Baskin-Robbins 31 Flavors

Pink bubblegum ice cream.  That’s my oldest son’s favorite.  Like thousands of kids before him, he can’t possibly understand why there would be any OTHER choice for ice cream.

Today’s outing to the ice cream store got me wondering about Baskin-Robbin’s original 31 flavors from 1945.  Have they changed?  Yes.  And quite a few on this list surprised me.  List courtesy of Wikipedia.
