And they can't figure it out. People are coming up with all sorts of crazy cope because they have this deeply held belief that ice cream is some sort of bad food or it's junk food or it's bad. I'll tell you exactly why ice cream eaters are healthier, because they're eating saturated fats, sugar, calcium, egg yolks, all of the best foods in the world. When you put them together, they turn into ice cream. I've been telling you guys Ice Cream Max for months, and now even Harvard's saying that I'm right.
