Free Cone Day at Ben & Jerry`s!

Today you can get a free cone of icecream at Ben & Jerry`s in Karl Johans gate. Free cone day is an annual event for every Ben & Jerry`s store worldwide. They are among other things presenting a new flavour from the fair trade market – so now you can eat really good ice cream with a really good conscience!

 Ben & Jerry`s opened their first scoop shop in Oslo in February this year, and it is definitely going to be one of my favourite places to hang out on sunny days this summer! Although a full cone of this delicious ice cream almost contains as much calories as you need for a whole day, it's definitely worth a try. Its oh so good!

The sweet story behind Ben & Jerry`s ice cream began in a gym class in 1966. Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield became friends since they both hated to run and loved to cook. Because of their passion for eating, they both took a 5 dollar corresponding course in how to make ice cream – and opened an ice cream shop in an old gas station in Vermont. The ice cream quick became popular and the rest is as you may know, history.
