Plain Ice Cream Bars

Why is it so hard to find plain ice cream bars?
Yesterday, I was in a deli looking for a snack. I spotted the ice cream section and there were basically two choices, ice cream cups and ice cream bars. It was a tough call. I knew I would be driving for a while, so the cups would've been out of the question. So my only other option was the chocolate coated ice cream bars. I had to skip the ice cream and settle for a bag of chips.
Like most people, I love a chocolate dipped ice cream bars, after all, what's not to like? I'm an especially a big fan of Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia, Haagen Dazs, and Dove Bars. Truly great stuff.
But what about those times when you aren't in the mood for the chocolate coating? Or in my case, the times when you can't risk the chocolate coating dripping all over your lap when you're driving. Shouldn't they make plain ice cream bars too?
For me, it was just a matter of convenience, and avoiding a mess, but it made me think about all the people who are actually allergic to chocolate. If you ask me, that's a market waiting to be tapped.
Costco is the only store I've ever seen that actually sells uncoated / plain ice cream bars. Technically, they don't call them that. They actually dip them in chocolate just before they serve them, so you just ask them not to dip them.
