Houston Trip 2 (Bluebell & Livestock Show)

024

Getting ready for the tour. No cameras were allowed on the tour. But we learned some interesting facts. The employees can eat ice cream all day long (on breaks). 50,000 cows are needed to supply enough milk for 1 day’s production. They make Homemade Vanilla every day because that is their top seller. Vanilla is followed by 2. Cookies ‘N Cream, 3. Dutch Chocolate, 4. The Great Divide (chocolate & vanilla), and 5. Neopolitan.
