I fear many won't understand the reference here.

The chocolate is required, it's 'fired' Into the wafer to coat the entire inside of the cone with a layer of chocolate. This protects the Wafter from absorbing water from the ice team and going soggy. Source: Worked 4+ years in a ice cream factory and was curious myself. Plenty of features of food are often a necessity that is marketed as a feature

[–] Event_Horizon@lemmy.world 7 points 6 hours ago

Huh. I never thought of that as a reason for the chocolate. And it works both ways, the wafer protects the chocolate from melting.

Smart!

I really want a Cornetto now...

And yet somehow every cone I've ever eaten has been... Not soggy, but absolutely not crisp in any way. Like wet cardboard. Still some structure but certainly not as firm as it should be.

Probably thawed slightly at some point, most likely from shop to freezer.

[–] purplemonkeymad@programming.dev 1 points 4 hours ago

My memory suggests that they used to be crisper in the past. Mainly from remembering times a Cornetto like would drop a bunch of wafer on the floor, they don't appear to do that anymore.

Just being a kid could also be a reason for that tho.

This is the same kind of deviant that doesn’t eat the middle of a cinnamon roll.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

People don't eat the center? Why? Like I know it can be kinda dry depending on the bun, but like just scoop up some of the residue on the edge of whatever container it was in.

You know that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer sells muffin tops without the muffins and makes bank?

Look i dont usually support reform when they talk about deporting people for not having British values, but just this once......

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 41 points 13 hours ago (3 children)

It also serves as a plug to keep it from dripping melted ice cream.

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 24 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

These people never experienced having the bottom of the cone wet and breaking off before you're even finished. I may not be a fan of chocolate itself, but I still think it's an elegant solution to the issue.

[–] liv@lemmy.nz 3 points 6 hours ago

When I was a child it was a trend to bite the bottom off first. Only works if you can eat the rest really fast!

Ops take is shite

[–] Goretantath@lemmy.world 134 points 17 hours ago (4 children)

Thats what keeps the melted icecream from dripping out the bottom though..

[–] thisisbutaname@discuss.tchncs.de 31 points 14 hours ago

It was originally an unintended consequence of coating the inside with chocolate to keep the cone from getting soggy. A happy little accident if you will.

That chocolate at the bottom is so well loved that a company sells cone ends filled with chocolate.
