@yakarythroughtime: POV: it's 1880 London and your ice cream comes with someone else's spit 🍦😬 I time-travelled to try a "penny lick": a tiny, thick glass of ice cream sold by Italian street vendors for one penny. No spoon, no cone. You lick the glass clean and hand it back… and the next person gets the same glass after one quick dip in a bucket of grey water 🪣 Doctors later blamed these glasses for spreading tuberculosis and cholera, and by the end of the 1890s London banned the penny lick. Then came the ice cream cone 🍦 Would you have licked it?
