Per N.Y. Times by Isabel Kershner 2/19/13 dateline Jerusalem - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel has an ice cream budget of $2700. a year. That equates to $52. per week which is more than my wine budget. His favorite flavor is pistachio - coincidentally, pistachio nuts are one of the premier exports of Iran - but doubt Bibi would entertain from that source. He spent his high school years in the Philadelphia suburbs so perhaps that might be the source of his sweet tooth. He has since cancelled the contract with the ice cream parlor but other consumers have flocked to the place to make up for any lost business. As they say "There is no such thing as bad publicity."
