Thrill of the Chill Florida Today - Melbourne, Fla
Thrill of the chill Florida Today - Melbourne, Fla. Author: MARIA SONNENBERG Date: Jul 6, 2006 Start Page: G.1 Section: TASTE Text Word Count: 1456 Document Text MARIA SONNENBERG FOR FLORIDA TODAY Consider this your requisite ice cream story of the summer. It's certainly the perfect time for it. In 1984, President Reagan, the fellow who loved jelly beans, appropriately designated the usually steamy month of July as National Ice Cream Month and the third Sunday of the month as National Ice Cream Day. If contractors and suppliers cooperate, 2006's National Ice Cream Day -- July 16 this year -- will mark a significant Brevard County ice cream milestone: the opening of the county's first Ben & Jerry's ice cream parlor. Thank Matt Solomon for providing us with what many ice cream lovers think heaven must look like. The real estate boom was kind to Solomon, affording him the wherewithal to tuck this 1,800-square-foot of ice cream nirvana right between the Premiere Oaks 10 Cinema and Sullivan's Jewelers at the Oaks Plaza behind Melbourne Square. Shooting for a mid-July soft opening, Solomon may just make National Ice Cream Day. And while Ben & Jerry's is great, mighty fine ice cream makers, businesses like Cold Stone, Marble Slab and Bruster's already cater to Brevard's sweet tooth. There even are plenty of homegrown favorites, like Northstar Ice Cream Depot in West Melbourne, a little folksy place where regulars like to pig out on Lisa McDermott's banana splits. (By the way, National Banana Split Day is July 25, so plan accordingly.) It wasn't always that way.

HIGHLIGHTS from EVERYBODY LOVES ICE CREAM • This Year Marks the 100Th Anniversary of the Ice Cream Cone’S Wildly Popular Introduction at the 1904 St
For Further Information or to Book an Interview with Shannon Jackson Arnold Contact: Howard Cohen at Emmis Books (513) 861-4045 x14 HIGHLIGHTS FROM EVERYBODY LOVES ICE CREAM • This year marks the 100th anniversary of the ice cream cone’s wildly popular introduction at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair. Perhaps no other piece of ice cream history has reached the iconic status of the ice cream cone. • The average number of licks it takes to finish a single scoop cone is 50. • During Prohibition, major breweries, including Anheuser-Busch and Stroh’s, produced barrels of ice cream instead of spirits. In Detriot, Stroh's remains one of the city's best-selling brands. • In Italy, Viagra ice cream is popular. • A 1943 The New York Times article reported that some enterprising airmen based in Britain during World War II stored the mixture for ice cream in large cans in the tailgunner’s cockpit of B-29s. The freezing air at high-altitudes and the vibration from the planes churned the mixture into ice cream. • The scientific name for brain freeze is sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia. Ice cream headaches are caused when something cold hits the nerve center at the roof of your mouth, causing the blood vessels in your head to dilate. The extra pressure on the blood in your head is what causes the pain. To avoid an ice cream headache, keep the ice cream to the sides of your mouth, away from the roof your mouth. • Ice cream is second among the top five foods women crave, according to Shape magazine.
