softconeWe’re back with some more brain-busters in this month’s edition of Ice Cream Trivia. This time we’re firing 10 true or false questions at you and asking you to separate fact from fiction. Instead of e-mailing your answers to us at icecreamexperts@gmail.com, feel free to leave your answers with a comment. We’re pretty sure no one will copy your answers, since you can’t be sure if the person you’re copying from is right or wrong!

Those of you who get all 10 questions correct will be entered to win some free Turkey Hill ice cream.

1. The most popular and best selling flavor of ice cream in the nation is chocolate.

2. The Turkey Hill Giant Cow lives up to its name by standing 19 feet tall and weighing in at over 5,000 pounds!

3. Despite the economic recession, national sales of ice cream actually increased in 2009, rising 1.5 percent as Americans found comfort in their favorite dessert.

4. Even though they sound alike, sorbet is different from sherbet because sorbet contains no dairy products while sherbet can contain one to two percent milkfat.

5. National Ice Cream Month in July was created by former president Jimmy Carter in 1976 as part of America’s bicentennial celebration.

6. French vanilla ice cream contains egg yolks, which traditional vanilla ice cream does not.

7. Immigrants at Ellis Island were served ice cream as part of the welcoming to America.

8. Pat Bertoletti, a culinary student from Chicago, holds the world record for ice cream consumption by eating 1.75 GALLONS of ice cream in just 8 minutes during a contest in 2006.

9. You can purchase all sorts of sports-themed stuff in Turkey Hill’s online store, including golf balls, baseballs, footballs and hockey pucks.

10. The first ice cream parlor in America opened in Philadelphia in 1776.
