Using the negation "adverb" as the subject of the sentence.

Also very cute sentence.

[Simon718602]

I don't understand why 'bon' and not 'bonne' as la glace is feminine?

[Q8Wq10]

Peut-être que "rien" est masculin.

[SilverSecret]

I think it's because at that point in the sentence you don't know you're talking about a feminine object yet, so it defaults to masculine.

[GraemeSarg]

Even if we did know, the indefinite pronoun "rien", like the subject pronoun "ce" and the Impersonal "il", is effectively genderless and defaults to masculine:
"La glace à la vanille, rien n'est aussi bon que ça.".

[enne27]

why is la used here and not de la?

[GraemeSarg]

Because this is "vanilla ice cream (in general)", not "(some) vanilla ice cream".

But this sentence is also true of "some vanilla ice cream", so "de la glace à vanille" would have worked as well.
