Suck my entire dick. Y’all wrong.
Thats what keeps the melted icecream from dripping out the bottom though…
It was originally an unintended consequence of coating the inside with chocolate to keep the cone from getting soggy. A happy little accident if you will.

Eat least, I think that’s why it’s there, but that makes sense
Also, it’s nice, a nice last piece of chocolate, what are people complaining about?
You’re supposed to eat the tip first and suck the ice cream out of the cone through the hole in the bottom.
It could be significantly smaller and still achieve that. Many people wouldn’t like that though (I actually would like a better cone to chocolate ratio).
OP you’re wrong, sorry.
Don’t be, don’t ever shy away from being a beacon of truth, OP’s wrong, period.
I hate chocolate. I don’t want no fuckin chocolate randomly surprising me. It is evil and should be banished.
Edit: Okay because apparently I need to literally spell this out for people for who cannot make the simple leap on their own…
I do not buy chocolate ice cream. I buy vanilla ice cream. It comes in a cone. It is vanilla. There is vanilla. That’s it. Maybe peanuts. Then, suddenly, chocolate.
Does that make more sense now? Jesus H. Christ.
Edit 2: Downvote me all you want. I’m not trolling, y’all are either utterly fucking incapable of understanding the concept of VANILLA ICE-CREAM, y’all are trolling or you’re living on such a distant plane of reality that you’re inventing shit that I’ve done then your opinion is worthless to begin with.
Have fun with the single brain cell amongst all of you and let me know whose turn it is tomorrow.
Did you commit to this before you knew what a Cornetto was?
Ok, you bought a Cornetto once and was surprised by chocolate. Surely you learned after the first time and can just stop buying it? Where’s this obsession coming from, why can’t you move on?
Maybe don’t buy the ice cream that’s coated with fuckin chocolate?
I DON’T.
I legitimately do not fucking understand how all of you went “Oh. He hates chocolate. He is clearly buying chocolate ice cream!” Like how the fuck did you get there?
Too late OP we know your sick, twisted mind is bent on ruining Cornettos for the rest of us.
You bought ice cream that comes in the cones that are coated in chocolate. They aren’t keeping it a secret from you.
Seems more like you’re trying to bring Reddit here, with that kind of trolling.
Trolling
Right. I’m trolling to say that “I don’t like random chocolate in the vanilla ice cream cones that I buy.”
Jesus Christ. You people are fucking hopeless.
It’s not a vanilla ice cream cone though. It’s vanilla with chocolate coating. It’s not random, they put it right on front street.
You’re getting collectively wound up. 🤣🤣🤣

Buys chocolate ice-cream
Kind of a crazy assumption on your part that the dude who just finished saying he hates chocolate is buying chocolate ice cream. Like… how the fuck did you get to that conclusion?
No dude. I buy vanilla ice cream. Vanilla ice cream that has peanuts on top and is in a cone. No chocolate except for the random plug of chocolate. I’m sorry. It’s totally on me for assuming that the logical leap between “Hate chocolate” and “not buying chocolate ice cream” was such an easy one. I will take greater care in future.
how did you get to that conclusion
this is the box that ice cream comes in
There are tons of similar products, and every one I’ve seen has chocolate on the top, including this one (oreos are chocolate).
The inside of the cone is coated in chocolate to prevent it from getting soggy from all the melted icecream. It tends to pool at the bottom because that’s how gravity works.
There is no “random” plug of chocolate. It’s an inherent function of the product. No matter what the flavour of icecream is, the cone itself is inherently a chocolate product.
So yes, you are, in fact, knowingly purchasing chocolate products, as evidenced by the fact that you’re currently complaining about all the chocolate in these cones that you keep purchasing. If you hate chocolate that much, then maybe just don’t buy it?
This is entirely a problem of your own making. And people are correct in pointing out that your responses have been nothing but toxic.
If Cornetto is the best vanilla ice cream you can get, you might have a point. But both you and me know that’s not the case!
I’m definitely team chocolate here but now I’m really curious. What else could be used to plug the cone instead of chocolate but still taste good with vanilla ice cream? Has any other company tried something other than chocolate?
Nougat, maybe?
Caramel?
Fudge?
Mac & cheese?
Ham?
Pesto?
Sun-dried tomato?
Fresh clove of garlic?
A floppy of the original Prince of Persia game?
Fudge?
Also chocolate.
Chocolate fudge exists, yes, but that’s far from the only flavor…
Even the vanilla versions of those things have a chocolate shell coating on the top, not just inside the cone. You would’ve known what it was about way before you got to that last part.
(If that isn’t true for the ones you buy, I want to know what weird, obscure brand you’re talking about.)
To be fair, though, coating the cone with some other flavor (butterscotch, maybe) could be a neat idea.
Not where I am it doesn’t. No idea where OP is
(Still has chocolate on top though)
I’m not following you with the “I hate chocolate”. Are you sure you’re speaking English?
I can understand being allergic or something, but hating chocolate isn’t valid.
: blocks OP for insanity
why did three quarters of all posts on Lemmy suddenly disappear?
The chocolate is part of the charm you infidel. If you don’t like it there are other ice cream products that don’t have chocolate. Don’t ruin our Cornetto.
I hate chocolate
L + ick + cringe + who asked + stay mad + ok boomer + triggered + touch grass + skill issue + reported + no one cares
I mean, if it’s always there, and you’re surprised to find it… maybe it is your braincells that are free roaming…
Take a picture and show us what cones you bought so we can make fun of you more. If you refuse, you’ll get made fun of anyway because we will all assume you realized you were in the wrong.
You can just… Not eat that part. Like nobody’s making you.
The inside and outside of all drumsticks are chocolate-coated. They put it in their ads and in their packaging so I’m not sure how it surprised you. If you don’t want that, then maybe try a different product lol.
You know soemtimes I catch myself typing furiously and after the 3rd sentence I realize that I really don’t give a flying fuck about the whole subject.
Just eat a different ice cream instead of “petitioning” Cornetto.
Also, if Cornetto did remove the chocolate, that person would probably have to go into hiding.
They’d better run instead
I don’t think there’s a hole deep enough to keep them safe.
I thought it was a great addition! I remember when the ice cream dripped savagely through the hole, making a mess of your hand…
That’s just a bad opinion.
That’s the last satisfying bite!
yeah, but how are you going to suck all the ice cream out the bottom of the cone with that giant piece of chocolate in the way?
Why would I suck the ice cream? Ya’ll telling me you can’t like the ice cream fast enough to prevent it from melting?
The chocolate is required, it’s ‘fired’ Into the wafer to coat the entire inside of the cone with a layer of chocolate. This protects the Wafter from absorbing water from the ice team and going soggy. Source: Worked 4+ years in a ice cream factory and was curious myself. Plenty of features of food are often a necessity that is marketed as a feature
Huh. I never thought of that as a reason for the chocolate. And it works both ways, the wafer protects the chocolate from melting.
Smart!
I really want a Cornetto now…
And yet somehow every cone I’ve ever eaten has been… Not soggy, but absolutely not crisp in any way. Like wet cardboard. Still some structure but certainly not as firm as it should be.
Probably thawed slightly at some point, most likely from shop to freezer.
My memory suggests that they used to be crisper in the past. Mainly from remembering times a Cornetto like would drop a bunch of wafer on the floor, they don’t appear to do that anymore.
Just being a kid could also be a reason for that tho.
You might be mashing it in your memories with the super crispy / sugar coated / super thin waffle cones you get at something like a creamery store in an outlet mall? Those would snap like a crisp chip with a book dropped on it if you dropped them.
I actually hate crispy cones… Cornetto are good, crunchy but not hard.
More soggy ice cream cones I say. Who’s with me ✊️

The world needs more ice cream cone engineers 🫡
You can buy plenty of icecream cones without that chocolate in the bottom. I’m sure it makes it easier, but it is definitely not impossible to industrially massproduce icecream cones without them.
I bet you were a pretty big wheel down at the ice cream factory
I like them.
And it’s either that or wobbly waffles as soon as the ice melts a bit.
That chocolate at the bottom is so well loved that a company sells cone ends filled with chocolate.
I like them, I’ll die on this hill.
I think the thing is too sweet. And probably just a trick so you crave another one after you ate it. If they were made of real chocolate or a nice bitter dark chocolate, i’d probably like it.
I don’t think that even Slannesh themselves would agree with your username. They aren’t the indecisive mollusk that Tzeench is, but they seem to question their own place in reality nonetheless.
That’s almost the best part. Some actually have the waffle part entirely coated in chocolate to prevent it getting soggy. Plus thin layer of chocolate plays nice with the vanilla or strawberry inside.
This is the same kind of deviant that doesn’t eat the middle of a cinnamon roll.
All edge brownie enjoyers
People don’t eat the center? Why? Like I know it can be kinda dry depending on the bun, but like just scoop up some of the residue on the edge of whatever container it was in.
Give it to me then. I’ll eat them the same way I eat your left over pizza crust and shrimp tails. 😤
I can understand the crust, I eat it myself, but the full shrimp tails?
Okay, I’ll eat shrimp tails sometimes, hell I eat the end of chicken bones until they get all splintery
But you say leftover… Do you just like, pop a handful in your mouth one by one? And is this something that’s surprisingly satisfying, or just ok?
It’s mostly just a vessel for cocktail sauce. It’s still shrimpy enough, not as satisfying as the meat but still good if you don’t mind the crunchiness. As a kid, my parents didn’t eat the tails and I would take them (and the parsley used for garnish) and eat it because it was still good.
Okay, that flavor maths out much better, I can picture it
