There isnot an enhanced time of year for National Ice Cream Month than July. Its hot; its damp; and lets face it ice cream is, a cure for the summer-time blues.
In 1984, President Ronald Reagan designated July as National Ice Cream Month. Reagan must have actually loved ice cream or had some stock in Ben and Jerrys because he also selected the third Sunday in July as National Ice Cream Day.
According to idfa.org, Reagan familiar ice cream as a fun and nutritious food that is enjoyed by a full 90 percent of the nations population.
This time, national ice cream day will be July 15.
According to idfa.org, the U.S. ice cream industries generate more than $21 billion in yearly sales and provide thousands of jobs. About nine percent of all the milk shaped by U.S. dairy farmers is used to produce ice cream.
