In Evanston, Illinois, in 1875, a law was passed forbidding the sale of ice-cream sodas on Sunday. To get around the law, on Sundays enterprising soda jerks began serving ice cream with syrup but no soda water. The concoction became popular, and on weekdays customers began asking for "Sundays." City officials objected to naming the dish after the Sabbath, so the spelling was changed - and it has been "sundae" ever since.
