I'm from Michigan, here nearly every hard ice cream parlor has it, as does every buffet type restaurant that has hard ice cream. -Artificial Silence (talk) 17:21, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This product represents a very popular regional dish that is virtually unknown outside of the Midwest.-btgoldman (talk) 14:32, 8 June 2009

"studies have shown?" that doesn't seem likely. Citation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.76.9.246 (talk) 15:30, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The flavor is shown to be made in both Michigan, Jupiter FL, AND Texas, anything to back up any of the claims? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.6.124.81 (talk) 20:46, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Superman ice cream, Traverse City in 1965[edit]

Hi

There is an oral tradition that Denny Strong created Superman ice cream at his Traverse City House Of Flavors (c 900 E. Front Street - it no longer exists) during the summer of 1965.

Regarding Stroh's making it during Prohibition, the Superman character did not appear until mid 1938.

The name "Superman" seems to have been used before the character existed. Which is why the ice cream has been able to be sold by certain makers as such without license fees. Regardless, we would need reliable sources about this oral tradition before we include such in the article.

Also the last sentence doesn't appear to be germane to the discussion at hand. ~Gwennie🐈｟💬 📋｠ 23:08, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
