Preferred Ice Cream

Summer is
once again approaching, and although nowadays ice cream is a treat enjoyed by
most people throughout the year, its sales soar in the summer months. When we
were young, the choices were simple: vanilla, chocolate or strawberry.
However, nowadays the variety of ice cream flavors is almost limitless. Here
at Food and Drink Monthly we decide to find out just what kinds of ice cream
young people enjoyed these days. We got together with well-known ice cream
manufacturer "Dairy Delights" to do some research.
A survey
was made of one hundred thirteen years old: 50 boys and 50 girls. They are
asked to taste six kinds of ice cream and then choose their favorite flavor.
The choices were vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, raspberry, green tea and
chocolate chip. The taste test participants were blindfolded so that they
could not see any of the ice cream. Every participant was given a glass of
water to rinse out his or her mouth between tastings.
The
results showed that few of the participants liked green tea ice cream. Some
of them said it tasted bitter. Most participants chose vanilla as their
favorite flavor, followed by chocolate. The two fruit flavors, strawberry and
raspberry were next, chosen by almost equal numbers of people. It seems that
despite all the different flavors available nowadays, the old classic is
still number one.
Food and
Drink Monthly would like to thank "Dairy Delights" for providing
the ice cream for the tastings, and "Quick's Surveys and Polls" for
their assistance in monitoring the survey. "Dairy Delights" ice
cream can be found in all major supermarkets.
