There is usually, noting a few rogue exceptions, a general consensus amongst people that ice cream is one of the best treats in the dessert game. Many people tend to only use this delectable snack to celebrate a particular occasion, or to praise a job well done, in order to avoid overindulging in the special treat. I, on the other hand, have yet to find an inappropriate time to eat ice cream. It has always been a guilty pleasure of mine, so every time the opportunity to eat ice cream presents itself to me, I lack the self-control needed to refrain from eating the creamy snack. I even go out of my way to find excuses to eat ice cream. Here are 27 reasons to eat ice cream (guilt-free).
27. You're sad.
Obviously, this one is pretty self-explanatory. Nothing like ice cold creamery to numb the pain.
26. It's finals week.
No reason to cry over all of the projects you have due. Cry over ice cream, like an adult.
25. Finals week ends.
Celebratory scoop of deliciousness? Make it two.
24. You were dumped.
Calories don't count in matters of the heart.
23. You begin a new relationship.
The calories count, but it's not like you need to impress anyone now.
22. There are sprinkles.
Or any other fantastic toppings that may be lying around.

16. The ice cream is on sale.
It may not be free, but a fair discount is incentive enough to delight in an ice cream cone.

It may sound silly, but if you eat it while bundled up in a heated room you can trick yourself into thinking it's summer.
14. There is a commercial break.
Everybody knows commercial breaks are designated snack times.
