The Weirdest Ice Cream Flavors from Around the World

Wasabi Pea Dust

In New York City’s West Village, the city’s gay heritage is everywhere — even in the ice cream shops. Their most famous eatery is called Big Gay Ice Cream, and its bright rainbow exterior and pounding music makes it easy to spot from blocks away.

While most of their in-house flavors are pretty typical, they have an ice cream truck that they use to test out some of their more experimental offerings. One of their most unique was vanilla ice cream rolled in crushed wasabi peas. If you love wasabi or sushi, this is the ice cream for you — it’s sweet, crunchy, and just slightly spicy.

GODZILLA has returned to our menu for a limited run. Remember that one from our truck days? We roll the ice cream in crushed wasabi pea dust and it’s equally delicious on vanilla or chocolate. It even works with our two special flavors, cheesecake and lemon. pic.twitter.com/lyhZ8MDgxj
