The Ice Cream Secret

In this day and age, society has managed to surround a population by self-serve yogurt shops and confectionaries that are similar to the goodies sold centuries ago. It is no question that the current popularity of these shops provide a difficult challenge, especially to those on their way to changing unhealthy eating behaviors.

I have always been a loyal ice cream admirer. The connection between ice cream and the world’s history related nutrition, including the journey it has gone through to get where it is today, never fails to leave such strong impressions. OF SUGAR AND SNOW written by Jeri Quinzio takes an approach to educate her readers by taking them back in time with the use of historical recipes and comments that expel the truth behind A history of Ice Cream Making.

What’s the Secret?

Many people are curious; can you get addicted to ice cream?

Perhaps, but one researcher’s thoughts on the situation provided that, "Over consumption of these foods down regulates reward processes," he explained. "That may, in turn, make you eat more," in an effort to feel the same pleasure you once did.

In other words, ice cream can have addictive-like properties. 

So what happens if you add alcohol to the mix?  

Surely you have heard about Arizona locals having their own SnoBar, found in 5 different locations across the valley creating a fun way to enjoy cocktails. The gourmet, frozen alcohol-infused ice-pops and ice cream are made with natural ingredients and premium alcohol containing a full cocktail in every serving. 

These are for those who are at least 21. So the way I see it, these also contain addictive-like properties and should be consumed responsibly. 

Check them out, you never know; maybe they have a secret of their own. Looking forward to reading about them in the books.
