Why is July National Ice Cream Month?
It’s the law: July is National Ice Cream Month. Which works just fine, since people are eating large quantities of their favorite dessert at the hottest time of the year. When it comes to favorite desserts, ice cream beats out other sweet, frozen treats by a big margin. So the best thing is to stock up on different flavors, dessert cups, and plastic spoons and prepare for a sweet, cold summer.
Proclaiming National Ice Cream Month
July is one of the hottest months of the year. It’s also the month when the most ice cream is produced in the U.S. Coincidence? We think not! In fact, a Presidential Proclamation in 1984 said pretty much the same thing, adding that ice cream is a nutritious and wholesome food and the perfect dessert. The same proclamation declared July to be National Ice Cream Month, and the second Sunday in July to be National Ice Cream Day. America
