    My daughter asked if I remembered the name of something from her childhood, circa 70s-80s, and I didn't. Maybe someone among you will. It was a two piece, plastic ice cream cone shaped item. You unscrewed the top, filled it with ice cream, peanut butter or similar, then threaded it onto the base.
    With each twist of the base, the contents were pressed through a number of holes in the top to be licked away, repeating the process until the contents were exhausted.

    This is a favorite childhood memory of hers and she would like to try and
    find one. With a name, it might be easier to locate.

    Anyone remember such a thing?

    I grew up in the 70's and 80's and I never saw or heard of a gadget like
    that. I wish I knew!
