Ice cream is wonderful because typically you can just eat the container it comes in! If you prefer bowls or milkshakes be sure to bring your own containers! Never be embarrassed to bring your own container. I sometimes get sighs but other than that nothing bad will happen. You are 1. doing something to help 2. people may follow your lead.
Yes, ice cream is still a tad controversial and makes me feel like a hypocrite because it’s a part of the dairy industry which is awful for the environment and animals. There are vegan ice cream options which are preferred. Sometimes I feel like I'm living a life of hypocrisy by not being vegetarian or vegan, but simply at this time in my life it’s not something I am going to commit to, despite wanting to. I’ll probably ease into it soon enough.
