Eating ICE CREAM is America's favorite summertime thing to do. Technically, it says "ice cream OR popsicles" . . . but ice cream is doing the heavy lifting there.
60% love it, and another 35% like it. Only 1% said they HATE eating ice cream in summer.
Here are the 10 most popular summer activities, in order...
1. Eating ice cream or popsicles
2. Going on vacation

4. Road trips
5. Going to the beach
6. Hiking or nature walks
7. Swimming in a pool

10. Having a picnic
A few more that ranked high include:
