"The company that introduced the rest of the country to water ice has been going strong since 1984. The chain, which started in Bensalem, now has more than 500 locations across the country, including several in Philly. While the menu has grown significantly, traditional water ice or gelati (water ice plus custard) is still the best choice. The Swedish Fish flavor is a customer favorite." - Eater Staff, Dayna Evans, Sarah Maiellano
