When Bad Things Happen to Perfectly Good Ice Cream

[billroper]

By way of johno, I present a fine collection of really bad ice cream flavors that actually exist.

daisy_knotwise once invented "Tomato Shrimp Bisque" ice cream when she needed a really bad one for an improv sketch. Mercifully, it doesn't appear above.

My standard example of a disgusting ice cream flavor (which I've thankfully never actualy encountered and fervently hope doesn't actually exist) is Chicken Ripple.

In a previous life, I was an undergrad at Penn State's main campus. Their College of Agriculture had a good sized dairy herd and a full dairy and creamery operation. The best part was The Creamery - an ice cream shop on campus that sold their own ice cream.

Every year, there was some kind of a contest where the Dairy Science seniors would invent new ice cream flavors, some of which wound up for sale at The Creamery. Legend had it that many had tried, but none had ever produced a successful Beer ice cream. (Why yes, Penn State was a big party school back then).

I understand that Baskin Robbins used to have a program that would make custom flavors if you paid them enough. Someone ordered Beer ice cream and they dutifully made it for him.

Of course, I have no idea if it was any good or not.

Depending on the alcohol content, it would be really difficult to freeze.
