I watched a thing on the food network once about an ice cream shop that had all these really odd flavors of ice cream. They had the traditional ones but their unique 'thing' was to have weird flavors of ice cream. Sort of, if you can think of it, we'll try and make it at least once type of deal.
Most of them were way more, uh, unique than the bacon ice cream! =)
actually, its probly the same place, I pulled the pic from a washpost story about an ice cream shop in Delaware. Next time I'm at the beach, I'm going!
They also had BBQ flavored. Like, made with real NC BBQ sauce. I think that ones for Mark though...
Although it may seem wrong, your taste buds like combinations of sweet + salty. I imagine that many of you have put bacon bits on your salad before, but had a sweet salad dressing (say, honey mustard or french). Its the same flavor principle. And I know some of you have eaten a french fry and then imbibed some milk shake (or frosty, if you prefer Wendy's). It doesn't seem rational that potato and ice cream would work, but it tastes good. Thats because of the salty/sweet flavor explosion.
I mean, maybe I could see that flavor being disgusting if they had real fatty strips of uncooked bacon in there. Although, that is probably more of a consistency issue than a flavor issue... Perhaps my willingness to try that flavor stems from my severe allergy to milk products. I simply crave what I shouldn't have.
My favorite ice cream flavors are Cookies n' Cream and Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby, which has fudge-covered pretzels in it. Why not fudge-covered bacon pieces?
