Senior Center Ice Cream Freeze Off: Onion Ice Cream Entry Snubbed

June 23, 2023 – In a controversial decision, the official Senior Center Judges of the Senior Center Ice Cream Freeze Off did not award first place to last minute ice cream entry #19 a.k.a. Onion Ice Cream.

Comments on entry #19 ranged from, “I don’t hate it..” to “…very… interesting…” to “this would be good on a steak.”

They did however find worthy winners among the other 18 entries.

After the initial rush, connoisseurs could return to taste other recipes and ultimately vote for their favorite. Onion ice cream lovers did not need to leave their seats, as it was brought to everyone’s table several times to make sure it was completely appreciated.

If you would like a copy of the Onion Ice Cream Recipe, for yourself or as a gift, please have cash ready. Signed and laminated copies are available at the Senior Center for $45.76 each. Or maybe not…
