I’m not gonna argue with that. it is a classic american dessert. (especially together. A 4th of July staple if ever there was one.)
But, just for the record… because I find the history of icecream intriguing…
one of the earlier recordings of an ice cream recipe (and the salty-ice method of making it,) comes from a medical text written by a Syrian historian in the 1300’s.
Apples, too, weren’t native to America and brought over by colonists (though, the Ottoman empire had apple pies, too. And probably ice cream. One wonders if they were enlightened enough to put them together…)
I’d happily take him out for ice cream. And give him my 43 cents (inflation is a removed,)
“Do you want to know what I think about Israel.”
“Of course!”
“Okay. Tell your goons not to shoot me; so I can express it properly.”
“uh…”
“The only way to fully express my feelings on your support for Israel, is to punch you in the face.”
“…”
“Try the Swedish garden party. It’s amazing.”
(Goddammit this reminds me that Izzy’s Ice cream didn’t survive the pandemic. Their Swedish Garden Party was amazing. Vanilla ice cream with lingonberry jam and ginger snap cookies.)
It’s a start. Only took 3 years to get him out of hiding. Now stop having him eat ice cream in public, it makes him look like an old grandpa.
He…is… an old grandpa? Also, I’m assuming he likes icecream.
(what kinda monster doesn’t like ice cream?)
In ww2 the U.S. navy had a ship that just made and delivered ice cream to the fighting boats. Ice cream is as american as apple pie!

Almost nothing “American”‘is from America, just a part of the national identity.
That is true. Everywhere he goes he makes a point of trying local ice cream.
