Does ice cream make you warmer?

i think i remember hearing on the show, ';beakman's world'; that ice cream, because of the sugar, makes you warmer.Does ice cream make you warmer?
Initially, you'll feel the coldness of ice cream when you taste it. However, when it gets metabolized in our body, that is when you get warmer. Ice cream contains 10 - 16% fat, 10 - 13% sugar, and 10 - 12% protein. All these will turn into energy according to this caloric breakdown:





1 g Carbohydrates (sugars) = 4 calories


1 g Protein = 4 calories


1 g Fat = 9 calories





Imagine how hot is that!Does ice cream make you warmer?
Never warmed me up yet lol.
not me
That may be true, I don't think that'll work with the human body.


Since this is JUST MY THOUGHT, ask the MythBusters.
its always made me cold, but i love it!!!
Try bourbon. It works faster than ice cream.
no
yes it's true. though it's frozen. the sugar and calorie content of the ice cream is enough to make you feel warm.
whoa! blast from the past, beakman's world. i think it's because of the milk not the sugar that would make you feel warm.
