How Perry’s Ice Cream Made National Ice Cream Day | Buffalo News

from Buffalo News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

It all started with a 1980s pitch from Perry’s Ice Cream in Western New York to President Reagan, who loved the idea—and declared the third Sunday of July as the official day. Now, over 40 years later, Perry’s—founded in 1932 and still using family recipes—keeps the tradition alive with bold new flavors like Tropical Chili Lime and Super Villain, plus month-long contests. For them, it’s not just dessert—it’s a sweet slice of American history. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
