July
is national ice cream month! Every area of the country has its own
legendary ice cream parlor or two, welcoming refuges that provide a
cooling escape from the heat of a summer's day along with some
serious culinary pleasure. Waterbury, Vermont is home to one of
America's most famous ice cream established by Ben Cohen and Jerry
Greenfield: Ben and Jerry's. Ben & Jerry's knows how to take care
of customers who find divinity in their bovinity.
In
1977 lifelong ex-hippie friends Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield
completed a correspondence course on ice cream making from the
Pennsylvania State University. On May 5, 1978, with a $12,000
investment the pair opened an ice cream parlor in a renovated gas
station in downtown Burlington, Vermont. Mad geniuses of frozen
dairy, Ben & Jerry's turned the industry on its head by creating
the most outrageous, most outlandish and most outstanding flavor
bursting combinations imaginable.
Famous
for their wild ice cream flavors, including strawberry kiwi and
cinnamon buns, the Ben and Jerry's ice cream factory conducts factory
tours for over 500,000 visitors each year. The best part of the tour
may be at the end: each visitor gets a scoop of Ben and Jerry's
world-famous ice cream. Ben & Jerry's is the mecca of ice cream
where magic happens. It's a pig out palace and every week they put
out almost 1,000,000 pints. You can visit the factory and get a
behind the scenes look with unlimited samples in over 30 flavors.
Yes, UNLIMITED!
