MY founding father.


Q. Who made the first ice cream cone?


A. The first commercially made ice cream in the U.S. was
sold by a Mr. Hall in New York City in 1786. The first
ice cream soda was made by Robert Green of Philadelphia
in 1874 by adding ice cream to plain soda water. The
first ice cream cone appeared at the 1904 Louisiana
Purchase Exposition in St. Louis thanks to Charles E.
Menches.
