I don't know why because the article is behind a paywall. Drat. However, I do keep a stash of ice cream in my freezer so I'm probably all set.

I don't care much for ice-cream. Would I be allowed to opt out of that benefit?

Yup, me as well. Found a new supplier and so far, it's the best ice cream from a supermarket. Two ongoing trays, Triple Chocolate and Salted Caramel. Yummy!

I love ice cream, but it makes me so fat.
Most of the time I make my own, that way I control what goes in it. I occasionally buy it, but stick to just a couple of specific brands.

I have a bad addiction to it. So no stocking up for me. Instead I make my own keto ice cream using a keto replacement shake that also counts as a whole meal with healthy keto ingredients and minerals.

I can't keep a stash of ice cream in my freezer. I literally cannot ! Ice cream is my favorite food ever and I can put away a "used to be half a gallon" I call it (48 ounces) in 24 hours. What's crazy is 14 ounces will last me about the same time. It's like when I have a larger container, I can't rest until it's all gone. I know it's psychological. Anyway...IMO ice cream is good not only during retirement planning but all the years that come before. 
I wish I had some right now!

@OneEyedDiva Yes, yes and yes! I not only can relate, I do relate. Ice cream is proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy! When I don't feel like eating a meal, I skip the meal and eat ice cream.

Same here and I believe that a small dish of good vanilla settles my tummy.
I also hold firm to the belief that it is good for the soul.

Ice cream, like french fries, pizza, bacon, potato chips, and other greasy foods are a fine treat occasionally but unhealthy as regular habits. In my case not for weight reasons but rather long term gastrointestinal system health. In a minute will be eating one of these for today's Wednesday lunch:

I just bought some ice cream. First time in a while. Turkey Hill chocolate vanilla combo.
Company's coming. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Why not?
My favorite ice cream memory was my mother's orders as a hurricane approached telling us we had to eat all the ice cream in the freezer. If the power went out it would melt. The one disaster precaution I could really get into.
@David777 , please be sure to check that expiration date!
