Chocolate Ice Cream

There is a debate raging in America these days, and perhaps around the world.  That is the debate between chocolate ice cream, and vanilla ice cream.  The people that love chocolate ice cream fall in line behind each other, and defend their position with their very lives!  Well, maybe their love for chocolate ice cream doesn't do to giving their life, but the people that love it REALLY love their cocoa based frozen treat!

Now, I understand this, since I love ice cream of all flavors and colors, and that includes chocolate. Why can't the chocolate ice cream lovers, and the vanilla lovers just get along?!  It is possible for everyone to get along like brothers and sisters!

I will say that not all chocolate ice cream is created equal.  This is possibly where the misunderstanding possibly finds its origin.  If you don't like chocolate ice cream, it is perhaps because you haven't tried the RIGHT kind!

When you are looking at chocolate ice cream, it is important for you to look at the ingredients of that chocolate ice cream.  A lot of what you buy in the store has artificial colors and flavors.  While it may satisfy your sweet tooth, the best chocolate ice cream has real cocoa and other natural flavors in it.

You know that you have found authentic chocolate ice cream when you taste that wonderful full bodied taste that fills your entire mouth with flavor.  When you taste the real cocoa beans in that chocolate ice cream you will know, because it will have that full bodied flavor that sugar and artificial flavors like corn syrup simply can't provide.

One of my favorite ways to eat chocolate ice cream is a dessert called "Death By Chocolate."  This is chocolate ice cream, on top of chocolate cake, covered in fudge syrup!  Doesn't that sound like a good way to eat chocolate ice cream?!  With MORE chocolate!?

Again, I think we need to get past our chocolate ice cream discrimination and bias and get along.  Often when I have vanilla ice cream, I have it with my chocolate ice cream- there is nothing better than a swirl soft serve ice cream with both vanilla and chocolate Ice Cream!
