The catering guidelines from many years ago for GRU-POA and LIM-CUZ were kind of interesting to see.

While not butterscotch related, it seems that AA is going to be testing Tetra Packed Wines on DFW-CDG instead of the traditional glass bottles.

I think it's only in Y, given the heavy demand for wine in the CDG market, especially now that it's free. J will still have the glass bottles (and, reportedly, some of the best wine served on board AA anywhere systemwide).

I would expect nothing short of Berthillon ice cream out of Paris.

So the Business Class crew had discussed my sundae... better than reading People magazine?

I just asked my husband to go out for some ice cream and butterscotch topping. Hmmm... where did I get that idea?

I will follow your advice and leave the comfort zone of my butterscotch to the hot fudge area... I'm just worried that I will like it so much I will have to start another thread to find out the fudge brand...
Of all the answers, probably the closest one to reality is that it doesn't have much to do with the brand, and all to do with the feet above ground

Thanks!! I have noted that, and will report back if I find it.
I will also bring the question to the FAs on my next sundae-catered flight, hopefully the toppings come in some kind of packaging that at least have some indication of a brand. I will mention there is 20+ people on an internet forum waiting for an answer

Now I've seen everything...I had no idea that of all places Amazon.com would sell it...try your local supermarket first, it will cost less. It is SOOOO good that not only do we heat it up for sundaes, but it's great cold right out of the jar when you just have to have something sweet. Their Hot Fudge is great, too. Honestly, puts Smuckers to shame.
