We Utahns love ice cream! In fact, the state ranks 8th in the country for ice cream consumption. We have plenty of national chain shops, such as Baskin Robbins, Cold Stone or Sub Zero. There are also tons of great fast-food joints that serve killer shakes (hello, Iceberg!) But for this list, I stuck to old-fashioned ice cream parlors that serve locally-produced ice cream.
- Aggie Ice Cream, Logan
