:eek:
Nearly three-fourths of adults admit to indulging in at least one ice cream indiscretion.
(What did you think we meant? Sheesh. :rolleyes: )
They've eaten it in bed.
They kept a secret stash hidden from the spouse and kids.
They've even eaten it for breakfast.
At least, that's the word from Harris Interactive, which conducted a poll for Perry's Ice Cream Company Inc.
Don't tell Mom, but some of the more unusual eating patterns uncovered are:
Eat ice cream instead of a meal: 26 percent
Eat ice cream for breakfast: 10 percent
Eat ice cream in bed: 19 percent
Eat ice cream in the bathtub: 3 percent
Share a single container with two spoons and a loved one: 22 percent
Wait to be alone to eat ice cream: 14 percent
Sneak extra servings: 22 percent
Pick out the nuts, candy, and other chunky stuff so others don't get it first: 8 percent
And who has the most ice cream indiscretions?
"Ice cream indiscretions appear to be a part of life for most American adults," said Michael J. Griffin, senior product manager for Harris Interactive. "Though men and women are equally likely to commit these indiscretions, women generally kept up with or exceeded men's likelihood to commit some of the most interesting, more unusual ice cream indiscretions."
