Milkshakes are usually described as flavored milk and ice cream beverages, usually lavishly decorated and served cold. The first written mention, dating from 1885, was somewhat different, and the word was used to refer to a whiskey drink, similar to eggnog, which was used as a health remedy.
At the end of the 19th century, milkshakes were already prepared as milk-based drinks made with flavored syrups. The invention of malted milk powders which contained dried milk, malted barley, and wheat flour, along with the popularization of electric blenders, inspired the creation of a more familiar milkshake version.

Frozen yogurt is a frozen dessert treat made with yogurt and (sometimes) other dairy products and flavorings. It is lower in fat than ice cream due to the use of milk instead of cream. Frozen yogurt is usually served with numerous toppings such as strawberries, bananas, or chunks of cookies and candy.
The first frozen yogurt was produced in the 1970s in New England, but the name of its inventor is still a mystery. Originally, it was made as a low-fat option for people who consumed ice cream, but it wasn't a big success due to the fact that most Americans preferred the sweet ice cream over the tart frozen yogurt.

Originally, Idaho russet potatoes used to be roasted by children who would bury them in hot coals. Today, they are a simple, classic, yet flavorful pleasure. Large and oval-shaped Idaho russet potatoes are baked in the oven with their skins intact until they develop a fluffy texture - a byproduct of their high starch content.
Their skins get split open and are then topped with sweet butter, freshly ground salt and black pepper, a dollop of sour cream, chives, parsley, crumbled bacon, minced chiles, or tabasco sauce, but anything can be a topping if one's imaginative enough.
