Ice Cream you scream we all scream for....

Not Since George Washington Carver's inventions of over one hundred uses for peanuts including, cosmetics, gasoline (which we should Really look into reestablishing) and most famously peanut butter has there been a clamoring for one of the greatest inventions of all time. No not Nikola Tesla's radio or Thomas Edison's pesky electricity which thanks to him now we don't even need to leave the house, hence our Country's ever expanding waistline. No. I speak of Augustus Jackson. Let that name sink in for a moment. Need to Google him. I did too and have been reading about him for over an hour. He "created" ice cream. Although ice cream appears prior to his version here in the United States, he invented a superior technique for manufacturing it which now allows brands like; BenJerry's, Haagen Daas, Breyers to be sold by the crate full. And boy do we eat the stuff up.

With all the Dr. Frankensteinesque flavors produced. Ironically the most popular flavor is Vanilla. Go figure. So I say thank you Mr Augustus Jackson. For making a delicious treat even better. For shaping the way ice cream was made and is ingrained in childhood. Let's be honest how many of of us no matter what age don't feel that urge to run down the stairs screaming "Ice Cream Man. Ice Cream Man" when the Mr. Softee jingle tune plays? 

Happy Eating!
