Dairy Queen

The seasonal Dairy Queen location may lose their franchise after 73 years. The community is hoping they can prevent his.

Next time you grab yourself a soft-serve ice cream cone I want you to think about this, the very first Dairy Queen ever in the whole world was opened in a small Illinois city.

I vividly remember making the Orange Julius in the Quincy Mall a regular part of my routine. For the life of me, I can't remember when it closed, but it made me wonder out loud why Orange Julius seems to have disappeared from Illinois entirely or did it really?

It started out as an idea born from a cow - quite literally. What has become Dairy Queen began in a small Illinois building that still stands today although now it serves a completely different purpose.

While the world stayed indoors due to the height of the Pandemic, DoorDash was having no problems moving on up in the food delivery market.

There is nothing quite like a classic soft-serve ice cream cone from Dairy Queen. And if you are looking for a special treat here in the Land of Lincoln, why not head to the Oldest Dairy Queen in Illinois, which has been serving customers from the same location for over 75 years.

There's a good chance you've had ice cream at this place.

We've all been there before, having to take the long way around due to never-ending road construction.

The companies pumping out food products are really trying hard to make fall happen.

I scream, you scream, you know the rest ... we want free ice cream.
