Join Sarah to explore the history, science, and culinary creativity of ice cream! We'll unearth the stories behind our favorite ice cream treats and share some of history's wildest bygone flavors: Flowers! Parmesan! Whale!

And you'll hear the tale of vanilla ice cream, a commonplace flavor with a rare and exotic. By the end of the night, you'll be able to answer questions like: which came first, chocolate or vanilla? The ice cream sandwich or the ice cream cone? Neapolitan or liquid nitrogen? All will be revealed!
