About This Quiz

Did you know that Dairy Queen has been around since 1940? It's one of the oldest chains in America and has been serving up some pretty delicious treats for generations. Lots of places have ice cream for sale, but not a lot of places ever became synonymous with it. 

There's just something iconic about that Dairy Queen soft serve cone with the little swirl on top or the treat-filled Blizzard that they blend it together and then turn upside down in the cup just to show you how thick and delicious it is. For some of us, it's hard to even imagine summer without a trip to Dairy Queen for a banana split or a dipped cone or something. It was a part of growing up!

Speaking of growing up, because Dairy Queen is so linked to that feeling of joy on a hot summer's day from when you were a kid, we're pretty sure we can build on that. If you look over the Dairy Queen menu with us and pull out some of your favorites, we're confident we can narrow down which state in the South you grew up in. Grab yourself a big, red spoon and a napkin and dig into this quiz!
