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:
“Two wooden tubs of blue hydrangeas stand at the foot of the stone steps.
The sky is a blue gum streaked with rose. The trees are black.
The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air.
Moisture and heat have swollen the garden into a slum of bloom.
Pardie! Summer is like a fat beast, sleepy in mildew....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“For now the moon with friendless light carouses
On hill and housetop, street and marketplace,
Men will plunge, mile after mile of men,
To crush this lucent madness of the face....”
