Blue Moon (ice Cream)
Blue Moon is an ice cream flavor with bright blue coloring available almost exclusively in the Upper Midwest of the United States. The Chicago Tribune has described the ice cream as "Smurf-blue, marshmallow-sweet, and tasting remarkably like Froot Loops and Fruity Pebbles". Blue Moon ice cream is one of the flavors which make up Superman ice cream.
Blue Moon is found mainly in Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. It is found less frequently in Indiana; Iowa; Illinois; Ohio; and Erie, Pennsylvania, and has reportedly been available (either in the past or currently) in California; Colorado; Missouri; western Pennsylvania (Jamestown Hunger Buster); upstate New York; Houston, Texas; Nebraska; Wyoming; Arizona; Seattle, Washington; and as far south as Bradenton, Florida. A possibly similar, possibly identical flavor has also been sold in Italy under the name "Puffo", which is Italian for "Smurf".

Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or moon:
“There were ghosts that returned to earth to hear his phrases,
As he sat there reading, aloud, the great blue tabulae.
They were those from the wilderness of stars that had expected more.
There were those that returned to hear him read from the poem of life,
Of the pans above the stove, the pots on the table, the tulips among them.
They were those that would have wept to step barefoot into reality....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“The moon is door. It is a face in its own right,
White as a knuckle and terribly upset.
It drags the sea after it like a dark crime; it is quiet
With the O-gape of complete despair.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
