Some algae are edible. Nori, from the red alga, porphyra, is a favorite in Japanese cuisine. Caulpera, a green alga commonly called arosep, is prepared as salad. A number of important products are derived from the cell walls of algae. Agar,derived from red algae, is one product used in making processed cheese, pudding, mayonnaise, jelly, and ice cream. It is also used in making gel capsules for some medicines. It is an ingridient of lotion, ointment, shoe polish, and shaving cream. It is also used as an important growth medium for bacteria in laboratory research work. Another product derived from red algae is carrageenan, which is similar to agar. Carrageenan is used in the production of milk shake, ice cream, sherbet, instant pudding, and creamed soup. It is also a constituent of toothpaste and lotion. Derived from brown algae are thickeners, which are used in making ice cream, shaving cream, rubber, paint, and dental impression mold.Some brown algae are used as fertilizers, and as cattle feed supplements.

The grade of ice cream does not affect the melting time of ice cream. Ice cream that doesn't contain thickeners (added to products to bulk them up and improve the texture and look) will melt faster than ice cream with thickeners, regardless of flavor. You can tell the difference yourself with a side by side test; put a spoonful of each on dishes at the same time. Leave them to melt and you will see the ice cream without thickeners will melt down to a liquid and the ice cream with the thickeners will hold it's shape a lot longer even if they are at the same temperature. You can also simply read the ingredients list, look for alginate, agar, carrageenan, guar gum, xanthan gum, sorbitol, glycerol, pectin, phosphates, etc. I'm sure that you've seen these and similar sounding thickeners is many of the processed foods you use.
