Of course you knew that. But you might not have known that the United States is number two worldwide in per capita ice cream consumption. That’s right, we’re second. The good news is, we’re waaaay behind the number one country. That’s good news because if we want to take over the top spot, we’ll all need to eat a lot more ice cream to get there.
Below is a list of the top ice cream eating countries. Take note: we really should be watching out for Australia.
COUNTRY LITERS PER CAPITA
New Zealand 26.3
United States 18.7
Australia 17.8
Finland 13.9
Sweden 11.9
Canada 9.5
Italy 9.2
Ireland 9.0
Denmark 8.7
United Kingdom 7.7
TODAY’S PRIZE: Two fun ice cream magnets (a soft serve cone and an ice cream sundae). Stick ‘em on your fridge. Stick ‘em on your car. Stick ‘em wherever they’ll stick. Except for the neighbors’ car…unless they really like ice cream.

If you’ve got a technical question about the ice cream making process or some other inquiry about the nuances of America’s favorite treat, chances are Ernie has the answer. He might not be able to answer all questions, but he’ll try his best and some may be featured on the Ice Cream Journal.
I know I’ll be helping the stats because I eat ice cream every day.
I do my part.
So what exactly are the numbers… 18.7 million people , million gallons etc?????? Wow though New Zealand is number one. Very intresting. Thanks for the tidbit But I really would like to know what the numbers stand for. THanks
Looking forward to Southern Lemon Pie
Ice Cream coming again. It is soooooo
delicious.
Thanks for the recipes. I like Ice Cream
all kinds of ways!
I was wondering where the stats came from? Did someone actually record all the consumption of ice cream within a year? I think that it is deff “cool” that we are number 2..
This is the wrong comment to make here (it certainly won’t help me win a prize), but it would be interesting to match this list with the per capita rates of diabetes in each of those countries. Hopefully there wouldn’t be any correlation, especially since I am diabetic and love ice cream.
Hard to believe. I thought my contribution alone would put us #1.
LET’S START BOOSTING UP THOSE NUMBERS!
Well now, if this is truly the case… I will have to step up to the plate and eat MORE ice cream. I mean, hey- we all have to do our part. Go USA!!!
Good catch Charity. The numbers are “liters per capita” (we’ll make the change to the entry).
Let’s join together and fight the delicious fight by eating more icecream. Go USA Go.
I have to agree to Nancy Z G’s post. Southern Lemon Pie was just so gooood! Very Tastey indeed. Brought back memories of my Mommas’ pies when I was young.
I do my part by eating ice cream almost every day. However, portion size is key to keeping down my weight. Use a small bowl and it will look like more. Moderation is important. If more people ate even small portions of Turkey Hill ice cream every day, we’d all be happier. It will be hard to catch New Zealand, though.
If YOU LOVE Vanilla
There is nothing plain about Vanilla. In fact, if you love Vanilla, you are actually a colorful, dramatic risk taker who relies more on intuition than logic. Emotionally expressive and idealistic, you tend to set high goals for yourself, and push yourself to meet and exceed them. On the romantic front, you tend to rely on secure romantic relationships that fulfill your emotional needs while working toward future objectives.
Romantic Compatibility: You are most romantically compatible with those who prefer Rocky Road.
Let’s get eating!
I do more than my share of ice cream consumption..glad to help out.
I do my share! I eat ice cream everyday, more than once a day! and i’m getting fat to prove it!
Bring on the hot fudge & wet walnuts!!!
YUM YUM EAT-EM UP!!!
Those Brits are too thin…now we know why…they haven’t tasted Turkey Hill ice cream…I don’t dare buy any other brand in our home…let’s get a Turkey Hill store over to the UK…..FAST!
MMMmmmmMMMM love me some ice cream!! Apparently they didn’t pool my family!
I love ice cream and Turkey has the best variety of flavors ever. Recently, I was told to cut out my ice cream and loose 20 pounds. I couldn’t do that, but I did change over to frozen yogurt and lost 9 pounds in a month. Thank you for the variety of flavors.
Thanks for the calendar and coupons.
If you would sell Turkey Hill worldwide the stats would skyrocket..
Hmmm, I wonder if they have kiwi ice cream in New Zealand?
There’s no way we can be #2, not with the amount of ice cream I ‘force’ myself to eat. Someone has obviously tampered with the data and skewed the results to gain this highly prestigious position.
it’s really hard to believe the US is not first in ice cream..i mean we really do eat alot of it..especially at my house. tan just loves it
I am willing to do my part to eat a lot more ice cream so we can be number 1!!
I’ll be doing my part and eating more to bring us up to number one!
USA USA USA!
wow that is a lot of ice cream..we have it every night in our house..Hubby always has seconds too..
I think we should have the ice cream olympics..
Hey what are the chances of an Olympic team being formed to help the USA get that #1 spot? Just in case I’ll go start training now, ice cream here I come!!!!!
The way my family eats ice cream we should be #1 in no time.
Why not hold a timed ice cream eating contest similar to the one they do for hot dogs or other foods! Actually,I thought Italy would be further up the list with its Gelato.
We live on a Dairy Farm and love to eat ice cream. We try to use our own milk to make homeade ice cream every now and then. However, nothing compares to Turkey Hill Ice Cream. That is all we buy!
I can’t believe USA isn’t No.1, the way Americans over-indulge in everything. T. Hill, thanks for the calender!!
Interesting, because at this moment according to the population clock… the estimated resident population of New Zealand is 4,250,150 and for the United States it is 303,615,130. So, not every United States resident is eating their share of ice cream!!!!
I don’t know if those figures are correct. Maybe they haven’t gotten my grocery receipts yet for ice cream. We have 6 kids and Ice Cream is a must for my freezer. Have you ever had a 1 year old keep going eh eh eh at the freezer after having ice cream for the 1st time?Very fun. Merry Christmas.
I’m sure if I eat 5 gallons of Ice Cream a day we’ll catch up to New Zealand.
Love your ice cream and your calendar.
Vanilla Bean is my favorite!
Considering that both New Zealand and Australia are warm weather climates, I think that the USA does well to place in the top three — especially with all of this wintry weather we’ve been having in the Northeast! Those 25 degree temperatures don’t stop us in Boston from eating our fair share of Turkey Hill!
I do my part too!!
If you include gelato, etc., are the percentages per capita still the same? No need to respond, just thought that made Italy higher on the list.
Just DON’T put the magnets on a friend’s computer! They’d be fun on a refrigerator though.
I’m surprised not to find my onetime home of Jamaica in the top 10–based on my fond Foreign Service memories (from the 1980s), when my now-brother-in-law’s British mother made the best soursop ice cream I’ve ever tasted (among many local flavors, I regret to say, that never seemed to thrive elsewhere)–”Bunty” (Ursula) later sold the business but the memories certainly survive! Jamaica, soon come …
We have nothing to fear from the Aussies. We will continue to out eat them any day
i am up to twice a day bowls of cherry vanilla.i am trying,
wait ’til tell my teenagers it will be their patriotic “duty” to scarf down a second bowl of ice cream every night! Just so the USA can beat NZ. Think they’ll mind?
anyone else notice that the majority of those countries are in mostly cold weather climates? don’t folks in warm countries eat ice cream to cool off?
Again, the grand prize would be of great influence for our family to do our part…
if TH is in lancaster county, PA, in the Eastern time zone, why are the times posted on this blog as if we’re in the Atlantic time zone?
Ice cream is great anytime of the day. It makes a great breakfast food.
who knew that new zealand and australia consumed so much ice cream. it is news to me.
Wonder why New Zealand eats the most?
wow! I would’ve guessed the US would’ve had the highest number.
have been eating ice cream forever and will coninue to do so till i`m gone hope it helps raise are numbers
USA! USA! USA!
This is very interesting considering “how fat” Americans are. Oh well I will still eat my ice cream. Let’s make the US #1.
I want to thank Turkey Hill for being so great to all the children and donating ice cream to the 2 Children homes in my area.Thank you so much.You have group of great folks there.We still eat it all the time and look forward to new flavors.We always tell people to try Turkry Hill. If I see someone in store trying to decide what ice cream to buy I tell them about Turkey Hill and if I have an extra coupon I offer it just to help them along with their choice of ice cream.Thank you again.
where’s turkey hill low carb ice cream???? can’t find it anywhere’s anymore!!!!
I do my part – especially in the winter…go figure!!!
We’ll have to have a bit of ice cream tonight instead of holiday cookies.
Turkey Hill ice cream is delicious – love it!
Turkey Hill ice cream is delicious – I love it!
If everyone ate as much ice cream as I do I’m sure we’d be well past New Zealand.
I can literally count on one hand the number of days in the past 12 years at least the number of days I’ve NOT had a mug of ice cream at night and most of those were the births of my children.
chocolate peanut butter ice cream – - what else would you need??
Hi,
Although it is cold outside my husband and I still have our nightly ice cream. My husband likes anything with fruit like strawberries, I am a coffee ice cream person. I have a suggestion for a new ice cream–I love blueberries and cream.
Turkey Hill Ice Cream makes me
smile…a lot!
Althought is it cold outside my husband and I still enjoy our ice cream treats during television time. I was wondering if there would ever be an ice cream with blueberries and cream, my favorite.
Hope so!!!!!
Wow! If NZ is that far ahead of us, how much ice cream does the average person eat in a day?
Interesting statistics ! If I had to guess why New Zealand eats more ice cream it would be that there isn’t as much to do there, so they eat more. Just a guess!
Being #2 isn’t soooooo bad. We all just need to eat more “ICE CREAM”. So grab your favorite flavor & a spoon. Bet you’re smiling!!!!!!!
My family would have no problem eating more to grab the #1 spot.
IT WOULD BE FANTASTIC TO SEE THE
COCONUT CREME PIE AND THE FRIED
ICE CREAM BACK!!!!!!
P.S. EVERYONE START EATING MORE ICE
CREAM. THE U.S.A.NEEDS TO BE #1….
I’m surprised we aren’t #1.
Dawn, I think both Fried Ice Cream and Coconut Creme Pie are on the limited edition slate for 2008.
Peaches and Cream must be good. It’s leading the poll. I was never able to find it this past year- maybe that’s why.
I must be the King of New Zealand!
Diane, blueberries and cream sounds like it would make a great flavor.
It makes sense that New Zealand is so high… They have so much farm land!
I’m shocked that Canada is so low. I must be carrying it all on my back! lol
I would love to be today’s ice cream winner.
Ill help try to help the US to first…Yummy in my tummy.
I’d like to include Chocolate Cherry Cordial Frozen Yogurt on the list of favorite flavors….. It’s a whole, delicious sundae straight out of the container!
Grandchildren would really like those magnets to play with! It isn’t a holiday unless theirs Ice Cream-Turkey Hill prefered!
Let’s get behind the voting for Southern Lemon Pie Ice Cream.
There is always room for ice cream!!!
Love ice cream
makes my mouth water, Turkey Hill is so good,
I try to do my part. I have some ice cream almost every day. I would love to see Death by Chocolate back as a limited edition ice cream.
Thank you for this opportunity! Our family of six is almost keeping you in business ourselves—–we all eat Turkey Hill ice cream daily.
I would like to help our great nation become #1!!!
It’s nice to see so many people are willing to do their part to make America the NUMBER ONE ice cream eating nation in the world. If you keep eating ice cream, we’ll certainly help out by continuting to make it!!
Wow, I’d have thought we were first. Guess I’ll have to start eating more Turkey Hill, and help move us up!
Shocking statistics — who knew?!?
I tend to think of New Zealand and Australia as “most like” the US in culture. The big surprise though, is Finland placing so high!
I’ve been to Finland three times and they too love ice cream [jaatelo]. We are eating Turkey Hill to move the USA up but it will be hard to beat New Zealand. Love the cookies n cream. My husband tries everything!
I CAN’T BELIEVE WE’RE NOT #1!!!!!!!!!!
New Zealand? Huh, who’d a thunk?
Those Australians are tricky folks.
And this American, living in MA, but raised in Lancaster, PA loves her Turkey Hill Ice Cream!!
What are those stats? Gallons per person per year? I must have missed that.
We help the stats, no doubt. Wow, New Zealanders can really put it away!
Do kangaroos like ice cream?
Who in the USA is not doing their part? With low calorie / fat free ice cream, that tastes VERY VERY good, there is no excuse …… start eating ice cream every day.
I bet if we all try really, really hard (and that’s easy to do with Turkey Hill ice cream!) we can be # 1 next year! Yeah!!!
Ice cream, who needs it? I do, I do. I eat Turkey Hill almost every night. TV wouldn’t be the same without it. I don’t think I’ve ever met a person who said they didn’t like ice cream. Not only that, my dogs are addicted. Every night after their dinner they get a scoop of frozen yogurt.
…”on the 4th day of ice cream turkey hill gave to me 4 ice cream magnets, 3 spaghetti ice cream makers, 2 cuisipro ice cream sandwich makers and the book “everybody loves ice cream”"….
How did New Zealand become #1 in consuming ice cream??
It would be great to compare ice cream recipes.
I wonder what the favorite flavor in New Zealand is.
The USA is way up there! We all love Turkey Hill. Somebody has to do it!!
I would love to win today’s prize-I kind of collect fridge magnets and those that remind me of Turkey Hill Ice Cream??? (Not that I need prompting!) What could be better?
Coffee has a flavor that some prefer hot
But Turkey Hill Coffee Ice Cream is what I like a lot!
,
Eat more Ice Cream –
especially Turkey Hill!
I will increase my intake of the Moose Tracks Lite….It is the best !!!!
Hubby says Rocky Road is the best…we are now in an all out war….
We should be Number 1.
Because we are all eating Turkey Hill Ice Cream. The Best!!
Hmmmm! I’ll take the duetto turkey hill ice cream. The mango and vanilla is great…..
I’m not surprised that so many ‘cold’ countries are high on the list. I tend to eat more ice cream during the cold winter months up here in New England!
As long as Turkey Hill makes ice cream, my family will do its part to push the USA into 1st place.
Interesting that cold countries like Finland are way up there in consumption
Myself and my family all love turkey hill ice cream. It rocks.
eat a large bowl of great tasting ice cream.
Wow I would have thought USA would have beat all odds!! I can’t believe your giving away magnets!!! That’s right up my alley!! I have one TH magnet at the moment, and I’d love to start a collection. Ice Cream & Nursing is my passion. My patients are always excited for their ice cream treat after dinner!! TH rocks!! Keep up the creative work! And how about those TH ice cream cakes for the future!!
Thats OK. More ice cream for me!!
You have to be an alien if you don’t love ice cream, especially delicious Turkey Hill ice crem!
New Zealand is awesome, flight of the conchords!
I guess I just gotta eat more ice cream….we should be #1 !!!!!
Another reason to love the holidays – Turkey Hill Egg Nog Ice Cream!!!
I’m floored!!! I would never have thought New Zealanders would eat more ice cream then people in the good ole USA! I’ll just have to pump up my consumption!
I am certainly helping with the ice cream consumption – I am soooo faithful to Turkey Hill butter pecan – my absolute favorite!
Whoa look at New Zealand!
I have been doing my best to try to keep our stats up, I don’t think australia is much of a threat, come on people , let’s get eating and thanks turkey hill for giving us a lot to choose from,Blessings
i been doing my part in keeping the USA in 2nd place in the ice cream eating catergory. Really like the Butter Peacn by Turkey Hill
Really enjoy the Turkey Hill Butter Pecan ice cream.
All right, where’s the ice cream! Let’s get to work to be #1
You sream, the WORLD screams, we all scream for ice cream, Turkey Hill that is!
My favorite way to eat ice cream is on the front porch watching fire flys
I’m obviously waaaaaay delinquent here….
Wow !! I would never believe that we were not first !!We eat alot of ice cream in our house but I’m sure my kids would happily eat more if allowed.
I’m going to Europe for the holidays. Much as I’ll miss my favorite, I’m NOT sharing our Turkey Hill!!
you scream,I scream, we all scream for ice cream never ever stop making it.as long as there are cows there will be milk, as long as there is milk my husband will have a job.he drives the tank trucks that bring it to the dairy to make the ice cream.so keep on making the ice cream Turkey Hill
Hooray for New Zealand. Happy to see we are not number 1.
Wayne Hoffman
I will try to help make the USA #1 in ice cream consumption!
Go Usa Go !!! Eat more Ice Cream !!!!!
New Zealand is not a melting pot as the United States. Therefore it will difficult for the US to overtake New Zealand.
New Years Resolution:
Eat More Ice Cream!
hummmm both New Zealand and Australia have Christmas in the Summer …. of course they have an advantage with all the parties going on …. We better get Christmas in July going here in the USA so we have BIG gatherings to eat more ice cream!!!!
Very good for the states.
Who knew New Zealanders could eat so much ice cream! What is the population of New Zealand anyway?
You’d think the southern hemisphere would have more countries represented. Nothing like ice cream on a hot day.
Your Fried Ice Cream is the best. I love it! Please keep it on the market.
I don’t feel so guilty eating so much ice cream now, we’re not #1….I’ll do my part to remediate the situation! Make Cocconut Creme Pie a full-time flavor & I’ll have no problem. 7.6 liters x __ (how many people in the US??)…gotta go & start eating!
I scream,
You scream,
We all scream for Turkey Hill ice cream.
I am moving to New Zealand. They have their act in order!
New Zealand? Come on. What’s its population, anyhow. I know I’m doing my part to up the consumption.
Well I better start eating more Ice Cream because the USA should always be #1 in everything !!
do you know which flavor is the best seller in new zealand??
Great source of bone strenghtening
calcium. Just another reason why we
should eat more ice cream.
Well, we all will have to start eating more ice cream. We can’t be beat out by Australia! Happy Eating everyone!
we’re doing are part to push up those stats. Wonder if they count all the varied ways we eat icecream … like the individual serve portions purchased anywhere from sports events to school vending machines.
I wonder what they put in the ice cream in NZ!!
I like anything with chocolate, cookies and cream and coffee flavor!
What’s with New Zealand, can hardly believe they could be so far ahead on ice cream.
Your galloping red cow is funny. Today is my 65th birthday, but we didn’t have any ice cream in the house. It would be fun to win some.
Barbara K.
Let’s all do our part in making US number 1.
Premium ice cream in all sorts of flavors
Coffee and chocolate are two that I savor
Count on rum raisin to help bring some zing
These are a few of my favorite things
Turkey Hill has caused quite the “commotion”
Giant fudge ripples that should be in an ocean,
Party cake frosting is fit for a king,
These are a few of my favorite things
Delicious Duettos in lemon and mango
Scruptious sherbet in the form of a rainbow
Frozen yogurt selections that make my mouth sing
These are a few of my favorite things
When the pants fit
A little too tight
And I’m feeling sad,
I just turn to Skinny Minty,
Indulge in the taste
And then I don’t feeeeeel,
So bad!
Let’s have a ice cream party.
I eat at least a gallon a week.
Well I am doing my part to help us become number one.
I will do what I can to get us to #1. I hope “ice cream” includes yogurt and sherbert? Thanks again for the great job you are doing.
I almost feel like I’m back in Venice when I’m eating your Lemon Duetto!
I just love the ease and the satisfaction that I receive from a simple bowl of ice cream!
turkey hill is so good
YES , WE IN THE GOOD OLE USA DO LOVE ICE CREAM …MY HUSBAND CAN PROVE THAT FACT BY THE FACT THAT I HAVE TO BUY AND HIDE SEVERAL HALF GALLONS OF TURKEY HILL AND HIDE MORE THAN TWO OF THEM TO EVEN GET A FEW SCOOPS MYSELF! HIS PANTS SIZE HAS INCREASED AND I GUESS ITS GOOD FOR ME , CAUSE MINE HASN’T!!!!but what is up with new zealand …how could they be so far ahead of us in ice cream consumption??? do they have alot of cows there or what??????????? happy holidays ! don’t forget the egg nog flavor !!! it rocks elizabeth
so good
I like peppermint when it’s cold outside.
Let’s get eating!
Come on USA let’s eat more ice cream! We want to be #1.
18 liters… is that all? I am waaaay above average!
I can’t believe USA is not tops in the survey. Let’s retake that survey, it must be wrong. I love the Turkey Hill Cones also, especially the vanilla ones. My freezer is never without two kinds of Turkey Hill ice cream in it. Go, Go, Go USA – eat more ice cream.
Don’t export Turkey Hill to Australia. They might beat the U.S. then.
Regretfully, since Coconut Creme Pie is not a regular flavor I purchased Original Vanilla and Butter Pecan today. Although it was delicious and I really enjoyed both of them along with my Homemade Chocolate Pound Cake and my Coconut Pineapple layer cake I would be on Cloud 9 right about now if I had some Coconut Creme Pie.
Fun, I love food magnets!!!
Verrry interesting?
I wonder why New Zealand, a country smaller than US can eat so much more ice cream?
If everyone ate Turkey Hill, I am sure the United States would be the number one consumers!
NEW ZEALAND MAYBE #1 IN ICE CREAM EATING COUNTRY “BUT” TURKEY HILL IS THE REAL #1
ALL OVER THE WORLD, IN MY BOOK!
I bet we would be #1 if everyone had a pint of Turkey Hill! Thanks for making the most delicious ice cream on the planet.
Interesting stats. I shared them with my husband and we were both surprised.
Ice cream is our favorite dessert.
My sisters firend Beth had a party two summers ago when she moved to a new home in the country. She invited all the neighbors over for an old fashioned ice cream social (& bbq). It was such a hit, she had old friends there, made new friends, and let everyone see their new home in the country. She decorated for the party with all kinds of americana signs of the good old days. Her kitchen was set up like a general store, and she even had penny candy. She provided the pennies too! But for the older people there, it was quite a treat they ordered from the counter just like they did when they were kids. The younger people just giggled and made their own sundaes. The toppings you pick tell a lot about a person…
I eat ice cream every evening and so does my Scottie Dog!
Ice Cream ! Ice Cream ! We all love our Ice Cream. With the flavors you have, it won’t be long before the good old U.S. of A. is on top. Best ice cream ever!!!
I love ice cream – would love to have the magnets.
If there were a poll of the top ice cream eating households in the USA, mine would be in the top 10% !
Being a heart patient who has ice cream every evening, I prefer the the low and no fat varities. Used to be a Healthy Choice purchaser but they no longer make ice cream; I guess Turkey Hill put them out of business in our area.
I love magnets – and I definitely need some for my new fridge. Please enter me!!
i love moose tracs ice cream. MMM GIMMY MORE GIMMY MORE
I LOVE MOOSE TRACKS ICE CREAM. MMM GIMMY MORE GIMMY MORE???!!!!!>>>>>>
I will gladly eat more ice cream to become number one Let’s go
Guess we’ll have to step up the ice cream consumption here, lol!
I love magnets. Bring on the ice cream with BAILEYS, way to go.
Good morning Between my wife and myself we should set up a good race to catch New Zeland We love the Turkey Hill Was wondering if you ever thought about doing pop sickles I do like them but have to get another brand Have a nice holliday to every one at Turkey Hill
They must eat ice cream w/ every meal in New Zealand.
I will try much harder.
I thought for sure the U.S. would be #1?? Interesting statistics.
My husband eats enough ice cream to put us over the top 8:)
New Zealand…who would have thought?
My husband had a bowl of Turkey Hill every day after his lunch. Turkey Hill is his brand of choice.
We love our nightly dish of ice cream…any flavor.
Oops, I said HAD but meant HAS. He is still alive and kicking and would not miss his lunch dessert of Turkey Hill!
Unfortunately, the U.S. is also very high (if not #1) in obsesity. But us ice cream devotees can do our part to raise our ranking by indulging in lighter Turkey Hill ice cream and eating smaller portions. Go USA!
I love ice cream but when you have diabetes, ice cream is a wonderful rare treat. My husband makes up for what I can’t eat. He is in another zone when he eats ice cream. Loves Turkey Hill!!!
Those magnets would look very nice on frig. with my other collection of magnets.
I do my part too eat a lot of ice cream!
I wonder why New Zealand, of all countries consumes so much ice cream? That is interesting. I know my family and especially my Siberian Husky are doing our part in helping USA try to take over the number 1 spot!
Nevermind watching Australia, lets just eat more ice cream and overtake New Zealand.
I’ll Help! I’ll Help!!!
i love eating ice cream with whipped cream on top.
Australia will not pass us as we’ll be busy passing New Zealand!
I can’t believe we’re number 2! I always thought the US ate the most ice cream per capita.
Give me butter brickle and I can move up the U.S. statistics real quick!!
I am surprised that we are No 2. My family purchases 3 half gallons a week.
We can do it. EAT more Turkey Hill and beat New Zealand! Go USA
Well,them New Zealand’s,”sure must love eating ice-cream.”
I know with the right amount of determination and hot fudge sauce we can be number 1.
We will increase our consumption to pass the Kiwis
I wonder what the stats are on New Zealand’s obesity rate?
I love the bits of trivia I learn about ice cream…keep up the good work.
It is nice to read comments from all those ice cream lovers. Janice thanks for the tip now I will look for a Rocky Road lover for my Vanilla loving son! Now I think I’ll have some vanilla tofortify my search. Is it too early for ice cream? It must be afternoon somewhere.USA#1
I’m known by close friends and acquaintances for LOVING ice cream. In fact, our friends were visiting the other night with their son and his girlfriend that had never been to PA before. They introduced me to her like this: “This is Sherry, she loves ice cream!”
I am surprised we are number 2. I have always done more than my share to make us number 1.
Hi everyone! Just had a big bowl of Turkey Hill Black Cherry Ice Cream. Going for seconds, and maybe thirds. Hope there is enough. I just love it.
…can’t understand second place…and I thought my husband held the world record!!
Thanks for the information about the liters WOW!!!!
Ok, I think for the good of our country I will have to eat lots of ice cream today!
its never too cold for ice cream -just heat up a shot of brandy & pour over vanilla ice cream
My husband helped make the stats. He has ice cream every night, whether it be in a dish or a milkshake. I’m sure he’ll enjoy helping to raise the stats.
Ice Cream is my most favorite dessert but I’m glad to hear for healthy reasons that the U.S. isn’t the top consumer.
I,ve tried other ice creams and by far turkey hill is the BEST!!!!!. I really enjoy it. I never knew that you had pumpkin flavor.That,s my favorite.
We can always count on Turkey Hill
to top off a holiday meal with one of
their delicious flavors. It’s a good
idea to keep several on hand to give
guests a choice…which is always hard,
since all are favorites of one of the
attendees!
Unlike a lot of you, I don’t eat ice cream every day. But when I do indulge, it’s Turkey Hill and it’s probably butter pecan and probably a large bowl. So I am doing my part!
For a truly impressive dessert for Christmas, make a buche de noel (Christmas log cake), but substitute slightly softened vanilla (original or bean) Turkey Hill ice cream instead of the whipped cream. Reroll cake and quickly frost it w/ chocolate frosting. Pop into the freezer until serving time.
TO ALL TURKEY HILL EMPLOYEES,MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS.
This is NOT a surprise! Let’s all buy Turkey Hill ice cream and make those stats soar!
Blessings for Happy “Holy”days!
Ice cream, it is not just for dessert anymore, breakfast coffee is now my new use for ice cream.
boy what is the population of New ZEaland compared to the us? I would think we would have more people and would eat more. Well I guess that means more ice cream for this household.
c’mon guys-#2? let’s eat more ice cream!
#2? c’mon guys , let’s eat more ice cream-preferably chocolate!
Love that Turkey Hill ice cream. We have a bowl every night and still can’t decide which one is our favorite.
Interesting stats. Ok, Don-I laughed at your idea of substituting chocolate for coconut(from a previous entry) and calling them “mud balls!!”
Did you ever hear of a vegetarian diet? My daughters are on an ice cream diet. If it were up to them, they would eat it for every meal and every dessert!! They just can’t get enough!
Funny,isn’t it, that the cold areas eat more ice cream?
Looks like the Americans are going to have to eat some more ice cream!!!!!!
Time to up our stats!!!
As the commercial used to say “we’re number 2 so we try harder”. By reading all the blogs, it sounds like everyone is willing to try harder to eat more TH ice cream to become #1. Not a problem…glad to hep out!
I will be the #1 cheerleader for the USA.. Go team, eat more ice cream
Ice cream is my absolute favorite dessert.
Hard to believe USA is #2!! Think we should have a recount!!!
The best kind of party is an ice cream sundae party. We used to have them every so often at one place I worked & it was always a hit.
New Zealand number 1. Who would have thought. We all need to eat lots more Turkey Hill to catch up. My family does its part. We eat Ice Cream every day.
ice cream is my official diet!!!
come on people we need to start eating more ice cream
Grab a spoon and dig in.
I’ll enjoy every minute of eating my way to #1
I knew there must be a reason (besides Peter Jackson) we like New Zealanders so much!
The more I read the blog the more hungrey I get .I am going for a bowl of ice cream I can’t take it any more!
now this is be the kind of challange i can get behind!!!! bring ‘em on
I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t like ice cream. With all the possible flavors there has to be a likeable one for everyone. I like it plain in a dish so I can whip it up to make it like frozen custard.
what a cool idea
I’m going to have an extra scoop so Australia doesn’t pass us. NZ has an advantage over us since I don’t think they have winters which slow us down. No too many buy ice cream at ski resorts
New Zealand’s numbers have to be wrong. Somebody’s not telling the truth.
They can’t blame my family because we are #2. We would eat more except we are fat enough already.
Prezels and ice cream, that’s a good combination. But, come to think about it, what isn’t the greater at the end of a meal than eating Turkey Hill ice cream!
Bet you can’t think of something better than Turkey Hill Ice Cream!
I think that ice cream is great no matter flavor, although everyone has thier fav’s, no matter what topping, ie.. chocolate chrunchies and strawberry syrup, my fav, or even how it’s eaten, cone or cup, driipping down your hand, or even a drop on your shirt, it’s always fun especially when you enjoy it with someone, but sometimes more fun alone so can totally pig out.
I too believe that no day is complete without at least one serving of ice cream – just finished bowl # 2!!!
It’s time to beat New Zealand, eat more ice cream today!
I knew ice cream before Turkey Hill, but now I REALLY know ice cream. Thanks for all you do to keep up a beloved tradition.
We raise our flags for all of our special events, lets raise our spoons to Turkey Hill Ice Cream, together we eat, divided we diet! Go Turkey Hill, GO!!!
How much more do we need to eat to get a bigger lead on Australia???????
My family does their part to help that survey……winning ice cream for a year will definently help!
I’m willing to do my part to help make America #1!
Ice cream makes everyone happy!
I cannot believe we aren’t the #1 eaters of ice cream. I must be laying down on the job.
I think the e-cone is fab.
What about Turkey Hill Orange Sherbert. A scoop with Vanilla ice cream is soooo refreshing and delicious.
I do my part.
I am looking forward to being a possible winner of 52 weeks of ice cream – Happy New Year!
FACT: TURKEY HILL LOVES ME, AN AMERICAN
FACT: THEY WANT ME TO BE A GRAND PRIZE WINNER
FICTION: I AM A HOPELESS DREAMER
Turkey Hill “The best ice cream and the only one for me” Yum Yum….
I’m enjoying a bowl of Fudge Ripple ice cream right now, just after finishing Christmas Eve dinner. Mmmmmm.
My favorite dessert is a combination of two Turkey Hill ice creams: first a huge glob of Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup, followed by an equal portion of Tin Roof Sunday. That’s the BEST!
Hope those ice cream bowls are big enough.
How is it calculated. are all included, babies, seniors,ect?????? I think we really eat more then them.
