    Once having fulfilled my obligations in Tallahassee, I was about to go in search of another convenience store advertising Diesel Beer Ice Cream, my first effort having failed. This was indeed strange to have something so widely advertised yet so hard to find for sale. Diesel Beer Ice Cream must be a very popular flavor. Every where I stopped to buy the stuff seemed to be out of stock, yet the people in the first place did seem eager as I was to try the flavor.

    This time, on my way home, I traveled as many back roads as were available to get into Mount Perry. There are only five roads in or out of Mount Perry so cruising the lot was no trouble at all. Luck was with me and I found another place in Shady Haven selling Diesel Beer Ice Cream.

    Inside the store I once again asked politely got a double scoop of hand dipped Diesel Beer Ice Cream in a cone as advertised on the side of their building. As before, I was once again confronted by confused looks and people who seemed absolutely determined to convey there was no such flavor as Diesel Beer Ice Cream. I found their attitude totally unreasonable.

    There wasn’t much sense in arguing with people who obviously have no taste for exotic flavors, so I moved on without further comments. Frankly, I was becoming a bit discouraged.

    Perhaps God was doing me a favor by not letting me find this exotic treat. After all, diabetics are supposed to avoid Ice Cream. This of course leads to the question, why the blazes was I so anxious to find the stuff?

    I suppose it was because it was advertised on the sides of so many buildings and I’d never tasted the flavor. Leaving this last place in disgust, I pulled out onto the Interstate. There was one last place I knew of who might just have the flavor in stock. It was a place advertising they had not only Diesel Beer Ice Cream but another 86 flavors besides Diesel Beer.

    Upon arrival there was a large crowd inside and the day was warm so their Ice Cream freezer was really getting a workout. Just like any other well mannered customer I placed my order for a two scoop cone of Diesel Beer Ice Cream. The lady behind the counter made me repeat my order several times before rushing off into the kitchen.

    Almost immediately a man appeared with a confused look on his face. He walked slowly to where I was sitting and asked in a quiet voice, “You want, what? Diesel Beer Ice Cream is not one of our regular flavors.”
