Ice Cream Classic: Chocolate vs. Vanilla vs. Strawberry

Sometimes, a debate is so contentious you’re afraid to dive into it. The great ice cream debate? That might be more than contentious. It’s outright dangerous. What happens if we do an ice cream VS? Will the admins wake up on Friday morning to discover the game laid waste by the biggest food fight of all time?

Oh, who are we kidding, we live for this stuff on Eyewire! Choose your team:

Chocolate: Why put chocolate chips into your ice cream when chocolate can just be your ice cream? Wait… put chocolate chips in the chocolate… and then add fudge.

Vanilla: Haters act like vanilla’s so boring, but you wouldn’t get vanilla flavor without the vanilla bean, which comes from an orchid and technically counts as a spice. Yum!

Strawberry: You’re a bit of a wildcard. Pink and fruity, this flavor is usually thrown in with the other two, but truly refined ice cream palates will enjoy strawberry on its own.

The competition starts churning at 11 AM EDT on 8/10, and you’ll have 24 hours to earn…
