Time has virtually stood still at the General Store since Ohio Magazine's last official stop for ice cream in 1983. John Sukosd is still the proprietor. Firewood, worms, and other sundries are readily available for vacationers and locals as always. However, change is inevitable. During the Summer of 1998, the old dipping cabinet died and the consequences are still felt today. In this instance, change was for the better. Whereas the old cabinet stored six varieties of ice cream the new one holds eight. Now with more room to play with, expect a few new flavors to appear. Mr. Sukosd still makes all of his ice cream, including the renowned Butter Crunch, a recipe which he inherited from the previous owner decades ago. Butter Crunch is a mix of French vanilla with vanilla cookie crumbs and other goodies added in. The traditional flavors that were standards for years have stayed, but new fangled flavors such as fat free yogurt have been added from time to time to keep things fresh. Change tastes good. (NOTE - I have not dropped by since 1999 - so call ahead).
