“I’m sorry if I look a bit lost, it’s just that I’m not from around here. At least, not in a long while… And I’m having some trouble identifying your vegan-friendly sorbets… Maybe you have like a Green Tea or Ginger Root, coconut milk-based option? No? How about Elderflower? Beet? Ok ok, maybe something more basic, classic… Hazelnut? Ferrero Rocher?… Seriously? Then what do you have?… You have Superman. Superman?… Oh my god, you have awakened my childhood from a sad, cold slumber.”
(I got two generously scooped cones and a pack of sparklers for $3.95, you guys… Worth a Tumblr post.)
Superman is the best. When I worked at an ice cream parlor for a summer every kid got Superman. One poor kid came in and was sharing with his grandmother, who ordered Butter Pecan when you could tell all the kid wanted was Superman. He was saddest looking child I’ve ever seen.
