From Deseret News archives:
Ice cream named in Rocky's honor
His way of chipping in to help solve the problem is naming an ice-cream flavor after Salt Lake Mayor Rocky Anderson: Mayor Rocky Road.
Even though Anderson's favorite flavor reputedly is coffee, Winders said rocky road is a crowd-pleaser, and he wanted to offer a tribute to Anderson. The mayor has traveled internationally to lecture on global warming.
"He's agreed to let us use his name, and we're going to donate a portion of the proceeds to his issue," Winders said.
Anderson's spokesman Patrick Thronson did not return a phone call seeking comment Tuesday.
Mayor Rocky Road is a bittersweet chocolate ice cream with chocolate chips, roasted walnuts and marshmallows. Spotted Dog will dish it and other flavors for free at a July 28 forum on global warming called "Licking Global Warming" at the City Library, Winders said.
