When we have a scoop (or three) of our favorite ice cream, how it ended up in our cones isn’t something we think about too much. Philadelphia, PA native Augustus Jackson, while he wasn’t the actual inventor of ice cream as we know it, served as a chef in the White House in the 1820s and is known as the “Father of ice cream” due to the pioneering manufacturing methods he implemented. Michael Cole, hailing from New York, unbeknownst to him was continuing Jackon’s legacy in his own business, Mikey Likes It Ice Cream.
