Reaction to How to Eat an Ice-Cream Cone

It is interesting how the author can dwell on such a topic for such an extended period of time. He was able to describe and put so much thought in the process of eating an ice cream cone. He also is able to do hold the reader’s attention for a long time with his creative and humorous style of writing. He showed how sometimes people act in such an odd fashion that it is humorous, especially if we ourselves do it sometimes. He broke the whole process of eating a cone into such detail and precise points that it was all too clear on how to eat an ice cream cone. He meticulously noted each detail that more often than not people just do without putting much thought into. He makes the reader more aware of these little details and thus, the reader feels connected to what the author is trying to say. The author pointed things out about the whole process that just made me think how I never thought about such things. So even if the essay was a bit lengthy, it was a very interesting read. In fact I was able to pick up a few things from it that I think I should be doing when it comes to eating ice cream.
