From Bill Forsythe's film "Comfort and Joy". Bill Paterson plays Alan "Dickie" Bird, a Glasgow radio DJ recovering from being dumped by his girlfriend. He gets involved in a war between rival ice cream companies. In this scene, he's followed one of Mr. Bunny's trucks to their secret lair.

Blue Bunny White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookie. it was so good that I have no clue why I can't find it in stores anymore.

and then another first principle concerning ice cream is:

of which I am willing to eat even if I die because of it. the cheaper the cost of this one the better it taste. the glory of paying 50 cents for it, is something that ~tear in eyes~ I will never forget.

what, I ask, is ice cream without all the other foods of the world? why, it would not be ice cream at all if indeed there was only but ice cream, for ice cream is not only itself by its own essence but rather it is also itself by what it is not and in contrast to all other things that are. this is why that the soul or personality or being of a person is so very important. if we were all ice cream then we would not be ourselves and I would not believe in freedom nor would I believe in beauty nor would I even understand what creativity is.

Luv it! but that's getting close to "ice cream apologetics" which is strictly, arbitrarily forbidden.

Can we also discuss gelato? I'm in Croatia this week and the gelato here looks and tastes like works of art. :D We went to this place yesterday:



Oh, and my favorite flavor for both ice cream and gelato is pistachio. It's a beautiful color and has such a lovely taste. I also really like orange blossom, saffron, lavender and rose water ice cream because they have such a pretty aroma and taste. There's this fantastic Persian ice cream place in LA called Saffron & Rose that I love. The combination of pistachio and lavender is celestial.

I'll share the link in case any fellow Angeleno is reading and wants to give it a try. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/saffron-and-rose-ice-cream-los-angeles
