Ironically?

Ironically, perhaps, August 21 is National Spumoni Day in the US.

Call me ironically challenged, but I don't get it. Could someone please spell out why this date would be "ironic"? -- 21:48, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

I don't get it either... Dropped by the discussion link to see if there was info there about the "ironically" section. Guess not. 68.84.81.112 (talk) 03:24, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Previously, the article said Spumoni was more likely to be found in winter (which I certainly do not believe) and therefore it is ironic that "Spumoni Day" is August. I fixed those sentences. - AKeen (talk) 15:03, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The portion regarding Argentinean popularity is marked as citation needed, but I am unsure what would qualify as citation. From personal experience I know that spumoni is available in Argentina, and the history of Argentina itself, like in the US, features significant Italian immigration, which naturally transplanted italian foodstuffs and culture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.134.196.39 (talkcontribs)

vs. Neapolitan

This article contradicts the Neapolitan ice cream article, which states that Spumoni was created in the United States after Neapolitan. XSG 03:11, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Labor Induction?

I was suprised to see no mention of the (supposed) Labor Induction benefits of Spumoni. Has anyone else heard or read of such claims? --Calvin November t/c on 22:42, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
