Sam Smith, Mary J. Blige - Stay With Me (57th GRAMMYs)


Guess it's true
I'm not good
At a one night stand

But I still need love
Cos I'm just a man

These nights never seem to go to plan

I don't want you to leave
Will you hold my hand

the Largest Ice Cream Scoop in the World


















June 28, 2014, to commemorate its 100th anniversary, Kemps Dairy set the record for the largest scoop of ice cream in Cedarburg, Wisconsin. The historic serving tipped the scales at 1,365.31 kg (3,010 lb). The flavor of the ice cream is refreshing strawberry. The scoop measured 5 ft, 6 in (1.67 m) tall and 6 ft, 2 in (1.88 m) wide, containing approximately 733 household containers of ice cream combined into one mass. To accomplish this, Kemps enlisted five nationally-ranked snow sculptors from Minnesota Big Snow to carve 733 containers worth of strawberry ice cream. According to Kemps, the amount of ice cream used would fill an entire football field. The feat was verified by a Guinness World Records judge. Once the record was officially set at 12 Noon that day, hundreds of Strawberry Festival attendees had the exclusive opportunity to actually eat a part of Kemps’ historic scoop.

Ice Cream around the World-Argentina


Helado is a Spanish word for ice cream. The most traditional Argentine helado is very similar to Italian gelato, rather than US-style ice cream, and it has become one of the most popular desserts in Argentine. Lots of people think that Argentina ice cream is delicious enough to compete with the likes of Spain and Italy. While industrial ice cream exists in Argentina, it can be found in supermarkets, kiosks or restaurants, and ice cream pops are sold on some streets and at the beaches. The most famous manufacturers in Argentine are "Freddo," "Chungo," "Persicco," and "Munchi's," ,and all of them located in Buenos Aires. Each city has its own heladerĂ­as (ice cream parlours) which offer different varieties of creamy and water-based ice creams, including both standard and regional flavours.  But the most traditional and popular one in Argentina is dulce de leche. If you have ever been to Argentina, or simply tasted dulce de leche, this shouldn’t surprise you.

The cones and cups are serious business in Argentina. There are so many different ice cream receptacles to choose from. When you ordering a scoop (or several) ice ceam, you will often be asked "vasito o cucurucho?". It is a complicated question.

Got 1000 dollars? Let's go to eat ice cream! The Golden Opulence Sundae, which is worth 1000 dollars, is an ice cream sundae that be served by special order at the New York City restaurant Serendipity. It was listed in Guinness World Records as the most expensive sundae in the world at a price of US$1,000 in 2007. It was created to celebrate the eatery's 50th-"golden"-anniversary in 2005. According to the restaurant, they sell approximately one a month, so apparently, quite a few people have some money to indulge in such opulence. Owner Stephen Bruce states that a notice 48 hours in advance is needed when requesting the Sundae, since ingredients must be flown in from different parts of the world.
