Suck my entire dick. Y’all wrong.

Pretty sure this was tried over a decade ago already. Back then I used to live in Ireland, and Cornetto made the official statement that the block of chocolate at the bottom was the most practical and cost effective solution they found to prevent melting icecream leaking out through the bottom.
This is one of those litmus tests that can be used to instantly tell if a person is a human or a lizard-person.
That’s the best part, you monsters.
So I’m seeing here the only real reason people don’t like it is because they can’t suck the ice cream out. I don’t get it. Why not just fucking eat it and not get it all over yourself?
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
The world needs more ice cream cone engineers 🫡
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…
You can buy plenty of icecream cones without that chocolate in the bottom. I’m sure it makes it easier, but it is definitely not impossible to industrially massproduce icecream cones without them.
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.
I actually hate crispy cones… Cornetto are good, crunchy but not hard.
More soggy ice cream cones I say. Who’s with me ✊️Probably thawed slightly at some point, most likely from shop to freezer.
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.
You might be mashing it in your memories with the super crispy / sugar coated / super thin waffle cones you get at something like a creamery store in an outlet mall? Those would snap like a crisp chip with a book dropped on it if you dropped them.

I bet you were a pretty big wheel down at the ice cream factory
I like them, I’ll die on this hill.
I think the thing is too sweet. And probably just a trick so you crave another one after you ate it. If they were made of real chocolate or a nice bitter dark chocolate, i’d probably like it.
I don’t think that even Slannesh themselves would agree with your username. They aren’t the indecisive mollusk that Tzeench is, but they seem to question their own place in reality nonetheless.
I like them.
And it’s either that or wobbly waffles as soon as the ice melts a bit.
I fear many won’t understand the reference here.
Didn’t realize I haven’t seen the third movie in the trilogy.
'ad to mess with my Corne’o, did ya?
Thats what keeps the melted icecream from dripping out the bottom though…
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.
You’re supposed to eat the tip first and suck the ice cream out of the cone through the hole in the bottom.
This
Eat least, I think that’s why it’s there, but that makes sense
Also, it’s nice, a nice last piece of chocolate, what are people complaining about?
It could be significantly smaller and still achieve that. Many people wouldn’t like that though (I actually would like a better cone to chocolate ratio).

You gotta use [email protected]
OP you’re wrong, sorry.
Don’t be, don’t ever shy away from being a beacon of truth, OP’s wrong, period.
I hate chocolate. I don’t want no fuckin chocolate randomly surprising me. It is evil and should be banished.
Edit: Okay because apparently I need to literally spell this out for people for who cannot make the simple leap on their own…
I do not buy chocolate ice cream. I buy vanilla ice cream. It comes in a cone. It is vanilla. There is vanilla. That’s it. Maybe peanuts. Then, suddenly, chocolate.
Does that make more sense now? Jesus H. Christ.
Edit 2: Downvote me all you want. I’m not trolling, y’all are either utterly fucking incapable of understanding the concept of VANILLA ICE-CREAM, y’all are trolling or you’re living on such a distant plane of reality that you’re inventing shit that I’ve done then your opinion is worthless to begin with.
Have fun with the single brain cell amongst all of you and let me know whose turn it is tomorrow.
The chocolate is part of the charm you infidel. If you don’t like it there are other ice cream products that don’t have chocolate. Don’t ruin our Cornetto.

Buys chocolate ice-cream
Kind of a crazy assumption on your part that the dude who just finished saying he hates chocolate is buying chocolate ice cream. Like… how the fuck did you get to that conclusion?
No dude. I buy vanilla ice cream. Vanilla ice cream that has peanuts on top and is in a cone. No chocolate except for the random plug of chocolate. I’m sorry. It’s totally on me for assuming that the logical leap between “Hate chocolate” and “not buying chocolate ice cream” was such an easy one. I will take greater care in future.
how did you get to that conclusion
this is the box that ice cream comes in
There are tons of similar products, and every one I’ve seen has chocolate on the top, including this one (oreos are chocolate).
The inside of the cone is coated in chocolate to prevent it from getting soggy from all the melted icecream. It tends to pool at the bottom because that’s how gravity works.
There is no “random” plug of chocolate. It’s an inherent function of the product. No matter what the flavour of icecream is, the cone itself is inherently a chocolate product.
So yes, you are, in fact, knowingly purchasing chocolate products, as evidenced by the fact that you’re currently complaining about all the chocolate in these cones that you keep purchasing. If you hate chocolate that much, then maybe just don’t buy it?
This is entirely a problem of your own making. And people are correct in pointing out that your responses have been nothing but toxic.
If Cornetto is the best vanilla ice cream you can get, you might have a point. But both you and me know that’s not the case!
I’m definitely team chocolate here but now I’m really curious. What else could be used to plug the cone instead of chocolate but still taste good with vanilla ice cream? Has any other company tried something other than chocolate?
Nougat, maybe?
Caramel?
Fudge?
Mac & cheese?
Ham?
Pesto?
Sun-dried tomato?
Fresh clove of garlic?
A floppy of the original Prince of Persia game?
Fudge?
Also chocolate.
Chocolate fudge exists, yes, but that’s far from the only flavor…
I’m not following you with the “I hate chocolate”. Are you sure you’re speaking English?
I can understand being allergic or something, but hating chocolate isn’t valid.
: blocks OP for insanity
why did three quarters of all posts on Lemmy suddenly disappear?
Maybe don’t buy the ice cream that’s coated with fuckin chocolate?
I DON’T.
I legitimately do not fucking understand how all of you went “Oh. He hates chocolate. He is clearly buying chocolate ice cream!” Like how the fuck did you get there?
You bought ice cream that comes in the cones that are coated in chocolate. They aren’t keeping it a secret from you.
Too late OP we know your sick, twisted mind is bent on ruining Cornettos for the rest of us.
Even the vanilla versions of those things have a chocolate shell coating on the top, not just inside the cone. You would’ve known what it was about way before you got to that last part.
(If that isn’t true for the ones you buy, I want to know what weird, obscure brand you’re talking about.)
To be fair, though, coating the cone with some other flavor (butterscotch, maybe) could be a neat idea.
Not where I am it doesn’t. No idea where OP is
(Still has chocolate on top though)
Take a picture and show us what cones you bought so we can make fun of you more. If you refuse, you’ll get made fun of anyway because we will all assume you realized you were in the wrong.
I hate chocolate
L + ick + cringe + who asked + stay mad + ok boomer + triggered + touch grass + skill issue + reported + no one cares
You can just… Not eat that part. Like nobody’s making you.
Ok, you bought a Cornetto once and was surprised by chocolate. Surely you learned after the first time and can just stop buying it? Where’s this obsession coming from, why can’t you move on?
Seems more like you’re trying to bring Reddit here, with that kind of trolling.
Trolling
Right. I’m trolling to say that “I don’t like random chocolate in the vanilla ice cream cones that I buy.”
Jesus Christ. You people are fucking hopeless.
It’s not a vanilla ice cream cone though. It’s vanilla with chocolate coating. It’s not random, they put it right on front street.
You’re getting collectively wound up. 🤣🤣🤣
Did you commit to this before you knew what a Cornetto was?
I mean, if it’s always there, and you’re surprised to find it… maybe it is your braincells that are free roaming…
It also serves as a plug to keep it from dripping melted ice cream.
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.
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!
I smell a new Tik Tok challenge coming!
It also serves as a plug
Yep, time for some sleep. My brain just auto inserted “butt”.
Be careful about what you auto insert.
Especially right before bed. You never know where it might end up in the morning.

You know that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer sells muffin tops without the muffins and makes bank?
Sell me cone bottoms. I’ll buy them all.
sounds pretty good. is that a random link or is that specific brand good?
Random link, sorry. Idk which brand I’ve had.
My god 🤤
I’m so excited for you, those things are delicious and dangerous.
It was Elaine tho
You can get these as thc edibles in some places
I’m pretty sure many of the ‘upscale casual’ fast food restaurants sell them. I know I’ve seen them at several of the ‘bakery themed’ ones.
Fill a bowl with 'em, pour in some milk, and give me a spoon!
Your words are poison.
Depends, how is your dick?
