TRIVIA MONDAY AND THE VINTAGE ICE CREAM SIGN
Posted by: Turkey Hill Team
It’s time for another round of trivia! This time, we promise there’s no tricky math questions. There was one last week that tripped up some people, including a few here at the Dairy.
Below are five ice cream-related trivia questions. You can use the internet to find the answers, but not all of these questions will be easy! Once you’ve got the answers (or think you do), email your answers via the Ask Ernie link in the right hand sidebar or send them to icecreamjournal@gmail.com by the end of the day on Thursday, July 16. We’ll choose one person with the correct answers at random to receive this week’s trivia prize.
1. In what year did Turkey Hill become Pennsylvania’s number one selling ice cream brand?
2. What’s the difference between sorbet and sherbet?
3. What’s the second most abundant ingredient in ice cream?
4. In what year was the U.S. Navy’s “Ice Cream Ship” commissioned?
5. What is the Ice Cream Journal’s “sister blog?”
TRIVIA PRIZE: Answer all of the above questions correctly and send them to icecreamjournal@gmail.com by the end of the day on Thursday, July 16 and you’ll be entered the really cool vintage ice cream sign pictured on the right. It’s perfect for adding a little personality to your kitchen or on your freezer! If you’d like to buy one for yourself, you can purchase one here.
——————————————–
Throughout National Ice Cream Month, we’re continuing to give away two free containers of ice cream to one comment chosen at random from each blog entry. The winners for the past few entries are “helen g b,” “Mary,” “Thomas,” “Linda F,” and “Karen.” Good luck to everyone in the future and keep those comments coming!

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 love ice cream, especially Turkey Hill. During the holiday season I eat a lot of Egg Nog ice cream (hard to find in the local supermarkets). My favorites are butter pecan and vanilla. Also I notice that I eat mostly in the summer.
July 28th, 2009 at 9:05 amLove your ice cream, especially the Moose Tracks!
July 27th, 2009 at 3:55 pmI could sure use a free ice cream treat everyday to get me thru this rainy summer that we’re having!
July 23rd, 2009 at 3:19 pmDelight your palate! Add a bit of happiness to every meal! You know where I’m headed; straight to the freezer for a moderate serving of delicious Turkey Hill Ice Cream. We can all use a little Turkey Hill Ice Cream happiness.
July 16th, 2009 at 6:53 pmMy kids just decided that July 31st, the last day in Ice Cream month, we will have ice cream with our breakfast, lunch and dinner! Sounds good to me!
July 15th, 2009 at 9:02 pmYou’re right, these questions are much easier. Last week’s were too much to handle on a Monday!
July 15th, 2009 at 4:49 pmThis sign is so cute! Today we brought a friend to the grocery store…she bought coffee and Eagles Touchdown Sundae!

July 14th, 2009 at 11:04 amFinding the answers to the trivia questions is a great adventure. Once I find them it’s an education. Then I reward myself with a bowl of Turkey Hill vanilla ice cream.
July 14th, 2009 at 10:32 amLove the sign. It would go great in my kitchen…and would be a constant reminder that it’s time to eat ice cream

July 14th, 2009 at 8:18 amThe answers are already pouring in via the trivia email address. Even though there’s no tricky math this week, these questions still aren’t easy. Good luck to everyone though!
July 14th, 2009 at 8:07 amFor the quiz I batted zero but I can’t wait for the answers to a few of the questions since I always wondered what is the difference between sherbet and sorbet besides spelling
July 14th, 2009 at 8:04 amTOOK A WHILE BUT I FINALLY FOUND EM ALL
July 14th, 2009 at 7:34 amNeat sign. Good luck to all who enter the trivia contest. Linda
July 14th, 2009 at 7:24 amLove the sign, love cows, love the fact that my birthday comes during national ice cream month!!!!!
July 14th, 2009 at 7:14 amCongrats to last weeks winners!
July 14th, 2009 at 7:13 amI hope you hae the contract to fill that ICE CREAM SHIP!
July 14th, 2009 at 7:13 amooh, this is tough, I am especially interested in the last one.
P.S. head over to scoopalicious for some fun turkey hill ice cream commentary by my husband!
July 14th, 2009 at 7:12 amI don’t want a sign, I just want the ice cream
July 14th, 2009 at 7:00 amCute sign! Wouldn’t work in my kitchen either, but the trivia questions are still fun.
July 14th, 2009 at 6:58 amLove the challenging trivia questions. Started to do the one last week but got stumped! Will try again this week.
July 14th, 2009 at 6:53 amThat sign is really cute – wouldn’t work in my house but it’s still cute.
July 14th, 2009 at 6:46 amI like to muse over the trivia questions, but I don’t have the patience for figuring them out. I like to spend my patience on more practical things like…..waiting out an an “Ice Cream Freeze Head Ache” before I can take my next delicious bite of Turkey Hill! I am a Loyal Fan!
July 14th, 2009 at 6:21 amI’m not much of a trivia person, but I love your ice cream. Duetto is great for summer enjoyment.
July 14th, 2009 at 6:20 amI need some coffee ice-cream to work on these questions.
July 14th, 2009 at 6:16 amWill start researching for answers– after eating a bowl of ice cream!
July 14th, 2009 at 6:15 amI love this trivia. I hope to win a prize this month!
July 14th, 2009 at 6:12 amI like I SCREAM’s comment… well guess what? Father’s Day Sunday I went to the grocery store, loaded up on all supplies needed for that evenings dinner, and because I was having company, I bought 4 cartons of TH ice cream to please the masses!… next morning I come into my kitchen and “stuff” is leaking out of my freezer….. Fridge/freezer finally gave out after 20 years and all my TH was wasted
I think I was more upset about that than having to purchase a new one!
July 14th, 2009 at 6:06 amFun trivia! Love that sign!
July 14th, 2009 at 6:06 amDo you ever run out of trivia questions about ice cream?
July 14th, 2009 at 5:59 amOkay, just entered. ready for my prize.
July 14th, 2009 at 5:52 amAhhhh Yes! TRICKY! TRICKY! TRICKY!
July 14th, 2009 at 5:39 amAHHHHHHHHHH..thank you for no math this week! I, too, was a victim last week! Would love the sign for above my freezer!
July 14th, 2009 at 5:15 amAHHHHHHHHHH..thank you for no math this week! I, too, was a victim last week!
July 14th, 2009 at 5:12 amCute sign
July 14th, 2009 at 3:20 amYes, I was someone who was thrown by the math question. I Will try to do math for ice cream.
July 13th, 2009 at 10:31 pmNice sign!!!
July 13th, 2009 at 10:16 pmI can’t believe Turkey Hill wasn’t always America’s favorite ice cream brand! I can’t even think of a close competetor. What beat it out at some point? Then again, in its first years when many people do not know about Turkey Hill or have never tried it, they wouldn’t be properly informed. Thank goodness word spread quickly because the popularity means more flavors and more stockings in supermarkets. I hope that soon Turkey Hill ice cream can be bought at all chain super markets across the country!
July 13th, 2009 at 9:43 pmThank goodness today wasn’t a friday becuase I must say I am a bit superstitious and on Friday the 13th I would be so afraid that something horrible would happen like my freezer would break and all my ice cream would melt, or Turkey Hill would get bought out by a different ice cream brand or go bankrupt, or I would develop an allergy for ice cream. Thank goodness there is no bad luck today
July 13th, 2009 at 9:40 pmAnother tricky one!
July 13th, 2009 at 9:30 pmLOL….:()
July 13th, 2009 at 8:35 pmgreat sign…good luck to me!!;)
July 13th, 2009 at 8:34 pmSorry that Monday is laundry day and no time to look up that trivia but I assure you there will be time for my Graham Slam.
July 13th, 2009 at 7:51 pmLove the sign! Good Luck everyone on the Trivia questions!
July 13th, 2009 at 7:28 pmthe vintage sign reminds me of the udder choice along rt 322 that is decorated w/ ice cream scoops and old signs.
July 13th, 2009 at 7:13 pmI think I got most of the answers correct not to sure about number 3 though I like the sign but I not sure it would match my kitchen
July 13th, 2009 at 7:08 pmNew to this site, thanks for making it interesting and fun!
July 13th, 2009 at 7:06 pmThe sign is OK, but the ice cream is great.
July 13th, 2009 at 6:22 pmThanks for more fun questions and prizes to win!
July 13th, 2009 at 4:29 pmCute Sign!

July 13th, 2009 at 12:54 pmI’m digging that sign. I’ll have to get on those questions right away!
July 13th, 2009 at 12:43 pmI like the sign but don’t know if I can find the time to play. Maybe next week.
July 13th, 2009 at 11:58 amhmm interesting questions… i like the sign!
July 13th, 2009 at 11:27 amCute sign, but it wouldn’t go with the nautical decor in my kitchen.
