In the White House what was recurrently on the menu that George Washington was fanatical about and Presidents Madison, Andrew Jackson, Herbert Hoover, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Richard Nixon would not do without? The statement is ice cream, short a incertitude. Ice slime was besides asserted "morale food" by the US regular army during World War I.

Powell must have a correct feeling for ice ointment to have away to specified intense lengths to bring on her readers the past times and the legends of ice gel with so markedly pleasure.

Even Marco Polo power have seen it sold on the streets in China.
