March 20, 2020 by Becky Nay

Spread the love

One of the world’s favorite frozen sweet treats is ice cream, loved in various forms since before the second century BC. Today, Americans, on average, consume more than 23 pounds of ice cream – and spend more than $10 billion per year.

The U.S. even has a National Ice Cream Month in July, and National Ice Cream Day Day on the third Sunday each July.

Utah stakes its claim on its fair share, earning its place as one of the states that consume the most ice cream.

Not only can you find hundreds of flavors of America’s favorite frozen dessert, but also an array of ice cream relatives such as Italian gelato and frozen yogurt. Utah even offers multiple vegan ice cream options.

Whether you like it scooped, rolled, in a cone, or a cup, Utah is ready to serve up some of the country’s best ice cream.
