Happy Ice Cream Day, Piggies and Pals! 🐹 🤎 🤍 💗 🍨 🍨 🍨 🥕

There's not much better than a summer treat of ice cream for those who indulge!

Some may remember the old-fashioned ice cream trucks, whose cheerful melodies like "Turkey in the Straw," "The Entertainer," and "Pop Goes the Weasel" drifted through the neighborhood, sending children (and piglets) racing outside in search of their favourite frozen treat?

The menu was filled with childhood favourites—Creamsicles, Drumsticks, Bomb Pops, Fudgsicles, Strawberry Shortcake Bars, Chocolate Éclairs, Push-Ups, and more!

Today however, you might have a favourite flavour? Classic chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, or something special? Favourites often are very regional!

🇺🇸 United States: Vanilla remains the classic favourite, with Chocolate and Cookies & Cream close behind.
🇨🇦 Canada: Vanilla and Chocolate are perennial favourites, while Maple Walnut is a distinctly Canadian classic.
🇮🇹 Italy: Pistachio, Stracciatella (vanilla with chocolate shavings), and Hazelnut are beloved gelato flavours.
🇯🇵 Japan: Matcha (green tea) is a national favourite, alongside Hokkaido Milk and Black Sesame.
🇳🇿 New Zealand: Hokey Pokey—vanilla ice cream with crunchy honeycomb toffee—is an enduring national favourite.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom: Traditional Vanilla, Mint Chocolate Chip, and Rum & Raisin remain popular choices.
