Fun Fridays – Food Fact

Posted Feb 12 2010 10:23am

If nothing elseFriday should be fun right?!

Wellhere is a Fun Friday Food Fact for you

According to Wikipedia (and several other sources) ice cream was first made in China…

Ancient civilizations have served ice for cold foods for thousands of years. The BBC reports that a frozen mixture of milk and rice was invented in China around 200 BCand in 618-97 ADKing Tang of Shang had 94 men who made a frozen dish of buffalo milkflourand camphor.[1] The Roman Emperor Nero (37–68) had ice brought from the mountains and combined with fruit toppings. These were some early chilled delicacies.

No wonder I love Chinese food so muchthey created my fave food ever – ice cream!!!

Monica’s Fun Fact: *ActuallyI love frozen yogurt more than ice creamand always have. I don’t choose it because of health reasonsI like the softer“melt-ier” texture and toppings varieties!!! Even if calories didn’t matter and I wanted to indulge I would pick fro-yo every time. Now I want some!

I really wanted to hit up the store for some veggie bacon for lunchbut decided to eat what I had planned – a veggie burger in a wrap.

Isn’t this plate so pretty? I think I got it at Marshall’s.

Dessert was a Nutty Bit – I found one completely covered in chocolate. That fact made me a little too happy.

The Winter Olympics are starting!!!

I’m excited for the winter games! My fave sports are ice skating and snow boarding (to watchnot participate obviously). What are your faveorites?

Here is the official Vancouver Olympics website for more info :)

Good luck to all our athletes!!!
