For some reason that has never been explained--except by the fact that my parents learned English from people who used the words "pan," "pen," and "stereo" interchangeably--every time we got the vanilla-strawberry-chocolate ice cream from the store, we called it "Napoleon" ice cream. To this day, any time I order something with the word "Neopolitan" in it, I inevitably think of that inspiring French leader who conquered the world and offered his namesake to a brand of three-flavored ice creams.
