Ice Cream

Ice cream or iced cream is a frozen dessert made from dairy products, such as milk, cream, and ice, combined with flavorings and sweeteners, such as sugar. This mixture is stirred slowly while cooling to prevent large ice crystals from forming, which results in a smoothly textured ice cream.

Ice cream is consumed by humans, and was served for dinner dessert on the first day of the Spartan-II boot camp. It is mentioned that John watched enviously as the others ate, with the ice cream dripping down their chins after John, Kelly, and Sam lost the race because John hadn't yet learned how to work as part of a team, despite winning the race himself. It was then that John learned an important lesson, a lesson which may have shaped his and humanity's future forever.

Commander Keyes later planned to enjoy some with his daughter, Miranda Keyes, during one of his visits on leave to Luna.
