Well. First I wanted to write that it's not actually German. But then I googled it, and it IS! Invented in Germany by the company "Langnese" in 1989. I'm so proud ;D
The company (Langnese) belongs to Unilever* now, which is a Dutch/British company (but which was actually started in Germany, lol), and instead of "Langnese", their ice-cream brand is called "Walls" in the UK, and "Frigo" in Spain, etc etc. I think it's "Tío Rico" in Venezuela ;D
(* I think every other famous brand belongs to Unilever now: Knorr, Ben&Jerry's, Lipton tea, Dove, Rexona, Pot Noodles, ...)

I love Magnum as well. Somewhere I have a Lagnese sign that I, ummm, liberated when I was living in Germany. |

aaaw, one of the old ones? I'm not too fond of the new, "internationalised" sign ;). |

Yes the old one. I agree- don't like the new one. |

I'm sure Magnums taste the best in Germany. Strolling through the park with your sweetie on a warm day, thinking you are speaking perfect German as you ask for 2 Magnums and then finding out you said the wrong thing, but happy the ice cream man gave you your ice cream anyway. That's my happy little memory. |

aaaw.
so I guess the only way to get the "Magnum of your dreams" is to fly over the big pond to my little country (preferably to Munich, since we have the best park ;P) and say to one of our great ice cream men "(Ich hätte gerne) zwei Magnum Classic, bitte" ;) |

I once ordered a hot dog in Swedish and whatever the word is is like 59 letters long, and I was SO SO SO happy when the person in the little street meat booth answered me in Swedish, as if I could actually speak the language. I then look at her all confused like.
I think it was overcast and I dont have a sweetie, but other than that...that is my happy little memory. |

Maybe there's a way to split the side seam and sew them together. Ooh la la! ;o) |
