I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! That stands true but only until the option ranges from classic vanilla, decadent chocolate to nutty butterscotch. Some go for strawberry, mango, black currant and more, but what if there is an ice cream flavour of corn, ghost pepper, lobster and Cheetos!? Yes, you read that right. And yes, these do exist in the same world as your favourite ice cream flavours! And so, when netizens were asked on Instagram to name the worst ice cream flavours they’ve come across, all things from innovative to straight-up cringy tastes cropped up in the responses!
Here are 8 of the most bizarre ice cream flavours in the world:
1. Biryani
Yes, we are as much un shock as you. But if famous chef Vinesh Johny is to be believed, he has had it somewhere in Hyderabad or Bangalore while thinking why as he kept eating it, he explained the post's comments. We wonder if it had cardamom, cinnamon and clove in it too!
2. Kidney Beans
We love it in tacos, quesadillas and love noshing over rajma chawal, but that’s about it. Can you imagine an ice cream of rajma? China can.
3. Blue Cheese
Pasta, pizza, sandwiches, rolls, cheese belongs to all this but ice cream? While a blue cheese ice cream might look like a stellar piece of art but to eat that is something we’ll let you decide. Yay or nay?
4. Bhindi
Perhaps the one to gross us the most, but chef Saransh Goila took the plunge when he had bhindi (okra)-flavoured ice cream in Surat! He revealed it in the comments on the post saying #truestroy and hoped that it doesn’t exist anymore!
5. Gulab Jamun
Oh, how we love this as a separate sweet dish! But will you love it the same way as ice cream?
6. Anjeer
Quite a tricky one, but anjeer or fig is one ingredient that is often added to halwas, shakes, pudding and pies. So maybe ice cream might not be a bad idea but might not suit everyone’s taste buds!
7. Pizza Ice Cream
You didn’t see this one coming, did you? Of course not! We fail to understand how this idea can even cross anyone’s mind, but here we are with someone in the world being subjected to it. But on the flip side, how about actually giving it a chance? We wonder what topping would it have!
8. Mint Chocolate Chip
Now this one can divide the internet! While some say mint chocolate chip is just like eating a toothbrush while some beg to differ and suggests that it is a delicious one to try. What do you think?
Which of these flavours would you love to try?
