Incredible ice cream made right here in Pennsylvania

From The Keystone:

Bassetts Ice Cream – Philadelphia 

Bassetts Ice Cream is not just the oldest ice cream company in Pennsylvania, but the oldest ice cream company in the country! Founded in 1861, the year the Civil War began, Bassetts uses milk from Pennsylvania cows to craft Philadelphia-style ice cream. What is Philadelphia-style ice cream, you ask? It’s ice cream made with just sugar and cream—no egg yolks like many ice creams that use custard bases. (Fun fact: Famed chef James Beard once described Philadelphia as “the ice cream capital of the country, maybe of the world.”)

Anyway, Bassetts Ice Cream is an American classic, and you can get more than 40 flavors of the fifth-generation ice cream brand at Reading Terminal Market. The simple, flavor-forward ice cream has been sold at the market since it opened in 1892.
