Does ice cream look better in a cone? Sure. But that’s it. If you order it from a restaurant or shop, eating it in a cone feels rushed. With a cup, you can take it home with you and put it in the freezer and save it for later if you want. I would even argue that you will get more ice cream from a cup than there is in a cone. Also, in a cup, you can add toppings more effectively in the ice cream and mix them up in a better way than in a cone. Another thing, cups are less messy. Ice cream always runs the risk of melting in general, but atleast with a cup you have a smaller chance of it dripping on your hands and clothes.

Ice cream is a rare treat that is enjoyed on its own terms. It does not wait. It does not idle. It knows what it wants and expects passion. Dallying leaves a miserable soup of what was a promise of refreshment. Embrace the urge, live for the rush.
Upvote because I disagree hard. Ice cream you buy from a place is meant to be a moment of happiness and indulgence instead of it being a weird “save it for later”. It’s a fleeting joy in the chaos of life.
Besides that, the crunch is nice. Chocolate coat on the inside of the waffle cone is also just good
The last bite of a standard sugar cone is by far the best bite of ice cream. So I must disagree.

This is on the verge of psychopathy but you get my upvote for sure.
Man, your freezer is like -18°C, gelateria ice cream is way warmer. You would so ruin ice cream by putting it in your freezer. Also why would you even do that?! If you want ice cream at home go buy it in the store, that stuff is made for long term storage. Eat it later my ass.
I theoretically agree with you because I don’t like to eat cones but I also like the aesthetics more, it’s at least a trash free option, and you can push a stroller/hold your toddler etc with a cone in your hand. But we are talking about eating the ice cream outside. I literally live across an amazing gelateria and never have I ever considered taking that ice cream home like a maniac. I’d rather stand outside my apartment and finish that ice cream than taking it inside.
Have my upvote, you deserve it.
They make waffle cone cups now. Best of both worlds.
That actually sounds amazing but I feel like it would get soggy because I forgot it was still made of cone lmao (me problem).
