A few years back I remember reading a headline along the lines of:

"Google Android Ice Cream Cream Sandwich for Galaxy 2 available on Sprint"

And I thought that someone from just 5 years earlier would have been really confused.

Google used to name it's Android versions alphabetically, using deserts as the name. So Ice cream was their 8th version
