So there's a story behind why they flip the Blizzards. Samuel Temperato, the DQ franchise owner who came up with the idea for Blizzards, was inspired by the frozen treats sold by Ted Drewes, a St. Louis shop owner who termed them “concrete”. In 1959, Steve Gamber, then 14, would stop by Drewes’ Chippewa Street location for a sandwich and chocolate malt, asking Drewes to make it thicker and thicker each time. Drewes had enough and one day flipped the malt upside down to show its thickness, assuring his young customer that if it fell out, it was free. Temperato picked this up for Dairy Queen!

The peanut buster parfait at DQ is EVERYTHING. I've been getting it my whole life. There's just something about hot fudge in cold vanilla ice cream & then the texture crunch of the peanuts w the saltiness all together that makes it OUTSTANDING.

If only Alessio could order a serving of real, Italian gelato for each of us, LOL!

Some of the best places are small dairies which sell fresh milk, eggs, cheese, and ice cream.

Pistachio ice cream truly has an incredible taste. Yrs ago in NY going to an Italian ice cream shop was so different.

omg, that ice cube moment, and both your reactions almost had me on the floor from laughing so hard. DQ always reminds me of my childhood. Thanks for the video!

She has such a lovely smile.

This was awesome y’all. Maybe you can try to make homemade ice cream for a video? You could compare the kind you need special salt for and the kind you make in a machine that doesn’t need the salt. I think there’s a method of rolling a coffee can or something like that as well. You could rate it based on time it takes to make it (from putting ingredients together to frozen state), consistency, taste, cost (machine cost, ingredient cost) and overall happiness on a scale of maybe 0-5 or 0-10. Btw, hearing “the Dairy Queen Guy” recognize you and talk about how he and his wife are fans was super exciting! I can’t imagine how awesome that must feel but the gigantic smiles on your faces spoke volumes. Can’t wait to see the next video! 🤘🏻☺️💕

You guys are the best....so genuine and hilarious and so much fun to watch! You have such a great rapport!

My husband and I are big Dairy Queen fans. We always go for the chocolate shakes instead of blizzards. Best chocolate shakes ever!

Jessi I absolutely love these videos. Alessio is a good sport. And you two are a wonderful amazing couple.

I have a mall-style food court at my palace with loads of different chains. One of them being Dairy Queen. I like to have my Blizzards with a touch of plutonium to give me that radioactive energy needed to continue developing our program and might. Fun fact: The first DQ restaurant was in Joliet, Illinois, a suburb in Chicago. It was operated by Sherb Noble and opened on June 22, 1940

I must be ancient but I remember a time before the blizzard. My favorite was, and still is, the dipped cone.

Loved this one! DQ is nostalgic, more than anything. Everyone loves Blizzards. I'd love to see an Italian junk food video. What's the Italian equivalent of a Little Debbie snack cake? 😂

Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia at the grocery store! Yum! 😊❤

Oh man the artisan place close to us does an amazing brown butter ice cream, I wish you had tried that! ❤

I love your videos! I just discovered you guys and I watch your clips to brighten up my days! Thank you so much!

You two are absolutely adorable... have you thought of visiting the Italy pavilion at Disney's Epcot!? I volunteer as private tour guide ;)

I remember when DQ didn't even sell Blizzards. Seems like they didn't come out until the mid to late 1980s, and obviously they were a success. My mom, my brother and I used to go there and one would order the dilly bar, one would order the banana split, and one would order the peanut buster parfait and we'd all share, so we could each have some of them all. They used to sell things like vanilla coke, coke (or root beer floats) and their cherry limes were amazing. Haven't been there in about 4 or 5 years now, but you guys brought back some memories for me. 👍

Best Ice cream, at least in the north east, is made on dairy farms and sold in their farm stand (they are usually only open during the late spring to early fall). We are lucky to have so many of these places up here

I love his reaction to the flip cup 😂

Gotta try the chocolate dipped cone or a loaded banana split!

At DQ I always order a dip cone and my mom likes the orange Julius! I need to try a blizzard but I think it is partly nostalgia from when I was a kid! Makes it taste good from the good memories!

Let Alessio try Talenti and see what he thinks of American store bought gelato

Dq Also how the guy there knew who you were gets extra points!!

You are cutest couple in entire social media, 🧿bless you with each second more and more wonderful and happy moments 💐

Love this video and you guys! You’ve got to add Cold Stone to your list! It also would be fun to see you both compare store bought ice creams like Ben & Jerry’s, Kroger, etc.

I remember as kids living in LI, NY. We would visit my Nonno and Nonna Ferrari in Bensonhurst in Brooklyn. My Nonno would always take us kids to Dairy Queen to get soft serve cones. (Back in the 70's). They didn't have Blizzards then on the menu.

When I was little my mom would take us to the gelato place at the grocery store, I want to say the store was Harmons but I can’t remember. It was really good, to this day I think about that gelato. I’ve never been to Italy so I can’t compare.

The reason for the spoon up to down is because if you suffer from sensitive teeth in the past it helps you enjoy the ice cream

Jessie and Alessio try the store bought Talenti Gelato it's totally awesome!

I had a friend send me Jeni’s ice cream as a get well gift when I had a major accident. The flavors were creative, but I didn’t feel the ice cream itself was that wonderful. If you guys want the best ice cream ever, the next time you are in NY, take a trip about 90 minutes north of NYC in Orange County to a place called Bellvale Creamery. They make ice cream from their own dairy farm. They say they are inspired by Italian gelato. Flavors are very natural. I think Alessio would approve. Also, it’s never too cold to eat ice cream!

I mean - Dariy Queen has been around forever! She's the Queen! I love their blizzards!

Love all your videos the best you both make. Beautiful couple I’m also Italian to

Love, love, love DQ!!! Always get vanilla cone, rainbow sprinkles!

The pumpkin pie blizzard is so good. I have a pumpkin problem but please have him try it you too, it is so good

Next time you go to Dairy Queen, try their chocolate strawberry Blizzard!

I wish they have Diary Queen in Singapore. I tried for the first time in the Philippines and it was awesome...

I've never had a Blizzard from Dairy Queen. As a kid, I always got the Chocolate Dipped Cone, and then one day I decided to try the Strawberry Sundae. From that day forward, I've ALWAYS ordered the Strawberry Sundae. It is so good!!

Omg i could watch u two watching paint dry & chatting all day, but when i realized u mixed peanut butter cups with Cheescake flavor(one of my faves) my taste buds & brain said "I'm out". I'll get bak to this later...luv you!

Lots of love from India 🇮🇳 I love you guys and you are my stressbusters, cute couple, I'll be eagerly waiting for your video vlogs

If you have a local dairy farm that makes ice cream try them out. In my part of Ohio we have Young's Dairy, they have the best ice cream. I used to like grocery store ice cream but they have changed the ingredients, it comes through in flavor and quality. Seems they are now using the cheapest ingredients to make expensive ice cream. I have not had blue bunny ice cream in a while but that was my favorite brand.

Love this 😂❤

I get Italian homemade gelato when I go to Mississippi. It’s amazing!!!

What makes me happy in life is a vanilla ice cream cone with crunch and sprinkles at the DQ...

You two are so funny! Soooo, our first year going to Italia we stopped in and got some gelato near the Spanish Steps. My husband and I both ordered one scoop each and each came with a small cookie. They charged us 25€!!!!! I don’t even remember what we ordered but I do remember the bill. It took us a long time to ever try gelato again. The next time it was in Florence and I believe we paid maybe 6€. Much better experience !

Alessio: "A CUBE DE ICE!" Me: 😄😂🤣

Love these videos from you 😍 can you do a the employee decided what I eat for a day ? It’s a really cool video and I would love to see your reactions 😂

Ice cream is a number one seller in Minnesota and Alaska during the winter. Lol I agree store-bought is a better value and definitely a better taste, but I understand wanting to go outside and share with your loved one. I think as a couple you should try the hot chocolate at serendipity in Manhattan, it’s a restaurant that’s a little pompous but the experience is Iconic, I think you will enjoy

Jessie's spoon-up ice cream eating method is a yes from me.

I remember when you could go to Walgreens and get a cone for 50 cents for two scoops. I love rocky road and carmel with heath candy and I go to the grocery store.

Everyone knows frozen custard is the best! Sheesh.

Here in North Florida the best local chain is Baskin Robbins (favorite flavor is Daiquiri Ice). I mostly get pints of Talenti gelato or Hagen Daz (current favorite is White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle). For the larger Store bought half gallons Breyers Vanilla Bean Vani!la and Mint Chocolate Chip are pretty good.

I love them all! They’re all so different and I have faves at every level! Gelato beats them all though 😊😊

I love how "winter" to them is like 66f lol

Hello from Canada. We will go out for ice cream and Slurpees/slushies in the middle of winter. lol

XD the second ice cream got so much smack talk from him~

I really enjoy your content! New subscriber here! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos!

For us as kids, Dairy Queen was the “bribe” my parents used so that we would behave on long family trips. But there was no Blizzard then. We always got a chocolate dipped cone. And the last bit of the cone was reserved for the dog. :-) The “Marble Slab” place seems like a knockoff of Cold Stone Creamery. Seems like they used artificial flavors (but I’ve never encountered it so what do I know?) I might have gone to Baskin Robbins for the mid-range tbh. If you ever visit Seattle, try Fainting Goat or Molly Moon. :-)

I remember always getting a chocolate dipped cone at old school dairy queen whenever we were on a road trip as a kid.

Turkeyhill Farms makes a great pistachio and almond ice cream. It has pieces of almonds and pistachios in it

You guys should taste test different Italian Gelato next :)

Cold Stone Creamery is the best ice cream place.

They hold it upside down to show you how thick it is. Kind of like how people do that with whipped cream to show proper consistency.

We have an iced cream store in southern Utah called “The creamery” that we love! My favorite flavors are the lemon pie and the huckleberry.

When I go to Dairy Queen, I order a small vanilla crinkle coat cone. It's my fave.

Butterfinger or snickers blizzard. Rumor is, if they don’t flip it, it’s free.

I am from New England. Ice Cream is year round treat. Ok, a food group all year round😮

The "She lie" always cracks me up! 😂 I just came across a green nail polish named Pistachio and realized I now pronounce it like Alessio from watching your videos. If Jessie needs it, it's Dazzle Dry brand. Lol ❤

I dunno if someone responded already, but they tip them upside down because if the blizzard falls out or drips, you get one for free lol

Love your videos

Now you need to do sherbet vs. sorbet and American gelato vs Italian gelato!!

Ahhhh! I love I Puffi! Can’t remember what they called Gargamel but it used to make me laugh

The best gelato in the world is in San Gimignano, Italy!!

The pumpkin pie blizzard is good

The best ice cream I ever had was on a cruise ship and it was cinnamon flavour. Nothing however, beats the incredible gelato I had at a little shop in Sicily. ❤

Love your vids grazie per l'ottimo contenuto

You should try the chocolate covered cherry blizzard from DQ! It's the best one they have.

I know it’s the start, but I agree love gelato. I love it more than other ice cream, and if you try that test I think you should bring plate to see it.

Pumpkin Pie Blizzard!!!

I love melted ice cream. Yummy.

Butterfinger Blizzard

In Pennsylvania the best ice cream is homemade at the local farm creamery

DQ Oreo blizzard yum

Penso che qualsiasi gelato in vaschetta del reparto supermercato ovviamente industriale, sia sicuramente sempre migliore di quello Americano!

I wonder what your thoughts would be on the same level of ice cream, but from different stores. For example: Dairy Queen vs. McDonalds.

Great video. We love our local DQ!

She lie she lie!!!🤪😂😆❣️

You have to try the cherry dip shell on a vanilla cone🤤🤤there is no flavor like it ..sooOooooo delicious

If you like Heath, try heath and pecan blizzard! Amazing!

Ben & Jerry's has a pretty good Pistachio Pistachio ice cream. No green dye.

I prefer ice cream in the winter. It’s cold but not refreshing to me. In the summer, shaved ice is my jam

DQ is always the best. Nothing like a blizzard!

Have yall tried Blue bell creamery ice creams they have great ice cream?

Hey guys, loving your videos recently hehe. You guys need to try Mr Whippy in the uk. It’s the best ice cream ever!

There's an Italian man "massimo massimo" that uploads recipes, mostly cookies & bread, show him some love 🥺 he barely gets views I've been subscribed for a few months now

Went to a marble slab creamery a few years ago and got the cotton candy to share with my kiddo. Big mistake lol. There's a reason why you shouldn't eat toxic dyed food 😂. I did hesitate a little since it was soo blue and I should've listened to instinct. My two year old had the runs and it was dark green and foul smelling.

In East Texas I like Braum's Milk and Ice Cream.💙🙏

Peanut Buster Parfait! The best!!

The Butterfinger Blizzard was my go to, when I had them. I remember when they were first introduced in the late '80's, as a kid. The last time I had one, though, was probably 8 years ago, and it was disappointing (not flavor, but consistency). It was milkshake thick, not Blizzard thick. Dairy Queen is not really common here (Nor-Cal), as there are a few around, but none of them close enough to validate the trip, so going to a different location is not really viable. Haven't been back, since.
