In all began in 1960!
On my way home from a nice lunch with a good friend in Granby I stopped for fuel at a place called Sam’s Food Store in East Granby. I have been researching the town of East Granby for a couple years and haven’t been able to find any place that serves ice cream. But much to my surprise when I entered Sam’s food store I found a freezer with various ice cream products.
Today I chose a Häagen-Dazs ice cream bar with vanilla ice cream, and a milk chocolate covering, which hit the spot. This may not be a Creamery or a Dairy Bar, but a Häagen-Dazs ice cream bar was just what I needed for the ride home.
Häagen-Dazs ice cream began in 1960 in the Bronx, New York but it wasn’t till the 1980s that Häagen-Dazs began to sell ice cream bars, commercially through a variety of different stores. The moral of the story, when in doubt look for Häagen-Dazs. You can’t go wrong.
