They have Magnum Ice Cream Bars in Honduras. They are good, but no need to worry, you only have to travel a few hours to get one, not all the way around the world.
i'd say this is pretty dead on. although, you forgot to mention walking beers. you have no idea how clutch those are until you can't have one.
