I got all excited about some unappealing Japanese ice cream flavors when I found the story in Mainichi Daily News a while ago. I thought the lineup of fish, octopus, squid, ox tongue, sweet potato, fried eggplant, crab, corn, rice, wasabi, shrimp, eel, noodle, chicken wing, miso, and cactus flavored ice cream had everything pretty well covered, but now MDN has done it again. They’ve put up a new gallery of 21 flavors of ice cream you’re unlikely to find in the US:

• Raw Horseflesh Ice Cream
• Goat Ice Cream
• Whale Ice Cream
• Shark Fin Noodle Ice Cream
• Oyster Ice Cream
• Abalone Ice Cream
• Seaweed Ice Cream
• Deep Sea Water Ice Cream
• Spinach Ice Cream
• Garlic Ice Cream
• Sesame, Soybean and Dried Kelp Ice Cream
• Lettuce and Potato Ice Cream
• Wheat Ice Cream
• Curdled Bean Ice Cream
• Silk Ice Cream
• Chicken Ice Cream
• Stout (yes, dark beer) Ice Cream
• Potato Liquor Ice Cream
• Red Wine Ice Cream
• Tulip Ice Cream
• Cherry Blossom Ice Cream

Fish, octopus, squid, ox tongue, sweet potato, fried eggplant, crab, corn, rice, wasabi, shrimp, eel, noodle, chicken wing, miso, and cactus. Those may not sound like appetizing ice cream flavors, but it’s what they’ve got.
