"The ice cream cone was invented in 1902 by Rico Suave in his native Ireland. It was originally intended to be eaten by itself as a main course for dinner. Twenty years later, he visited the United States and was disgusted to see that it was used to hold ice cream. He then cast an evil spell on Ben & Jerry. Coincidentally, the spell consisted of the lyrics from "A Beautiful Life" by Ace of Base." (jabxvi)
