History in America
Invention
?The origins of ice cream are contested, but the Chinese are usually given credit for inventing ice cream around 3,000 B.C. The “ice cream” was actually a mixture of milk and ice.
Source: www.foodtimeline.org/foodicecream.html
The Roman Emperor Nero (54-86 A.D.) supposedly liked a mixture of juices and snow, which was harvested in the winter from the Apennine mountains and then stored in ice cellars.
When Catherine de Medici became Henry II’s wife, France was introduced to ice cream (in 1553). In England, during 17th century dinner parties thrown by Charles I, ‘“Cream Ice”’ was regularly served. Source: http://www.idfa.org/news--views/media-kits/ice-cream/the-history-of-ice-cream

How Did Your Ice Cream Get to You?
The first official account of ice cream: in a 1744 letter by Governor William Bladen, a guest of Maryland. The first ice cream advertisement was on May 12, 1777: confectioner Philip Lenzi advertised his ice cream as being available ‘“almost everyday”’ in the New York Gazette. Dolley Madison served strawberry ice cream at President Madison’s “second inaugural banquet at the White House.”
Insulated ice houses were invented around 1800; ice cream manufacturing became an industry and then ice cream became available to people outside of the elite.
Ice cream production also grew due to technological inventions like steam power.

Japan: Squid Ink
It doesn’t always come from a squid, either, but is often extracted from the squid’s cousin, the cute and cuddly cuttlefish. We couldn’t find much in-formation on the actual taste of squid ink, but the descriptions we did come across described it as either sweet, salty, metallic or even fishy.

Thomas Jefferson’s Favorite
Certainly the American taste for ice cream owers much to Thomas Jefferson. A recipe for French Va-nilla ice cream in Jerfferson’s handwriting is part of his collected papers and can be seen on the Library of Congress’ Web site. He apparently acquired this recipe while he was the U.S minister to France in the 1780s.

Vanilla continues to be America’s flavor of choice in ice cream and novelties, in both supermarket and foodservice sales. This flavor is the most versatile, mixing well with toppings, drinks and bakery desserts.
The Good The Bad The UglyThe bone builder calcium can be found in ice cream, although you can get twice the amount from the same serving size of milk.
Slow-churned ice cream often has the same rich taste as regular ice cream with half the fat and a third of the calories.
Fresh fruits used in ice cream are a healthier option than artificial fruit flavoring.
Do you know what’s in your ice cream?
Piperonal, used in place of vanilla, is also used to kill lice.
Butyraldehyde, used in nut flavoring, is one of the ingredients in rubber cement.
Ethyl acetate, used as a pineapple flavoring, is a cleaner for leather and textiles and has dangerous vapors.
Diethylglycol, used in place of eggs as an emulsifier, is also used in antifreeze and paint removers.
Amyl acetate, used for banana flavoring, is also used as an oil paint solvent.
Beaver anal glands are sometimes used in va-nilla or raspberry ice cream. The substance is known as castoreum and if it is a small enough amount, it does not have to be listed on the container.

One Ingredient Ice CreamYes, it is possible! Although it may not be considered true ice cream because there is no dairy, a frozen treat that tastes similar can be made by putting frozen bananas in a blender until smooth. It’s easy and good for you.
Bananas that are slightly brown work best. Honey, chocolate, peanut butter, or other ingredients can be added for extra flavoring.
