- While ice cream bars and trucks have been childhood staples for more than 100 years, not all of the history has been sweet. Museum of Ice Cream co-founder and co-CEO Manish Vora joined CBS News to discuss the somewhat unknown history of ice cream and ice cream trucks.

The museum guy just rolled out of bed and did this interview 😂
💯
Poor dude kept blinking his eyes to get awake 😂
Man I love TH-cam comments 😂😂😂
You are so mean !
I am upset that they cut this interview short. The female reporter usurped Mr. Vora’s time by telling a pointless story. That is unacceptable!
He was stammering like crazy. The producer in their ears was probably saying, "Okay, wrap this up."
"I'm gonna make this really, really quick"
No, you didn't. You wasted the guest's time while he waited to finish the interview.
They literally cut him off and they dominated everything!!!!
Please, if you wanted more of this interview, you needed to get a life.
@@user-sy4io2xf1g that’s not a nice thing to say!
Dude must have thought he was gonna be interviewed on radio!😮😅
Seems likely!
😂😂😂
Why interview this man if the two of you are going to waste his time with your own stories and conversation! I would have actually enjoyed listening to what HE had to say which is why I clicked on the video. smh
He's an investment banker by trade. He also didn't put his best foot forward visually (a quick search of him shows he knows how to) and he's no expert in Ice Cream.
Enjoy? He was stammering like crazy.
That was tacky. Not the first time I've seen that level of professionalism from CBS anchors. They detract from the story and start focusing on themselves thinking they are "entertaining" while definitely not being informative.
I hate when news programs cut their guests off.
The dark history of ice cream trucks is that usually kids go buy treats from some unidentified man in a big truck full of ice cream with no adult present.
That's part of it.
Yeah, it’s CBS. They’re not going to let me talk anyway. I’m not combing my hair for this.
😂
Lol 😆
🤣
Why the Museum of Ice Cream co-founder and co-CEO looks like he just woke up?
He definitely didn't take this interview all that seriously.
Look like he has icecream for 3 meals 😂
As the main course and dessert
You do know he’s from Austin, right?
He could have brushed his hair! Lol
I hate the ones that go HELLO before the music starts. Scares the hell out of me.
I love the hello 😂😂😂
😅
He looks like he just woke up LOL 😂
That's what I was thinking, didn't even brush his hair. Looks like he needs a shower and a shave.
"You like popsicles? You oughta come down to the cellar. I've got a whole freezer full of popsicles."
Biden lovessssss icecream 😅
People overuse the word "controversial" nowadays.
Truly, I thought I was missing something.
The theme "Turkey in the straw" of the ice cream truck, was based on a European song which an American then changed and recorded (Columbia music) the song Ni88er loves a watermelon. Thats the controversial part!
It's controversial because the song "Turkey in the Straw" was recorded as "Ni88er loves a watermelon hahaha," by an actor named Harry C. Browne in 1916.
1970 or 71, a grade school friend of mine died because he was seated on the front bumper of a Mister Softee truck. The driver couldn't see him there and drove off. He ended up running my friend over, and Mister Softee trucks were banned in Stamford, CT for quite a few years afterwards (Good Humor trucks continued on though). His name was John (Jack) Hudak, and it was on Custer Street in Stamford, CT. I'll never forget him or it. I was maybe 10 or 11 years old at the time.
Oh my goodness. That is so sad.
It's amazing that doesn't happen more often.
Very sad. My buddy was hit hard by a car after buying an ice cream bar from a truck. As he made the purchased, he walked behind the truck which a car going the opposite direction couldn’t see him. Was the car driving a bit fast, yes. Anyhow, it was sad, but fortunately, he’s alive.
Wow, What a sad story. Imagine that kid "Jack" lost his life because of an Ice Cream truck. Did he scream, how about the other kids, did anyone scream???
@@JusticeWatchHagI see what you did there 🤭
I grew up on Long Island. Our ice cream truck guy used to sell weed from his truck. Buy a dime bag and receive a free popsicle 😎
Yep. They neglected to address the REAL dark side of ice cream trucks - drug dealing.
The "families" ran the ice cream trucks in Queens and Brooklyn, and used them too for moving "things" around.
That is exactly what I thought of when I saw the article. In the 70s our ice cream truck sold various types of goodies. 🤨
@@Nagroddy racism is a helluva distraction 😂
It wasn't even used by the ice cream trucks n loves a watermelon, which is a hilarious jingle.
Might as well say foghorn leghorn is racist for his camptown races doo dah bit because someone else did it in blackface.
I want one
Turkey in the Straw's melody originated from British and Irish folk songs, which had no racial connotations. But the song itself was first performed (and gained popularity) in American minstrel shows in the 1800s. Some songs using its same melody contained highly offensive, racist lyrics.
The darkest part is the possibility an ice cream driver could secretly be a clown-themed serial killer.
King has novel like that but bad guy not clown in that one
Imagine if an ice cream truck was playing "They're coming to take me away" while going down some suburban street...
Wow! I’m so glad we got to hear her story about HEARING an ice cream truck, fascinating!
That must have been far more interesting than whatever he was going to say about ice cream routes before they interrupted and kicked him off!
3:56, cameraman and producer knew the assignment...
does your chain hang low
does it wobble to the floor?>
Does it shine in the light...
Is it platinum? Is it gold?
Can you throw it over your shoulder?
@@avisionthroughchrist if Ya hot it make you Cold?
LOL Manish was stuttering and stumbling hard near the end when talking about the dark side of the history. He was CLEARLY uncomfortable discussing that and struggling to articulate haha.
I know. His stuttering and stumbling lead me to believe that he wasn’t telling the complete truth.
That was actually a very an interesting segment and the headline, O my. Turns out this is just a Clickbait article.
Read the comments
For a long span of time the ice cream trucks in my area played " Music Box Dancer" an instrumental from the 1970's. A few years ago it changed to the loud" Hello" and something that sounds like a quacking duck. More
and more TV hosts are getting carried away with themselves telling personal anecdotes rather than letting their
guests speak.
What dark history? They might have used a racist jingle a bunch of decades ago? That’s it? The barely talked about anything else before shooing the guest away.
I can't speak for this story, but the real dark history involves kidnapping.
She did mention the routing controversy in NY.
@@duckmercy11 yes, you’re right, it just didn’t sound very "dark" to me. It’s not like I was expecting there to be body parts in the fudge-ickles, but I did think it might be about dealing drugs to kids. Our ice cream man sold pot to us once we were high school age.
They still use that jingle. You wouldn't know, though, because everything is ancient history to today's racists. But they did shoo the guest away after talking over him. Very rude.
Mannish just the ultimate display of I just woke up
The female anchor did a great job with contributing anything useful to the story. Good job!
when i hear the icecream truck jingle a couple sts over I THINK OF EDDIE MURPHY IM GONNA GET SOME ICECREAM !! YOU WANT SOME ICECREAM !! 83 OR 84 COMEDY.
Moral Orel even poked fun of this
Did you ever notice how the "logo" for Moral Orel looks similar to the MARLBORO cigarette logo?
You tube kept deleting my response. You tube has a lot of offensive material they don't CENSOR OR REMOVE, why my response???
TH-cam is weird and I don't get it.... I know what you're talking about.
TH-cam is the police 👮
Man, I loved those ice cream trucks, back in the day.
When I was growing up in the 60's. We use to wait for the ice cream truck. Probably around the late 90's. I stopped seeing ice cream trucks in my neighborhood.
We have one that drives around the town I live in on the California coast. Drives near my house maybe twice a week.
You shouldn't have let your wife, kids, Job etc weigh you down, you should have left them in the 90's to pursue the migration of ice cream trucks.
Most of the ice cream trucks in my area as a kid looked like one of those vans used to kidnap kids, old, white, beat-up things. Will never forget how a ice cream or frozen yogurt truck came into the neighborhood and how fresh and colorful it looked and the jazzed up tropical music it was playing. It left, never to return. Then the old beat up van came, and of course, no one came out 😂
They don't give change back to little kids.
Short change kids who lack knowledge of math and money. An early introduction to the business world.
Sherbert push Pop for me please ✌️😃👍
Cheech and Chong had one too Man!!
Absolutely annoying when an ice cream truck goes down my street daily with the most obnoxious intrusive sound, with no regard for anyone or for the residential area.
Many people didnt know they were lactose intollerant.
Museum of ice cream sounds very scammer like
Based upon what I googled it looks to me like a chain of art installations/selfie-museums that have become a thing. I'm not a fan, personally.
I remembered when I was little towards my teens that I saw Good Humor truck and there was another one with soft ice cream truck.
He stumbled over the music origination of being racist and it was
She gathered him real quick when he tried to water it down. And the man cut him off right when was trying to defend it.
I noticed that, too! Typical.
The first time I ever saw an ice cream truck I was working at a summer camp in Yonkers NY. Us country kids were so excited. We took pictures and everything!
Turkey in the Straw is racist? Isn't everything racist now? Geeze.
Richard Kuklinski a.k.a the Iceman's closest operative worked out of a Mr Softee in the 80's and even though that was in NJ I always wonder if the guy ever ventured in Queens and sold me ice cream when I was a kid.
Cyanide on a burger.
Ice Cream trucks got that fyre
Aunt Jemima Uncle Ben and now Mister Softee
I remember that when I was a kid chasing it down.
Title is incorrect. It a history of ice cream trucks.
i wonder who invented the portable refrigerator in the first place🤔
The anchors are infuriatingly positive.
Ran out of people to drag through the mud, so you had to go after the ice cream man. What is it with current culture and not being able to enjoy a pleasant image of something in the past without the desire to take a nice chocolate frosty dump all over it?
What you don't like the truth? Sounds about yt
@@mmmmcolbert8787 The conclusion come to in this so-called presentation is anything but definitive. "There is some connotation..." wow. facts. "There is some debate on whether that's actually the case" got me there. "There's debate to whether that's really the truth". crushed it. BTW, the bigotry on your part is pathetic.
@@LucidStew so you don't like the truth, got it.
@@LucidStew Actually, the guy minimizing it who is clearly not black or white doesn't know the history or doesn't care. It is definitive, whether or not he admits it. Explicitly racist music was very popular in the 1920s and 1930s when these trucks came about, which is why the melody would've been used and it isn't a coincidence that it is still used.
They also had racist cartoons back then that kids AND adults would watch in the movie theaters before television was commonplace. Some of our old favorites from Disney, from Looney Tunes, Tom & Jerry, and others.... they had racist figures, symbols, and language mixed in.... but today, many of those things are hidden away in the vaults of the parent companies of these intellectual properties, much like the music.
You can spin it and say it's used for other songs, but there are other children's songs out there without racist connotations. You don't much hear those from the ice cream truck.
They cut dude right when it was gonna get real. What did you expect?!?
So the ice cream jingle is like pepe the frog, really innocuous at first but overtime used in shittier contexts.
We need a longer segment
The history of the song may have started out bad, but it was taken over for a new meaning. Similar to how Yankee Doodle Dandy was supposed to be derogatory of Americans in the 1700's, we started playing it and took pride in it.
imagine watching the movie "Friday" and the ice cream truck scene is foreign to you as a kid .... your childhood stinks
Fun fact Ice Cream was invented in Tombstone Arizona.
Somehow an instrumental version of "Turkey in the straw" is the sound of summer? Weird!
At my rehabilitation organization, a van would visit us. We call it the "Manapua Van." We would buy manapua (a bun filled with seasoned pork,) pork hash, soda, ice cream, and what have you.
Hawaii?
@@mirgrant Yes.
Through the years what was making the music on those ice cream trucks please.?
Just imagine if all businesses ended up driving through your neighborhood and blasted music. I hate ice cream trucks.
The ones running at 3 am are my favorite
0:14 or otherwise
An Ice cream truck makes me think of Hurbert the pervert.
You made me laugh extremely loudly 😅😂 ❤
How many wrong turns as a prospective entrepreneur do you need to make to end up as "Museum of Ice Cream Co-Founder and Co-CEO"
He's an investment banker based on a quick online search of him. It's definitely a case of too much loose cash and wanting to make another selfie-museum.
It was so much that was off about that Museum of Ice Cream Co Founder, I feel like that "Museum" is a front company for something sinister.
Miss the old school ice cream trucks
I thought the jingle was *Do your ears hang low* & I always pictured a dog w/ floppy ears. I guess that’s the shorter version of the *Turkey in the straw*
The I looked up all the Lyrics to the song and the end goes like this…
Do your ears give snacks?
Are they all filled up with wax?
Do you eat it in the morning
Do you eat it in the bath?
Do you eat it with a scone
Or do you eat it on its own?
Do your ears give snacks?
Yahhh not as innocent as I thought it was 😬
Chocolate ice cream with no sprinkles! You vanilla kids are weird 😂
Anyone ever watched "whos hungry"?
You have chain ice-cream vans in the US? All ours are lone traders.
As soon as I read the title I thought of kids getting kidnapped and/or abused or worse.
Mr. Softie used his truck as a ploy to get into neighborhoods because he was a prolific Hitman.
I always wanted to know where do they buy the ice cream from
Who comes up with the idea to look for racism in every form of history. They wanted him to answer that last question differently, I'm assuming...and when he didn't, they cut him off😂😅
When I was three or four years old (in the early sixties), I took some change off a table from home, and gave it to the ice cream truck driver on our street. It wasn't my money to give, and I was almost beaten unconscious because of it later on by my father. I remember that horrible beating well over sixty years later. To this day, the sound of an ice cream truck brings back memories of terror. I recall giving the driver "a big nickel" because I didn't know what a quarter was called back then.
I love the "Big Nickel" story! Back then, a quarter was really worth something!
Jingle bells has a derogatory version involving Batman.
I mean, Robin did lay that egg.
Let's not forget Yankee Doodle!
I remember ice cream trucks in my neighborhood in 1996 when I was 12/13 years old back in monroeville, Pennsylvania
Love ice cream trucks when I was little boy
So what was the dark history, other than the song?
Leave it to cbs to tie racism to ice cream.
0:38 He looks like forgot and the just woke up for the interview 😂😂😂
Mr Chill-lee--Spawn 😅😂😅
Manish, bruh, a comb 🪮and razor 🪒
Good thing he had his formal T-shirt handy!
C'mon- Ice Cream Trucks- really! Only a mean nasty person would have ANYTHING bad to say about ice cream trucks- a part of summer for generations- and thankfully, here in Brooklyn we still have them...don't take that happy memory away from us...
Reality hurts.
Has an ice cold expression, fitting for someone of his profession.
🍧🍦
Oh this brings back memories of growing up in the 50s. :) that jingle is still the same. And somebody has always got to try to make something offensive
The old Good Humor trucks were the best! I miss my days waiting for the ice cream truck and my chocolate eclair ice cream bar I was waiting to buy! So delicious!
My favorite were those Wrestling Ice Cream bars 😋🤚
Forget summer there running 365 in my state
Let's make everything about race--Americans need more reasons to hate each other, right? Read a new book called "Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me." It talks about the nuance and complexity behind everything we've been taught. Really quite eye-opening.
I love the guests hairstyle:)
You should take a look at the ice cream wars in Glasgow Scotland
This must be why my Mr. Softee ice cream truck guy never sold chocolate ice cream and wore black face....
Seriously, come on. It's just an ice cream truck playing a familiar kids jingle to attract their attention, not a nationwide secret racist organization. Sheesh.
The jingle that comes along with Mr. Softee truck in NYC drives people to ........
Stuttering match
Shade
The ice cream truck in our neighbourhoods in recent years drives so fast no one can buy from him! Makes kids sad. Not nice.
Chilean here. How curious. There are ice cream vendors here and there in Summer (cheap frozen lollipops out of a box, sell fast before they melt), but everything else is bought everywhere. Most neighborhood shops have a freezer, and they sell commercial packaged ice cream and frozen lollipops. There are stores in many places selling gourmet varieties too.
Nobody waits for a truck randomly going on the street.
We have ice cream and novelties like popsicles and ice cream sandwiches at stores. We also have ice cream shops and stands. The stands where I live (New York) are only open in the summer. The ice cream trucks also only come out in the summer. They sell ice cream novelties that you cannot buy elsewhere or larger versions of different items. They sell a lot of character ice creams. Ice cream trucks have always been a treat; not something you buy every single time. They are not as popular as they were when I was a child during the 70s and 80s.
Wow icecream tru ks was slaverys ?
10 seconds in I hear the minstrel song …
One near my neighborhood always played “the entertainer” by Scott Joplin.
Which was my first introduction to classical music by black artists. Which was nice as a little piano player-someone who looked like me!
Odd tangent I know but, yea lol
Scott Joplin is an interesting one.
My ice cream man just rang bells.
Ice cream truck at 10:00 PM is a little sus...
Prohibition - Ice Cream - wow.
Religion, man.
