Let's face it. We have all had those days, especially lately, when we roll out of bed, make a cup of coffee, and are confronted with the daily question of "What should I eat for breakfast?" Almost every time, a little part of us, like a small devil on our shoulder, whispers in our ear "You should just eat some ice cream for breakfast, you know you want to."
GUILTY.
Low and behold, the people of the world who assign random holidays have designated February 5 as "National Ice Cream For Breakfast Day". Can you believe it? Now is your chance! It's a national holiday! It might almost be considered un-American if you didn't eat ice cream for breakfast on February 5.
Now that we have established that it is OK...no...ENCOURAGED to eat ice cream for breakfast, you need to find some. You can go to the grocery story, or see what is in the back of your fridge, but we think a special occasion like this calls for a special ice cream, and what's more special than custom flavors from Clementine's Naughty and Nice Creamery?
Clementine's has created a line of special breakfast themed ice creams, including quite a few vegan options. Check them out. All flavors are now available at Clementine's locations, and they will be scooping up bowls at special "National Ice Cream For Breakfast Day" events at all Clementine's locations the morning of February 5!
