Enjoying an ice cream treat


This picture was taken on Piedmont Avenue in Oakland of three friends enjoying ice cream from Fentons Creamery. I don't believe ice cream directly leads to malnutrition as long as it is enjoyed in moderation, but if a person eats too much ice cream too often it can lead to weight gain or other health related difficulties. The three people in the picture are enjoying ice cream together. Eating ice cream with friends is a common social event. The three of them could have dined in at the restaurant and had a large ice cream creation, but they opted to just get a scoop each, and one person even got sorbet. Eating ice cream can be a fun event and as long as it is done once in a while as opposed to several times a week it is perfectly harmless. The important thing to keep in mind is ice cream is a treat and should be treated as such. Too much of a good thing often leads to something bad.
