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.

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?

[–] moody@lemmings.world 13 points 1 day ago

You're supposed to eat the tip first and suck the ice cream out of the cone through the hole in the bottom.

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

I thought it was a great addition! I remember when the ice cream dripped savagely through the hole, making a mess of your hand...

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago (5 children)

It also serves as a plug to keep it from dripping melted ice cream.

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

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.

That chocolate at the bottom is so well loved that a company sells cone ends filled with chocolate.

You know soemtimes I catch myself typing furiously and after the 3rd sentence I realize that I really don't give a flying fuck about the whole subject.

Just eat a different ice cream instead of "petitioning" Cornetto.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Also, if Cornetto did remove the chocolate, that person would probably have to go into hiding.

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.

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's the treat for finishing the whole cone!

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.

Look i dont usually support reform when they talk about deporting people for not having British values, but just this once......

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 14 points 1 day ago

Your words are poison.

[–] nthavoc@lemmy.today 14 points 16 hours ago

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?

[–] Bubs12@lemmy.cafe 14 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Suck my entire dick.

Is there a little chocolate treat at the end? …or no

This is one of those litmus tests that can be used to instantly tell if a person is a human or a lizard-person.

[–] Sheldan@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

That's just a bad opinion.

This is the same kind of deviant that doesn’t eat the middle of a cinnamon roll.

Ops take is shite

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 10 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

I like them.

And it's either that or wobbly waffles as soon as the ice melts a bit.

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That's the last satisfying bite!

You could just buy ice cream and cones separately and put them together whenever you want to eat one

Give it to me then. I'll eat them the same way I eat your left over pizza crust and shrimp tails. 😤

Fuck now I want a cornet. Also OP your take is so unimaginably objectively wrong that you should please cease be.

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 9 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

I like them, I'll die on this hill.
