  Free Cone Day and History's Weirdest Ice Cream Flavors

  Olivia B. Waxman

  Ben & Jerry's locations nationwide are treating customers to a free cone on Tuesday. The publicity stunt, aptly known as "Free Cone Day," has become an annual tradition since the Vermont-based company hosted the first one in Burlington in 1979.

  Part of the reason why Ben & Jerry's has become a household name is thanks to its inventive flavors (and their wacky names), but the company by no means invented out-of-the-ordinary ice cream flavors. When Thomas Jefferson penned the first known ice cream recipe recorded by an American it was a recipe for vanilla — dating back to some point between 1784 and 1789 — but, throughout the 19th century, chefs churned out recipes for flavors like parmesan cheese, oyster, pumpernickel rye bread, asparagus, chestnut and truffle. Perhaps predictably, these kinds of flavors were usually dished out to well-to-do patrons of high-end restaurants, like New York City's Delmonico's.
