Celebrated on July 8th
Did you know: The ice cream sundae is one of the food world's greatest mysteries. Why is it called a "sundae" when you can eat it any day? Why is it spelled with an "e" at the end when the "y" works so well in other situations? The fact is, you may never know. But take heart, you don't need to understand the word to know they are delicious — especially when you move beyond just hot fudge and sprinkles.
