Who doesn’t love ice cream? Today on City Cast Las Vegas, co-host Vogue Robinson sits down with food historian Sarah Lohman, author of Eight Flavors: The Untold Story of American Cuisine. Sarah’s not only working on a new book about ice cream, she’s also a Las Vegas local — and in doing her research, she’s uncovered some fascinating facts about ice cream in Las Vegas. Like, did you know that Henderson has the country’s second largest ice cream plant? Or that ice cream used to be a luxury product — but Las Vegas still found a way to sell it, well before refrigeration existed? Sarah and Vogue also talk about the history of our most famous frozen custard spot, the latest trends in ice cream, and where to find them in the Valley.
