Read the paragraph from "Myths About the Founding Fathers." Thomas Jefferson was NOT, however, the first person to introduce ice cream to the United States. Ice cream had been around for hundreds of years before Jefferson. A kind of ice cream was “invented” in China by mixing milk and rice into snow. Roman emperors used to serve flavored snow. King Charles I kept his ice cream recipe a secret from the rest of England. There’s no evidence to prove that Americans had to wait for Jefferson to come up with the idea before they could indulge in the popular treat. What was the truth? Jefferson liked to serve ice cream at his dinner parties. The rumor took off from there.

A. It describes how Jefferson's solution to a problem led to a made-up story about him.

B. It explains how stories about Jefferson have evolved over time.

C. It describes specific causes for a myth about Jefferson.
