Your mom may have discouraged you from eating ice cream for breakfast as a child, but in all likelihood, she had never heard of the one day of the year (at least) on which it’s perfectly acceptable to dig into a pint or so of cookie-dough ice cream for the day’s first meal.

On Saturday, Feb. 6, ice cream lovers throughout the world can rejoice in their love of the frozen treat on “Ice Cream for Breakfast Day.” And, conveniently enough, Jubie’s Creamery in Fairborn is hosting its very own celebration of this special holiday. Pajama-clad ice cream fans will be welcomed, and even rewarded.

The shop will open earlier for Celebrate Ice Cream for Breakfast Day and will offer specialty breakfast-inspired flavors that day such as Grandma’s Oatmeal Ice Cream, made with homemade oatmeal cookies. Other flavors will blend ice cream with your choice of eight popular breakfast cereals, including Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Apple Jacks, Frosted Flakes, Fruity Pebbles and Lucky Charms, all on a special menu.
