在当下,无论你生活在世界哪个角落,一定遇到过口味非同寻常的冰淇淋。下面是一些最奇特的冰淇淋的清单。
Blue Stilton Cheese
蓝色斯蒂尔顿奶酪味
One of those strong and very smelly (like sweaty socks, cheeses that some people love). Again why would you mix it with ice cream? Get this in Ireland.
这是一款味道非常冲,而且气味难闻的冰淇淋(闻起来像汗湿的袜子,有些人很喜欢这种奶酪味)。还是要说,为什么要把冰淇淋做成这种口味呢?你能在爱尔兰尝到这个味道。
Cod Fish
鳕鱼味
Oh dear, this is one that smells too fishy. The Japanese do love their fish.
哦,天哪,这是一款闻起来非常腥的冰淇淋。日本人确实是超爱吃鱼的。
Garlic

Maybe you can keep the vampires at bay with this one. Not sure where this originates from.

Horseflesh (Raw Horseflesh)

That’s right. Your favorite dessert tastes like raw meat. From Japan this is top of the list for gross and most horrible.
没错,你最爱的甜点尝起来像生肉。这种来自日本的冰淇淋是所列清单中最恶心、最可怕的。
Sardines and Brandy
沙丁鱼和白兰地混合味
The brandy part is OK but nobody gets the sardines part. This is really too weird for people’s tastes. You’ll find this in Puerto Rico.
白兰地味还可以接受,但是没人理解为什么会有沙丁鱼味。对人们的口味来说,这真的太奇怪了。你可以在波多黎各找到这款冰淇淋。
Sauerkraut

Why would anyone add pickled vegetables to spoil a delicious dessert? This one’s from Europe too.
为什么会有人用腌制的蔬菜的味道来毁掉一道美味的甜点呢?这款冰淇淋也来自欧洲。
Shark Fin

有些人听说过用鲨鱼鳍做汤,这听起来已经够可怕的了,可干嘛要糟蹋一道完美的甜点呢?这又是一款来自日本的冰淇淋。
Spaghetti and Cheese

Bits of spaghetti with cheese and sometimes served with raspberry sauce. Another one from Puerto Rico.

Enough to make you puke, don’t you think? You can get this in Italy.
