RE: ❓Steemit Quiz 2025 - Week 11
Hint
If we were in the 19th Century, my selection of ice creams would have been different, but the reason for identifying the correct answer would remain the same.

It's definitely Pistachio (3) - because it doesn’t belong to the classic trio of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry that was popular in the 19th century.
👎 Whilst you're there-ish, you're not there enough to be correct. Primarily because in the 19th Century, Pistachio would have been one of the classic trio.
In the 19th century, it was Pistachio–Vanilla–Strawberry and now Pistachio replaced by chocolate, so the odd one out is Pistachio
👉 In this context, what is "it"?
So, it's still Pistachio - because it used to be part of the original Neapolitan trio, but it's no longer included in the modern version.
✅ That's what I was looking for! Neapolitan Ice Cream is Vanilla, Strawberry and Chocolate - no Pistachio in sight.
In the olden days though, it was Pistachio, Vanilla and Cherry, to depict the colours of the Italian flag. Then the Yanks got at it.
Easily the most fun question so far - learned something new and got ice cream cravings. Still, my favorite flavor’s missing… matcha 😋
I'd never heard of Matcha Ice Cream - popular in Japan apparently.
Ha ha! Well, it's funny what you learn when you're interested in something 😅
Mine would probably have to be something like Cookie Dough Ice Cream.
No 03!
👎 I'm afraid you're not quite there.
Time to hop in a time machine!😈 If Pistachio isn’t the odd one, then it has to be Chocolate (4), since it wasn’t among the original Neapolitan trio.
You were so close last time and in this comment, you found the word I was looking for - Neapolitan. Strawberry wasn't in the original Neapolitan either - it was Pistachio, Vanilla and Cherry to depict the Italian flag.
