July is National Ice Cream Month – Cool Down with these Sweet Deals!

Ice Cream Lovers Unite – July is National Ice Cream Month!

Ice cream has a long (and flavorful!) history that dates back to 200 BC when ancient Chinese civilizations used a frozen mixture of milk and rice. Since then, the popular cold treat has expanded to include frozen custard, frozen yogurt, sorbet, gelato and just good old-fashioned ice cream.

Vanilla tops the list, with Chocolate, Butter Pecan, Strawberry and Neapolitan rounding out the Top 5. And new wacky flavors have recently made their debut, including French Toast, Buttered Popcorn, Strawberry Basil and Mojito Sorbet.

We sure do love our ice cream here in America. The U.S. enjoys an average of 48 pints of ice cream, per person, per year – more than any other country! Our friends in Portland, OR, St. Louis, MO and Seattle, WA have a particular sweet tooth – they rank as the top three cities that purchase the most ice cream on a per capita basis.

Any guess on the average number of licks it takes to polish off a single scoop ice cream cone? 50!

So now that your mouth is watering, check out these cool deals from Plastic Jungle’s ice cream merchants. Saving money never tasted so sweet!
