Here's the thing. I really like caramel nut ice cream. I mean, it's got caramel and it's got nut. There's somthing about caramel I find really comforting, and the nuts are an excellent crunchy counterpoint. When I go for ice cream, I'll probably go to the shop with the caramel nut ice cream.

I hate to go alone. So, I go out for ice cream with people. Some of them like rum raisin. Some have nut allergies. So, it's nice that the ice cream shops sell more than one kind of ice cream, isn't it? And when we talk about new shops and I ask, "do they have caramel nut" no one gets offended and tries to sell me on butter pecan instead.

I hope this metaphor isn't too oblique.
