Crazy weird ice cream

[canesisters]

I'm a little bit sleep deprived and haven't had nearly enough coffee yet so just ignore this if it's entirely insane...

Has anyone ever tried making ice cream from things like cucumbers or tomatoes??? I mean, we toss chopped up fruit in there without a thought... why not something else (and probably some extra sugar too)?
Just a thought...


<~~heads over for another cup of coffee.. and ends up standing in front of the copier wondering why she's there....

Gilroy California bills itself as the garlic capital of the world. Every year, during their garlic festival they serve garlic flavored ice cream.

That actually sounds pretty good, but doesn't really use up a whole lot of cucumbers.

Not sure the tomato ice cream sounds as appealing.

When I visited Spain, we were in a park and an ice cream vendor was there. The flavor that I remember most was, fish flavored ice cream. Why? Why would anyone make fish flavored ice cream? I did taste it, just because it was so weird. Yup, it was awful!

I would be game for trying a lot of different ice creams - but I would have to say NO to fish ice cream. ick!

I ACCIDENTLY had garlic ice cream once. (I do not recommend it.) I was making a sundae and dropped some chopped nuts onto the kitchen counter. I swept them onto my sundae from there... Left over garlic powder (from dinner prep) and all. Ugh!

Garlic ice cream might not be the best idea, and probably would not be all that good, or even not good, but I would at least try it.

Fish ice cream? No. If I had some in my mouth it would immediately be expelled.
