ICE CREAM

Everyone likes food from different cuisines such as Italian, French, American, Japanese, and the list goes on. So, as you can guess this blog will be about FOOD! So, do you know what does the title of this blog “Nom Nom” means? Well do you?? If you know what it means good for you. If not too bad. Just kidding… well nom nom is a sound you make when you are eating something delicious or tasty.

Today, I will talk about everyone’s favorite dessert: ice cream. If you say that you hate ice cream or say “What is this ice cream you speak of?” You must be out of your mind; ice cream is an all American favorite. People eat it whenever and where ever it is possible. Some people eat it in the morning, afternoon, night, and even in the middle of night. (Trust me on this I know someone who does.) What I like about ice cream is that there are so many flavors to choose from. There are so many flavors that I already lose count. The top two flavors of ice cream are vanilla and chocolate.

You probably have a carton of ice cream in your freezer right now or probably eating one; it is okay. What is your favorite ice cream? Do you like ice cream with fresh fruits, nuts, or just plain old ice cream? Everyone remember their first time eating ice cream not knowing what to expect.
Then, BAM after the first bite your mouth turns numb or a major brain freeze. Either eating with a cone, spoon, or hands, your mouth is filled with a chilling sensation.


Don't the picture above looks delicious? For all UIC students and staffs:If you are near the UIC campus stopped by Cold Stones Creamery. Cold Stones are located on the west and east coast, however, if Cold Stones is not available near you there are other ice cream shops that are similar. I am not here trying to sell or force you to try it but that is one ice cream shop that many people goes to. Cold Stones is famous for mixing up different ingredients within your ice cream which creates more than just food, it is art. There are other many different places you can get your ice cream sometimes ice cream man with carts or trucks would tried to sell and tempt us with the tasty sensation. You can’t resist the temptation of different flavors of ice cream there is to offer from paletas de sandia (watermelon) to snow cones just depends on your mood. Also, depends on where you live on the west coast the scoops are bigger than your head while the east coast are smaller but have a variety of flavors to choose from.

Overall, ice cream brings a lot of smile to many people all over the world and there are different kinds and flavors from different countries. Ever heard of taro root, mango, or green tea ice cream it is delicious! Before I end this blog entry I want to get your feed back on your favorite ice cream, so just post it below along with your comments. Also, what should I write about next? Thanks!
