e d a m e m o H m a e r C Ice By Emily Pazel
There’s just something about a yummy, frozen ice cream treat on a warm, sunny day that makes life a little sweeter. Whether you have it on a stick or in a cone, have way too many scoops of it in a bowl or use it as a topping to balance out the richness of a favorite dessert, ice cream is certainly one of our favorite treats. In fact, according to icecreamhistory.net, Americans are the largest consumers of ice cream in the world, with the average person eating around 48 pints of ice cream per year. While vanilla, chocolate and strawberry are the most common flavors of ice cream found in the grocery store or ice cream shop, it can come in many different flavors, including—strangely enough—a hot dog flavor that originated out of Arizona. So, how do you enjoy eating your ice cream? How about having it on a warm, fudge brownie that slowly melts and creates a delicious creamy topping. However you enjoy your ice cream—different flavors and all—is unique to you. Luckily for us, there’s an entire national holiday on July 18 to celebrate ice cream, so be sure to grab a tasty frozen treat and treat yourself! 40 |
