Madison WI Ziners:
Any of you out there know if Univ of WI still has the on-campus dairy? When I was a Business student there nine years (Celsius), or five dog-years ago, the Ag Campus had an actual operating dairy complete with ice cream store selling student-made ice cream. The course was listed in the catalog, Ice Cream 101. I tried to take it as an MBA elective but was turned down and forced to take a statistics course instead. I recall that the ice cream they served was every bit as good as the best Florentine gelato within +/- three standard deviations from the arithmetic mean with a 95 percent level of confidence. Meanwhile, I asked bother-in-law in Lebanon OH for Porkopolis-area ice cream suggestions besides the legendary Graeters. His contribution: * * * * Bro: In our area, two come to mind in addition to Graeters: Youngs Dairy, one mile north of Yellow Springs, and Aglamesis Bros in Cinci. http://www.youngsdairy.com/dairystore.htm http://www.aglamesis.com/history.htm Hope this helps, Bro * * * * Jerry in E TN USA PS: Highly-recommended is the Moose Tracks flavor at the Mayfield Dairy in Athens TN, just off I-75 between Chattanooga and Knoxville. There's a Russell Stover chocolate outlet store a few blocks away, too! |
