Transcript

Friend has never had olive oil on ice cream before, and I just found out that Graza has an ice cream stand here, so we're gonna go try it. Okay. We found the Graza truck, and I need vanilla ice cream best with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. They have portables. At least for later. One for me, one for you. Wait. Eight eight? This is better than what I remembered. I have to try them. Oh. The eight eight. It's even better with an extra drizzle of olive oil. I'm gonna drizzle this on everything. Why are you making fun of me? You're just jealous that you want soft ale.
