London ice cream parlor The Icecreamists has found a way to get customers hot and bothered while they chill out with sweet treats. When the shop opens in Selfridges, a London department store, this fall, they’ll be dishing out “The Sex Pistol,” a Viagra-like ice cream. It’s bright green and contains penis-pumping herbal supplements like ginkgo biloba, arginine, and guarana. There’s a shot of La Fee Absinthe in there, too. The price, nearly $20 per drink, is sure to you make your wallet shrink. When will they make a version for the ladies?[NY Daily News]

Mamma mia! Why have we never seen spaghetti ice cream before? Italo-philes can buy a hand-pump spaghetti ice cream maker to squeeze out a plate of ice cream or gelato “noodles” and garnish with strawberry sauce and grated white chocolate, grated almonds or coconut flakes for “tomato sauce” and “cheese.”

The hand-held spaghetti makers run from $12 to $22, while the ones for commercial use run in the hundreds. You can even buy inserts to make “fettucine” or “lasagna.” Too cute. Also, we’re hungry. [Spaghetti Ice Cream]

The British Advertising Standards Authority banned this Federici ice cream ad after readers complained about the nun’s “seductive pose.” Yeah, we don’t like thinking about what she was going to do with that spoon, either.

Sure, July’s most famous holiday is the one celebrating our fine nation’s birth, but let’s not forget one of the month’s other noteworthy events: National Ice Cream Month. In 1984, Ronald Reagan designated the whole month as such, and he also named the third Sunday of July (yesterday) National Ice Cream Day. His proclamation called for people to observe these with “appropriate ceremonies and activities.” I neglected to eat any ice cream yesterday, but in the last 10 days of the month, I plan to give ice cream a proper celebration.

Baby bumps are sooooo hot right now. All the trends from clothing to red carpet arm candy involve a baby on board. As if the cover of every magazine wasn’t enough, now pregnant chicks are getting an even bigger scoop courtesy of Baskin Robbins. Today is the ice creamery’s Happy Bump Day, a play on the usual hump day. So, if you’ve got a bun in the oven, you can get a free cone of soft serve on them all day. As for just normally fat me, I think I can just fake being knocked up, right? Hey, it’s free ice cream! [Ad Week and Baskin Robbins]

Whenever I hear the sound of an ice cream truck rolling down the street, I think, Wow, if I were a pedophile, driving an ice cream truck would be a genius way for me to get in with the kiddies! and it seems lawmakers are having similar thoughts. Last summer, a convicted sex predator was found to be driving an ice cream truck in San Bernardino County, CA. Now, they’re planning to draft an ordinance that would prevent that from happening, and similar laws are in the works in Massachusetts and New York. Rapid City, SD will require ice cream vendors to undergo criminal background checks. The ACLU has warned groups against going overboard in their prosecution of sex offenders, but shouldn’t little kids be able to get ice cream without first getting groped? [AHN]
