Description

It's called gelato in Italy and glida in Israel, and it can be found on the dessert menu in most restaurants throughout the world, as well as in the majority of home freezers. Ice cream, once considered a treat for the elite, has evolved into one of the most successful food products ever developed. Ice Cream: A Global History takes the reader on a vibrant trip through ice cream history, stretching from ancient China to modern-day Tokyo. As befits a food so strongly identified with celebration, the story of ice cream is a lively one – food and travel journalist Laura B. Weiss examines how this delicious indulgence became a global sensation.
