Please don’t give them any ideas. That 20 second MIDI track they play over and over again as loudly as possible is like fingernails on the chalkboard to my misophonia.
This guy clearly hasn’t heard of the ice cream wars
I used to live near an ice cream shop that switched over to doing doughnuts and cookies in the winter
Have you seen the prices for coffee and cocoa beans? Ever heard about a climate shitshow we’re participating in? You won’t be able to afford a cup of cocoa. And those trucks are not armoured enough to defend themselves from the cocoa robbers.
I did a quick search and got this:
https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/cocoa
Cocoa futures traded around $10,280 per tonne, their lowest in over a week and down from recent 3-1/2-month highs of $10,932 per tonne, on some profit-taking and amid expectations for favorable rain in West Africa.
so around $1.03 for 100 grams.
It looks like I recalled something wrong…
Or maybe you’re prescient. Roving bands of cocoa robbers who surround armored ice cream trucks is a plausible dystopian scenario in the US, and now I’ll be disappointed if I don’t get to see it.
The problem with cocoa isn’t really global warming. It has been consistently dying because of a plague, that is well adapted to the same weather as cocoa.
Went on a Christmas light tour in Brooklyn and they had plenty of cocoa trucks.
Deep fried ice cream is a thing.
I had it once 13 years ago! And still remember it. Would deffo have it again
