Describe the incident with the vanilla ice cream. Why was it so upsetting for Nilda?
lyudmila [28]

Explanation:

As Sophie informed her that they'll get ice cream today, then Nilda was quite enthusiastic and assured Sophie how she would enjoy vanilla ice cream, Nilda was thinking that they'll get some healthy food today. They saw it put in bins, and Nilda got much more interested. Nilda was delighted to reveal a strawberry ice cream at the flat, and sat down to taste it. It sounded strange from ice cream with vanilla.

It was doughy, sticky and slippery as she placed it in her teeth. She spit it out, remembering that it was vegetable oil, not vanilla ice cream. Nilda was really irritated.
