[Clark does like Rocky Road himself, but they have other options he likes just as much. With Kryptonian appetites and a ten-year-old's sweet tooth, it's been necessary to buy extra. He snags a container of Strawberry Crunch before veering off to fetch some bowls and spoons for them.]
Be nice if all our problems could be solved with ice cream, huh?
( Lois is prying that lid off and it is refusing to comply by the time Clark's presenting bowls and spoons. She manages not to give a triumphant, "Hah!" when the lid does peel back and display this is a whole new quart of Rocky Road, pristine top about to be wrecked by two spoon wielding adults. )
Sure would make the dairy industry the most powerful force in the world. Plus whichever pharmaceutical giants make the generic lactose intolerance pills.
( Sliding one bowl over and stabbing into the ice cream with the spoon... and it cuts in smooth as butter. Lois smiles, mischievous, before she starts with a generous scoop into the bowl. )
Between you and Jon, we'd probably get endless sponsorship offers.
[He'd offer to help, but Clark is pretty sure that she'd prefer to defeat the stubborn ice cream lid on her own. And she does, so all's well. Aside from the kryptonite.]
I don't think it would be a good idea for Superman and Superboy to get caught up in corporate sponsorships. Maybe if the money went to charity or something.
[He starts scooping his own ice cream and yeah, it's just as generous. This is an ice cream gluttony kind of evening.]
