At Wendy's fast food another guy there to a frosty "wendy's icecream" and just tossed it onto the walkway on a 80+F day in the sun. The thing was still a round by hollowed out ball the same color but some evaporated by non drained away "melted". It was still there 2 days later more like dough than anything dairy.
This is not new and if it doesn't melt then does it fully digest is my question?
Much of it does not. McDonalds is known to use an edible plastic in their shakes.
This is considered to be beneficial by some people; if you can't digest it, it doesn't have any calories, and fatties who pay attention can look at it and say "oh, it only has xxxx [4 digits] calories? That's not bad." Assuming you actually can't digest any of it, and assuming it doesn't cause you GI troubles, I suppose you could argue it's healthier. I'd argue the crap is included for economic rather than health reasons.
