      Dairy Queen is a fast food chain famous for soft serve “ice cream” which they put bits of other things in it, like oreo, M&Ms, cookie dough etc. for what they call a Blizzard, and part of their promotion is that they’re supposed to flip the thing upside down quickly before serving it to you, to show that it is thick enough to not immediately run out and make a mess.

      At the fast food chain Dairy Queen they make very thick milkshakes. Since they consider this a mark of quality, they prove it to the customer by turning the cup upside down with the milkshake still inside before handing it to the customer. These milkshakes are so thick that they do not fall out when the cup is inverted. Since they do this every time, employees get into the habit of doing this without thinking about it.

      The first time I saw this, I blurted out “What are you doing?!” and got a lot of weird looks, and my friend group had to explain it to me.

    Why are people here saying that “Blizzards” are “Milkshakes”?!

    It’s breaking my brain.

    Blizzards aren’t MILKSHAKES. They’re soft-serve icecream in a cup. ICE CREAM is not the same thing as a MILKSHAKE.

    You don’t drink a blizzard. You eat it with a spoon. You don’t put two straws in and share it with your sweet-heart down at the old malt-shop. It’s not a drink!

    Sorry. Don’t know why this discussion about Blizzard vs Milkshake has triggered me. It’s a new discovery about my personality that I’m not proud of…
