What are the most popular flavors of ice cream?

Search: most popular ice cream

Why: Eric seems not to be able to believe that people prefer eating raw cake batter (which is sweet and delicious) to eating cooked cake (which is spongey and dry and kind of gross). I want to be like, "I prefer raw confectionery batter or dough to almost anything. Why do you think Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough is the __th most popular flavor of ice cream?"

Answer: Well, I can't say that. They are:

1. Vanilla, 29%
2. Chocolate, 8.9%
3. Butter pecan, 5.3%
4. Strawberry, 5.3%
5. Neapolitan, 4.2%
6. Chocolate chip, 3.9%
7. French vanilla, 3.8%
8. Cookies and cream, 3.6%
9. Vanilla fudge ripple, 2.6%
10. Praline pecan, 1.7%

12. Chocolate almond, 1.6%
13. Coffee, 1.6%

15. Chocolate marshmallow, 1.3%

All others, 23.7%

The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough flavor, btw, was anonymously suggested on the suggestion board at the Ben & Jerry's Burlington Scoop Shop in 1984. It was only available in the shop for several years, but it went on sale to the public in 1990.

The More You Know: I don't really like fruit in my ice cream (or in my chocolate or cookies or cake, for that matter, though I do love a good fruit pie or cobbler). I think butter pecan is pretty good.
