Japan is King of weird ice cream flavors?!

If you feel bored with the regular ice cream people usually buy, here are some odd ice cream flavors, directly from Japan.

ice_cream_viagra

Natural Viagra Ice Cream! Just what the ice cream shops have been missing – Viagra flavored ice cream. I just didn’t know Viagra had a flavor, nor do I want to know what it’s like. (Source)

ice_cream_fish

Fish-flavoured ice-cream from Japan! Weird foods are plenty in East-Asia, but although fish and ice-cream are two perfectly normal ingredients, combining them together just seems wrong! (Source)

ice_cream_sesame

Japanese Black Sesame Ice Cream – Most impressed by the deep colour of
the ice cream and the fact that it’s dusted with ground sesame seeds. The contrast of the strawberry Pocky stick was rather cute. (Source)

ice_cream_octopus

Want to tantalize the taste buds with a tentacle? If so, Octopus Ice Cream is the go. Japanese have been able to come up with an amazing variety of uses for octopus, ranging from delicacy to p0rn0 movie props. Little wonder that octopus has found its way into ice cream, then. (Source)

ice_cream_charcoal

Charcoal Ice Cream, a dark grey coloured ice cream that I have no idea about the taste – but I am guessing it’s not that nice. (Source | Photo)

    Viagra? Charcoal? When they’re not particularly enjoyable (or edible) food stuff in their original form, why would I want and ice cream versions??

    I’m sure the flavor is hard to describe…

    I think i would try the Black Sesame one, although i have no idea what that would actually taste like.

    Most countries have certain ice cream flavors that are fairly unique to their region

    Some of the more unusual from around the world include Sweet Corn ice cream in Malaysia, Chilli ice cream in Indonesia and Taro or Sesame Seed ice cream in Korea

    … although Viagra, Octopus and Charcoal might have them beat
