Rhode Island #2 in US For Ice Cream Eating

Does every Rhode Islander view ice cream this way? Apparently so, according to a new ranking from Bundle.
How much ice cream does Rhode Island eat? More than every other state in the US except for just one, according to Bundle.

In a truly summertime data crunch (not a bad ice cream flavor), the website assessed ice cream consumption per capita based on credit card transactions at ice cream and frozen yogurt vendors. Rhode Island had the #2 highest consumption per capita, bested only by Washington, DC at #1. 

Following Rhode Island in the sweet ranking were Wisconsin at #3, Massachusetts at #4, and Texas at #5. Rounding out the rest of the Top 10 were Connecticut (#6), Delaware (#7), Utah (#8), New Hampshire (#9), and Kansas (#10).
