Icecream Journal

I was talking to someone the other day about ice cream (of course), and they explained that they have very specific ice cream eating habits. It turns out, they eat a bowl of ice cream three times each week, and always while they’re watching the same three television shows.

During the summer, they’d always have a bowl of ice cream on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday night while they watched the reality TV show, Big Brother. Now that Big Brother has concluded, they’ve switched their ice cream schedule to coincide with The Biggest Loser on Tuesday nights, The Office on Thursday nights and Desperate Housewives on Sundays.

At first I thought the strict schedule was kind of odd, but the more I thought about it, the more it made sense to me. I mean, why shouldn’t you combine something you love (ice cream) with something else you love? Does anyone else have any quirky ice cream eating habits, either related to television or not?

P.S. – The fake news story in our last “Wild and Wacky Ice Cream News” entry was #2 (the one about the study which found that people eat more ice cream while standing than they do when sitting or lying down).
