We all can scream for ice cream. In 1984, July was designated by President Ronald Reagan as National Ice Cream Month (3rd Sunday). The President recognized ice cream as a fun and nutritious food that is enjoyed by a full 90% of the nation's population. In the proclamation, President Reagan called for all people of the United States to observe these events with "appropriate ceremonies and activities."
