Our Morgan Koziar caught up with Rita’s Italian Ice & Frozen Custard Owner, Tammy Wiley to find out the difference between ice cream and custard. Tammy says the main difference is that custard is made with egg yolks, and has a thicker, creamier texture. All day August 8th you can get a promotional size of hand scooped or soft serve frozen custard for 99¢ at the Rita’s in Altoona (3415 Pleasant Valley Blvd.) and in Bedford (106 Pitt St.).
