Comedian Derrick Stroup Takes His Ice Cream and Trail Mix Seriously

Comedian Derrick Stroup takes his ice cream and trail mix seriously. The popular funnyman believes there is a right way and a wrong way to enjoy both of those treats, and he has little to no patience for those who eat them incorrectly. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear just how seriously he takes his ice cream and trail mix.

Everyone loves snacking. It’s something that we’d be better off doing less of, but, hey, you only live once, right? What’s wrong with indulging in a sweet treat now and then? Yes, we should be concerned about our health, but how healthy is it to deny ourselves a treat all the time?

Well, when it comes to those treats, there is nothing more universally loved than ice cream. Of course, as you already know, there is no other treat that causes everyone to scream in unison. In addition to all of us screaming for ice cream, there is literally something for everyone. There are weird, truly out-there flavors for the more adventurous eater, and conventional, original flavors for those who like to stay in their comfort zone with ice cream.

However, did you know there is apparently a wrong way to eat ice cream? Apparently, unlike a Reese’s peanut butter cup, there is a right way and a wrong way, at least according to Derrick. In a clip posted on YouTube, Derrick says, “ice cream is his favorite thing,” and he and his wife have very different approaches to enjoying the cold treat.

“It’s my favorite food, and I don’t eat it fast,” he said. “I eat it the way you should. I whittle my ice cream. I put my spoon on the side, and I whittle it.”

His wife, he says, does not whittle her ice cream. Instead, she comes in a way that Derrick knows he will have to fix later.

Also, he believes that how one eats trail mix is a metaphor for how to approach life. I told you, he takes these treats seriously.
