== Is Dean Peters the wrestler the same as Dean Peters the DQ PR guy? == |
|||
It says... |
|||
''In August, 2009, "One Million Moms", a project of the conservative Christian American Family Association announced on its website that Dairy Queen Director of Communications and Public Relations Dean Peters had contacted the project and said that Dairy Queen had removed its advertisement from the popular TV show The Secret Life of the American Teenager and would not advertise on the show again in the future.[37] One Million Moms also stated that Dairy Queen had added Secret Life to its "Do Not Air List" and its "Restricted List".[37] One of the concerns of One Million Moms was that "New character on the show is a gay, male high school freshman".[38]'' |
|||
... I clicked on the link for "Dean Peters" to figure out if he's a closetcase like all the other homophobes, but it took me to the page for some wrestler. This is a wild guess, but I don't think that they're the same Dean Peters. |

== Peanut Buster Parfait == |
|||
The section on Products contains two seemingly conflicting statements for the origin of the Peanut Buster Parfait: |
|||
"In 1971, the Peanut Buster Parfait, consisting of peanuts, hot fudge, and vanilla soft serve, was introduced by Forrest 'Frosty' Chapman in his St. Peter, Minnesota Franchise." |
|||
and: |
|||
"Another sundae made by Dairy Queen is the peanut buster parfait thoroughly enjoyed and invented by Patsy Franks in 1969." |
|||
The first is, I believe, correct, although I don't have an authoritative source for this. The second is subjective and seems to be a personal entry of unknown veracity. |

Well apparently they were never available in Colorado but they were available in other states, however now they're only available in Texas and nowhere else. |

Dairy Queen in Moline and Green River
[edit]The story of the founding of DQ as I grew up hearing it involved sites in Moline Illinois and in nearly Green River/Colona, and an investor named Morey Nelson. Nelson was a friend/mentor of my uncle. I often was with my cousin playing in their yard when Nelson pulled up in his old Buick; invariably, he brought a sack of Dilly Bars for us kids. The story I learned later was that Nelson, who was a stock broker, had been approached by the inventor of the soft serve machine, and ultimately helped finance DQ. A store in Moline was the first store of their joint venture, and they set up a warehouse of sorts in Green River. The Wikipedia article on sort serve mentions some of this.

Country Basket
