Weird Ice Cream Flavors in Japan (Some Will Scare You)

There is no doubt that people around the world consider Japan and its customs a little strange, though many people in Japan are likely thinking the same thing about other countries.

One of the weirdest things about Japan to many, is their unusual food or chocolate! And one of the most interesting ways to explore this is through the fun Japanese ice cream flavors. The following are some of the weirdest ice flavors you must try in Japan.

The Squid Ice Cream

Squid ink is consumed throughout Japan, so it makes sense that someone figured out a way to use it in a sweet treat. Now, squid ink or ikasumi started as nothing more than a novelty flavor; it was just something to delight daring ice cream eaters, but the flavor caught on. The ice cream looks pitch black, and it does have a fishy taste, so make sure you keep that in mind if you are going to give it a try.
