"hood ice cream" news and stories

I was obsessed with ice cream sandwiches when I was a kid. What a great idea: an ice cream/chocolate sandwich treat you can eat with your hands! My mom usually bought Hood brand, and I'd eat them by the box.

Today is National Ice Cream Sandwich Day, and since it's probably warm where you are (in the U.S. anyway), go to the store right now and buy a box of them. Go ahead. I'll wait.

You back? Great. If they didn't have any at the store, maybe you can make your own with the help of Sesame Street! Of course, you can't forget the history of the ice cream sandwich. They were invented in New York in the summer of 1900.
