Nutella, String Cheese, Aluminum Foil, Mustard

Nutella contains palm oil, and in 2016 the European Food Safety Authority warned that refining palm oil at high temperatures can create compounds linked to cancer risk in animal studies.

It was not a ban, but it was enough to raise quiet concern among scientists and consumers alike. Ferrero responded by stating it tightly controls temperatures and raw materials, maintaining that Nutella remains within legal safety limits. The discussion remains scientific, cautious, and far from settled.

And yet, Nutella’s popularity in the United States continues to grow. Data from Statista and Nielsen shows it now appears in more than one-third of American households.

So how are products like Nutella actually made?

Captain Discovery steps inside modern factories to examine the processes behind creamy spreads, stretchable string cheese, razor-thin aluminum foil, and mustard built for shelf life and consistency. From heat and chemistry to precision rolling and emulsions, this episode explores how everyday foods and materials are engineered — and why questions often follow popularity.

The Science of Brain Freeze

Ever felt a sudden headache after eating ice cream too fast? That’s brain freeze! It happens when something very cold touches the roof of your mouth.

Your body reacts by quickly changing blood flow, which causes that brief zing. Good news: eating slowly usually keeps brain freeze away.

Why Ice Cream Is So Creamy

That smooth, creamy texture doesn’t happen by accident. Ice cream is churned while it freezes, which keeps ice crystals small and mixes in air.

This process creates the soft, scoopable texture we love. Without churning, ice cream would be more like a solid block of ice!
