It’s everyone’s favorite time of the year again, summer time! In today’s article, I am going to be interviewing and rating different students’ favorite summer time treats around Carlson high school. We will be specifically talking about all things ice cream because who doesn’t like a cold treat on a hot summer day.
Chocolate ice cream or fruit flavored ice cream? This debate has been going on for years amongst generations and today I am going to put it to the test! I interviewed Zach, Kenny, Izzy, Hyaden, Laila and Nora. We talk about all things flavors, prices and so much more.
Make sure you keep reading to the end to see which one is more favored amongst CHS students. Then, you can decide which will be your next option when shopping at the grocery store or waiting in line at the ice cream shop this summer!
