Well, I think that there are enough people who go to that site who don't have access to gelato, or who might not buy nicer ice-cream on a regular basis, to justify this article. I mean, one of the prominent sponsors on the site is Pillsbury.

I didn't get the same sense of "eat your fucking twinkies" that you did, but I guess I can see what you're talking about. From my read, I got the sense that the writer was aiming this at people who were avoiding stabilizers simply because they'd heard that they're "not natural" or whatever, rather than on the basis of the taste of stabilized ice-cream vs. stabilizer-free ice-cream.
