		<description>Hello! I just wish to say that Alaska is a very dry state in some parts (I know because I live there.) One of the reasons we eat ice cream so much is because ice cream is a very moist dessert so we gain back the moister and some calories to keep us warm. Another reason is that we can get the ice cream home easier than warmer states :)</description>

		<description>The reason Alaska consumes the most ice cream than any other state is simple...ice cream keeps us warm inside our body....ice cream consists a lot of calories.... calories keep you warm...</description>

		<description>My first guess for state with most ice cream consumed per capita would have been Arizona.  Summers in Arizona get extremely boiling hot!  In fact, Phoenix has a normal July high of 102 degrees, and the temperature has even topped 120 before in Phoenix!</description>

		<description>I think it&#039;s because they are already so cold they don&#039;t have to worry about getting brain freeze. Plus ice cream is better in the winter. You can enjoy the full flavor of it.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m an Alaskan, and I love ice cream. We don&#039;t have this Turkey Hill up here, but we sure do love our ice cream. Maybe it has something to do with being used to the cold, because eating ice cream doesn&#039;t make me cold. Also, in a lot of the villages and smaller towns, there isn&#039;t much to do but eat, and what better to eat than ice cream.....and no, we don&#039;t live in igloos</description>

		<description>I would never had thought Alaska, but I guess when you&#039;re used to being cold, the ice cream doesn&#039;t make you colder!  My family eats ice cream all year round;that&#039;s one thing I could never give up!</description>

		<description>Is per capita determined by dividing the population by the amount of ice cream sold? How is ice cream defined? Does it include ice cream in its pure form as well as variations such as ice cream cakes? This just proves that a large populated state does not necessarily consume the most ice cream. Maybe in Alaska ice cream is one of the staples like bread and milk. But as long as I can get Turkey Hill at my local grocery I won&#039;t spend too much time worrying about Alaska.</description>

		<description>Not only does Turkey Hill produce the best tasting ice cream and dessert treat products to satisfy your stomach, but now they can also cater to and enrich your brian...I am learning new things each day with this blog.  And its interesting stuff I will remember and pass on.  And sure enough the researchers at Turkey Hill are right...after doing a little research of my own I was suprised and intrigued to find that each person consumes on average, 3 quarts oc ice cream a week!  Evolutionally it kind of makes sense because those animals living in the cold weather need a higher percentage of body fat to insulate them during the frigid cold (50-70 degrees below zero)and to sustain themselves for periods when food would eb scarce or hard to find.  They would thus crave higher density fatty foods...and humans as well, which are also animals, need to stay warm in the cold, so they crave the faty foods.  Evolutionally, those that survived the winter did so because they had strong instincts to satisfy their cravings for fatty rich foods, and those are the people around reproducing today!  
So Alaskans get the prize for eating the most ice cream, but every American can feel proud because Americans consume about 15 quarts (more than 13 liters) of ice cream per person per year—the most in the world.  Also you want to give a little credit to those from Maryland because Jacob Fussell of Baltimore, Maryland was the first to manufacture ice cream on a large scale.  This made ice cream prices drop so it was an affordable treat for everyone and made ice cream accessable to buy for many.  My props to Maryland for sure!</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not only does Turkey Hill produce the best tasting ice cream and dessert treat products to satisfy your stomach, but now they can also cater to and enrich your brian&#8230;I am learning new things each day with this blog.  And its interesting stuff I will remember and pass on.  And sure enough the researchers at Turkey Hill are right&#8230;after doing a little research of my own I was suprised and intrigued to find that each person consumes on average, 3 quarts oc ice cream a week!  Evolutionally it kind of makes sense because those animals living in the cold weather need a higher percentage of body fat to insulate them during the frigid cold (50-70 degrees below zero)and to sustain themselves for periods when food would eb scarce or hard to find.  They would thus crave higher density fatty foods&#8230;and humans as well, which are also animals, need to stay warm in the cold, so they crave the faty foods.  Evolutionally, those that survived the winter did so because they had strong instincts to satisfy their cravings for fatty rich foods, and those are the people around reproducing today!<br />

		<description>Of course Alaska would eat more ice cream because they can go outside and eat it and not worry about it melting.  They don&#039;t even need a freezer to stock it in just stick it outside their igloo.  The toy is real cute I bet my dad had one around 1915 but he didn&#039;t have any Turkey Hill Ice Cream to eat.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m surprised by Alaska like everybody else.  I would have expected the top state to also be one of the top producers, or to have the most brands.  Maybe the Alaskans are proudcing a really good brand we don&#039;t know about yet.  Somebody go to Alaska and see what brands and flavors are available up there.</description>

		<description>Love the little distraction, as you called it, he would certainly be a coversation piece as you were discussing Alaskas ice cream habit.  My take is regardless of the temperature ice cream warms you heart and soul and you feel good.  That is why they eat lots of ice cream in Alaska and the other 49 states.  I live in Maryland and we also eat our share of ice cream and of course Crabs!!!</description>

		<description>I guessed Alaska and I was right!  I beleive ice cream is comfort food.  You can do alot with it and it always makes you feel good.  I figured with the dark winters and the cold they would need the comfort of ice cream more then anybody!  I also beleive ice cream taste better when it&#039;s cold!</description>

		<description>When I was in grade school, which was a long time ago, there was a picture of a boy eating ice cream and a caption stating that eating cold ice cream on a hot summer day actually makes you hotter.  Maybe they eat ice cream in Alaska to stay warm.</description>

		<description>Love the tin toy ice cream bike!  I just wrote about that in a comment last week.  In my Alabama neighborhood (early 1950s) the vendor wore an all white uniform and a white hat with a black visor.  An ice cream bar cost 7-cents back then.</description>

		<description>i guessed PA, due to all the ice cream producers there, such as TH, breyers, and that other company whose name starts with B that i forget at the moment.  PA consumes more pretzels than any other state i believe, soft and hard, with many producers in the Lancaster county area.  pretzels go great with ice cream of course.

those older readers from the cherry hill, nj, area will fondly recall the (free) basket of stick pretzels on every table at the old Holly Ravine Farm&#039;s Cow Tail Bar.  their &#039;kitchen sink&#039; sundae was something like 20 scoops!  lots of ice cream consumed there.</description>

		<description>Ah !! I&#039;m sure it&#039;s in the winter that Alaska&#039;s  eat the most ice cream just
to warm up.   AHHH The good old days.  I remember 10 cents a dip. That is where my habit of having ice cream every day started . This guy must be a phillies player ( winter job ), if not he IS wearing his father&#039;s uniform because he looks too young  to be selling Ice Cream ( child labor law you know ) Plus two things I don&#039;t see is a vender&#039;s license on his cart or a license plate ( because it is a moving vehicles ). where is the  T. H. label ??? As being old ( 72 ) I like old looking things &amp;  would gladly receive it. ( Is this convincing ? )</description>

		<description>They probably eat more ice cream because they can really stock up when it&#039;s on sale. No need for a freezer!</description>

		<description>I think it makes sense. They are cold all year long so they would eat this product all year long. Those of us that have various seasons tend to shy away from cold food in the winter and hot food in the summer - thus more ice cream in Alaska.</description>

		<description>Maybe they eat more ice cream in Alaska --- because they&#039;re really, really tired of baked Alaska desserts??
Or maybe they know they can burn off the calories with lots of outdoor exercise?
I&#039;m in the southern part of the U.S., but mainly serve ice cream, in the hot summer months.</description>

		<description>I have no idea why Alaska would be the biggest consuming state. Maybe the fat keeps them warm? Or maybe they just know a good thing when they eat it. We eat ice cream year round. Regardless if its winter,spring or fall. If its okay that Alaskan&#039;s do it, in such cold conditions, so can we.</description>
