Is Vanilla Ice Cream the Downfall of the U.S.?

I have a piece at PJ Media about how the existence of vanilla ice cream possibly shows a weakness that could destroy our country.

Now, I’m not saying I don’t like vanilla ice cream. It’s a perfectly fine treat by itself. What makes it so baffling, though, is that other flavors of ice cream exist.

Read. Enjoy. Discuss.

  1. Try adding pecans to your vanilla ice cream and see what you think then or Mountain Dew or Pepsi or M & Ms (tm?). Vanilla ice cream is the most versatile and the best ice cream; but, hey, if don’t eat it, I guess that’s leaves more for those of us who do. Banana ice cream is good, too, but I can never think about it.

  2. Vanilla ice cream should just be renamed “a ‘la mode”, since that is the only time it shines.
    Other than as a side dish on pie and cake, it only promotes “white privilege” in the frozen food aisle.

  3. I respectfully disagree. Vanilla is in fact a delicious and complex spice that too many people just take for granted. Try leaving it out of chocolate chip cookies and see if you notice a sad gaping flavor hole!
