Answers:
The ice cream sandwich was probably invented in the summer of 1900 on the Lower East Side of New York City. July 5, 1900 Washington Post contains this story from the New York Tribune: "The ice cream sandwich man, who sells quarter-inch layers of alleged ice cream between tiny slabs of water wafers, did a big business during the hot spell and his field of operation was within the district inhabited by the Russians, and his pushcart was elaborately decorated with signs in Hebrew characters. He made the sandwiches quickly in a tin mold, and was kept so busy that he could not make change, but insisted on receiving the actual price for each ice cream sandwich – 1 cent."
God! For sure.... it's just too good to be true... My favorite Ice Cream Sandwhich is, "It's It Ice Cream Sandwich" (IT'S IT
A scoop of ice cream, sandwiched between two old-fashioned oatmeal cookies, and dipped in dark chocolate. This product is available in Vanilla, Chocolate, Mint and Cappucino.)
