These days, if I come across ice cream of practically ANY quality finding it's way into my Escort, I make a beeline home to my freezer...

 Yes.
 If you the reader don't care that Max just let lots
 of  better than you'll ever get ice cream
 just disappear, I'd say you need to check your
 automatic readers setting.  Unless you are rich.

 Ok, what's the objection here?
 
 ("You will want cause and effect") -
  is it the scene where horst can't find the flavor he
 wants because it was discontinued in 97?
 I'm pretty sure you're not demanding much
 depiction of the actual schlepping of icecream... are you
 saying there's narrative inconsistent with the proper
 paper trail for the ice cream? Something like Maxine taking
 delivery but not making it back home within reasonable
 melting time? Hmmm?
 
 
 
 Where?  What page?
