The chocolate is required, it's 'fired' Into the wafer to coat the entire inside of the cone with a layer of chocolate. This protects the Wafter from absorbing water from the ice team and going soggy. Source: Worked 4+ years in a ice cream factory and was curious myself. Plenty of features of food are often a necessity that is marketed as a feature

Pretty sure this was tried over a decade ago already. Back then I used to live in Ireland, and Cornetto made the official statement that the block of chocolate at the bottom was the most practical and cost effective solution they found to prevent melting icecream leaking out through the bottom.

This is one of those litmus tests that can be used to instantly tell if a person is a human or a lizard-person.

That's the best part, you monsters.

So I'm seeing here the only real reason people don't like it is because they can't suck the ice cream out. I don't get it. Why not just fucking eat it and not get it all over yourself?

Thats what keeps the melted icecream from dripping out the bottom though..

OP you're wrong, sorry.

It also serves as a plug to keep it from dripping melted ice cream.

I like them.

And it's either that or wobbly waffles as soon as the ice melts a bit.

I like them, I'll die on this hill.

I thought I was on c/unpopularopinion for a second brb downvoting with my bot cluster

You know that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer sells muffin tops without the muffins and makes bank?

Sell me cone bottoms. I'll buy them all.

That chocolate at the bottom is so well loved that a company sells cone ends filled with chocolate.

I thought it was a great addition! I remember when the ice cream dripped savagely through the hole, making a mess of your hand...

I mean you're just objectively wrong then 🤷

You know soemtimes I catch myself typing furiously and after the 3rd sentence I realize that I really don't give a flying fuck about the whole subject.

Just eat a different ice cream instead of "petitioning" Cornetto.

Your words are poison.

Look i dont usually support reform when they talk about deporting people for not having British values, but just this once......

This is the same kind of deviant that doesn’t eat the middle of a cinnamon roll.

That's the last satisfying bite!

That's the treat for finishing the whole cone!

That's almost the best part. Some actually have the waffle part entirely coated in chocolate to prevent it getting soggy. Plus thin layer of chocolate plays nice with the vanilla or strawberry inside.

Suck my entire dick.

Is there a little chocolate treat at the end? …or no
