| Irvine Robbins, Ice Cream Entrepreneur and a Maestro of 31 Flavors, Dies at 90 |
| 2008-05-08 |
| Irvine Robbins, who with his brother-in-law, Burton Baskin, started the Baskin-Robbins chain of ice cream stores — together concocting quirky flavor combinations with names like Daiquiri Ice, Pink Bubblegum and Here Comes the Fudge — died on Monday near his home in Rancho Mirage, Calif. He was 90. . . . I shall toast his memory with a double scoop of French Vanilla, with fudge topping. |

| #1 So maybe the message is that if you want to live to be 90 eat Ice cream; the new health food. If one listened to all the medical pundits and read all the medical research, one would be stark raving mad in a month or less. |
