Fact: Häagen-Dazs does not mean anything. Doris Hurley, daughter of founders Rueben and Rose Mattus, reported in the PBS documentary An Ice Cream Show (1999) that her father sat at the kitchen table, in 1961, for hours saying nonsensical words until he came up with a combination he liked. The reason he chose this method was so that the name would be unique and original. - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint1781.2 #42 5-14-13 4:21PMLike(5) Reply

We went to this. It was actually pretty cool. One of the CM's in charge of the horticulture team came out and shared some fun facts about the parks and how they preserve the environment and help local communities.
