You might think ice cream is a modern kind of food,but actually,ice cream was probably first eaten in China more than 2,000 years ago.It was made from rice and milk.In Europe around 2.000 years ago,Roman leaders also enjoyed a kind of frozen dessert.Snow and fruit were used to make it.It wasn't true ice cream,though,as it had no milk or cream in it.
