Hard to top those ideas! Please market them! They all sound awesome.  
I’ll test them if you’d like. I had a burger on a pretzel bun, and it was to eat for!! Tough outside like rye bread, salty coating, soft and chewey inside… Mmmmmmm.

> The company was named after its co-founder, Joseph Edy. His partner was William Dreyer.

So Dreyer sold Dreyer’s Ice Cream in the west and Edy’s Ice Cream in the east.
