Early recipes
[edit]I know of several recipes from the 17th century. IT seems the term "snow" refers to the way whipped cream rises. They don't mention "real" snow (frozen water) at all, but rather that the method in whipping cream into a froth is likened with "snow". This snow cream is flavoured in various ways - rosewater is a common ingredient in the early recipes. On the other hand the mid 19th century recipe is more akin to the thing presented on the proper page.--85.225.75.121 (talk) 03:47, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
Raw eggs
[edit]The text on raw eggs and salmonella is only valid for areas plagued with Salmonella. As for Scandinavia, salmonella in dairy products in very rare. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.225.75.121 (talk) 19:59, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Hygiene issues
[edit]Real snow is full of dirt no matter how white it seems. Just take a snowball home and let it melt. It's unfathomable why hygiene and food safety issues aren't explored here.--2001:16B8:3107:8400:D064:B692:4FBE:B3E7 (talk) 06:28, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
