Ice Cream For Breakfast Day

Ice Cream for Breakfast Day is an annual American holiday dedicated to a sweet breakfast with this wonderful dessert. It is every first Saturday in February.

History

The history of Ice Cream for Breakfast Day begins in the Rappaport family of many children, who lived in Rochester, New York. One day (with a high degree of probability it was 1966), a strong snowstorm hit the city. Schools were closed, roads were covered, and the courtyards of houses were littered with snow. In the early February morning, the children complained to their mother that they could not do anything because it was very cold outside. To somehow entertain them, the woman said that there would be ice cream for breakfast.

The tradition of eating ice cream for breakfast became entrenched in the family. When the children grew up, they introduced it to their friends. This holiday is literally passed down from generation to generation. Today there is information that this day is not only in the USA, but also in Europe, Nepal, Honduras, and other places. As a single date for the celebration, the first Saturday in February was chosen and finally fixed.

Interesting facts

• The most common varieties of ice cream are chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry.
