Do you like eating ice-cream? Do you know how
ice-cream spread in the world?
The earliest ice was eaten in China many years
ago. People put fruit juice into ice. Later, this idea spread to Italy. Nero, the
emperor of Rome between 54 AD and 68 AD, liked to eat ice between violin
lessons. He ordered runners to run to the mountain, get snow and quickly run
back to the palace. The snow was mixed with fruit juice and honey.
Around 1660, coffee
shops serving ice-ream were very popular in Paris. Most of the coffee shops
were owned by Italians. The first successful one was opened by a man from Italy
named Francesco Procopio.
Ice-cream
was probably to America in the early 1700s, and it quickly became the favorite
of American presidents. George Washington had ice-cream machine in his kitchen.
Dolly Madison, the wife of President Madison, was the first one to serve her guests
ice-cream in the White House.
Before ice-cream was sold in stores, it was made
and frozen(冷冻)at home. It took lots of work
to mix cream, eggs, fruit, ice and salt, and then to freeze it. Nancy Johnson, an
American woman made the hand-turned ice-cream freezer in 1846. Five years later,
Jacob Flusell opened first ice-cream freezer in 1846. Five years later, Jacob
Flusell opened first ice-cream business in Baltimore, Maryland. His business quickly
spread to other states.
