Why?
It's a marketing gimmick, that's all, don't think too much on it. If you do want to think too much on it, it's probably also a quality control proof. If your item doesn't pass this test then it obviously wasn't made correctly. Think of it like sailors testing the proof of alcohol to ensure it meet an agreed upon strength. If your DQ Blizzard dumps out all over the counter then it probably wasn't made correctly.
Because why would you do that? Do you also have a chain store where servers pour sulphuric acid over your cup to show that it doesn't melt?
Wait until you’ve been to a restaurant that serves things flambé.
They do it because a lot of milkshakes are made so thin and runny, or it sits on the counter for a few minutes and melts before getting to you.
Doing the flip shows that it's fresh, still cold, and thick.
But milkshakes are better when they're thin and runny, because it makes it a lot easier to drink them through a straw. Now I know why Dairy Queen does that but I don't understand why anyone would want a thick milkshake. I want to be able to drink mine, not eat it with a spoon.
then you would order a milkshake and not a blizzard
it's not a milkshake it's ice cream with candy mixed in to order. it's served with a spoon in a cup so you can get in a drive through and store it in a cup holder.
Yes, that's totally the same thing 😂
To show its thickness.
You're not too bright, eh?
