TRUE or FALSE?


True or False?


Eskimo Pies** were originally named I-Scream-Bars. 



True One summer day in 1919, inspired by a boy who couldn’t decide between ice cream and candy in his store, part-time schoolteacher Christian Kent Nelson of Onawa, Iowa, invented the I-Scream-Bar—chocolate-covered vanilla ice cream on a stick. It was an immediate hit, and in 1921, Nelson partnered with a candy maker named Russell Stover to market and produce the bar, renamed “Eskimo Pie.” By early 1922, the bars were selling at a rate of over 1 million a day. **Correct term s/b 'Inuit' Pies!
