about... ice cream
For a long time, ice cream was such a rare
treat that only presidents, kings and queens were lucky
enough to taste it. It was only after the invention of the
electric ice cream machine and freezers that ice cream became
more common. Today, Americans consume more than 800 million
gallons of ice cream per year. That's enough of the frozen
treat to provide 10 single-scoop cones for every human on
Earth.
