I just bought ice cream for my husband , an noticed it does not have a shield covering the ice cream , and the outside does not have a seal around it opened it an threw it away .please spend the extra penny to safe guard your product.you have yo have heard that there are idiots out there that like to lick it in the stores. lost me as a customer User's recommendation: don't buy the ice cream, It is not packaged safely, no protected seal, it can easily be opened in the store,
