Jackfruit Ice Cream

You are never too old for ice cream. It's fine if you still have a soft spot for the scoop in the cone that you grew up eating. We know that feeling! Whether it's the hip Hot Chocolate Sundae or the retro Banana Split, digging into sweet sugary goodness brings back memories of summer. This summer delight a pleasure to die for and you will agree.

So, where exactly did it come from? With Gelato in Italy, Ice-Cream in America, and Kulfi in India, the history of these frozen confections is obscure. Some say that Marco Polo introduced ice-cream to Italy. Certain biblical passages trace its origin to iced drinks that were enjoyed by King Solomon. Even Alexander the Great of ancient Greece is known to have loved frozen drinks flavored with honey or wine. The Romans, on the other hand, started preparing ice-cream when ice was collected and stacked in 'ice houses' (straw-covered pits). (Ice cream Vs. Frozen dessert - The Chilling Truth)

A study conducted by Dr. Alan Hirsh, founder of Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation, identified what certain ice cream flavors may suggest about individual personalities. His team discovered some surprising finds. People who prefer Rainbow Sherbet were more pessimistic than you'd think, in spite of its bright taste, and the ones preferring Mint Chocolate Chip tend to be argumentative. They also found that the ones fond of vanilla were more likely to be impulsive and idealist, while chocoholics were dramatic and flirtatious. Strawberry fans were more likely to be tolerant and devoted and so were chocolate chip lovers who tend to be more generous.

We agree, there's a flavor somewhere in the world to suit every taste bud. As kids, we would jump with joy on seeing the ice cream vendor, but do you know what's better? Making ice cream at home!
