The real solution.

Crush the cone up and put it in the cup.

>>Another thing: You can’t share an ice-cream cone without slobbering all over it. (I know what you’re thinking. Why would you ever share ice cream? But, hey, maybe you just want to taste your friend’s flavors.)

Sharing ice cream is about sharing spit.

Ice cream stands will give you a taster spoon of any flavor you ask for. They’ll even give you taste samples of several flavors. C’mon, it’s not really about tasting your friend’s flavor.

Pack the cone, one additional scoop on top..

Anything else is a disaster waiting to happen

Handel’s fresh peach in a cup please.

Also you probably get more in a cup.

I like to take forever to eat a sorbet or a really tart frozen yogurt with tiny chocolate chips in it. You can’t take forever with a cone.

Japanese researchers have found a way to keep ice cream cones solid in hot temperatures.

They found an extract from strawberries that when it comes in contact with dairy products, solidifies it.

can last 3 hours out in the sun.

Coming to America soon.

My football coach always recommended wearing a cup. Never said anything about a cone.

At its best, eating ice cream out of a cone feels like the first time you ever kissed someone with tongue. Not good. The first couple of licks are nice, sure, but then you’re left with strange fluids and a sloppy mess.

The giant, dripping ice-cream cone is the status food-photo of the summer.

Who the hell orders food based on what it will look like on Instagram/Facebook/Snapchat?

I have had a full beard since 1979. I have been eating ice cream from a cup since 1979.

I’ll take my ice cream in a cake cone any day over a waffle cone, or a bowl.

If you get it all over you, what the hell...are you eating it on the way to Church, or, atop an ant hill?

Don’t blame the cone if you’re a slob.
