Sugar cone technology escapes Dairy Queen

Here's the thing. We've come a long way with ice cream technology. Those ucky-tasting cardboard-texture cones have long evolved into much tastier sugar cones - even waffle cones. Last time I checked, these modern ice cream accessories were available at most, if not all ice cream vendors.

Except Dairy Queen. Apparently, the sugar cone recipe is protected by some secret trademark agreement that prohibits probably the leading seller of frozen treats (in Canada) from being able to get and use the product. Well, that's the only explanation I can come up with.....

Maybe they're just trying to send the message that they are not followers of trends. Of course their customers suffer, so I don't quite get the logic, but maybe that's it.
