Summer is beginning to wind down, but there’s still time to flag down an ice cream truck before the season changes.
Everyone has a favorite treat, whether they’re chasing the truck for a Firecracker, a Drumstick, an ice cream sandwich or a popsicle shaped like beloved cartoon characters. That’s why a “full-service property management and vacation home provider” decided to find the most popular ice cream truck treat in every state. Seaside Vacations shared its findings earlier this summer.
Here’s how they did it:
“To find out, we explored online search interest in frozen favorites. Using a list of 24 popular ice cream truck treats, we explored Google search trends over the last 12 months for all 50 states plus the District of Columbia. We determined clear winners for the most popular treat in each state and overall, and how many states searched that treat the most. Read on to see which one is the (ice) cream of the crop in your state!”
So, which treat is the most popular among Illinoisans? Fudgsicles.
They’re not alone. Illinois is in good company with Massachusetts and Washington. It was a unique selection, as most states opted for Klondike Bars and Firecrackers.
