Corn ice cream ?It's great.I like it very much. I always eat it since I was a child.Wow How could you know about it :hug: It's the product of a Chinese milk company.Its milk is bad, but the ice cream is delicious.

I studied in China for a summer and decided to go crazy trying new things. One of those was corn ice cream. I also tried various ramen, a ton of different chip flavors, more variety of mango then I knew existed, various animal parts I normally do not eat, some very strange looking vegetables/fruit that I do not know the name of, and milk from I believe yak when I was in the Gansu area.

Have you ever tried Cold Stone? The Cookie Minster is the boss :)

No.I didn't know about it an hour ago.But I'm not good at remembering names.Usually I hang out on the street and find a Ice cream shop that already looks beautiful.


I really like the name of the store

Cold... Stone...

So simple, so elegant :)

It sounds like a happy summer :p But various animal parts I normally do not eat too.Hundreds of mutton food in Gansu is my favorite.I love mutton .I plan to go to Australia or New Zealand to eat local mutton in the future.

Chicken feet, pork feet, liver of various animals, tried intestines once, did not like. Had heart also once. I fell in love with the street food. So goood. I am an adventurous eater for the most part. I am willing to try almost anything once (though I refuse to eat brain). Must admit, did not like jellyfish.
Tried a Chinese take on American food, was interesting and a lot better then the Spanish take I tried. Corn on pizza took some getting used to.

I prefer a locally owned Ice Cream place here called Creole Creamery. I find they are better, tenfold, over ColdStone.

My mom is allergic to nuts, to the point of us having to use her Epi-Pen and rush to the hospital because she goes into anaphylaxis.

I took her to Coldstone ONCE. There I watched them put together another customer's nut-filled sundae, decide there wasn't enough ice cream, then PUT THE SAME ICE CREAM SPADE THEY JUST MIXED NUTS INTO THE DESSERT BACK INTO THE ICE CREAM CONTAINER.

I said, "Hey -- you know you just mixed nuts with that spade -- and you put it back into the ice cream...."

And the person behind the counter said, "So?"

Now, if you work in food prep, you should know about cross contamination. You really should.

"If someone is allergic to nuts, you've contaminated that tub of ice cream, and they could die from it you know."

The person behind the counter just shrugged and went on doing what they were doing.

I got my mom out of there. I had been there with my nieces before and thought "overpriced for melty ice cream" but "actively not giving a shit about killing customers" made it the last time I ever went in.

Sent an email to corporate; got no response, so I guess they don't give a shit either.

It's scary how little some people give a crap about allergies and intolerances. Frankly, such people shouldn't be allowed to work with food.

I'm coeliac, so I'm not allergic, but do become seriously ill -- often for a prolonged period -- if I eat gluten.

Anyway, I once ate at this place near where I was staying for a few days. It was the only place within goodness-knows-how-far, and I popped in and checked their menu, and I asked "is anything on the menu gluten-free?" They informed me the burgers were 100% beef; after verifying they meant that they were gluten-free, I ordered (no bun), and realised -- in about two mouthfuls -- that there was no way these burgers were 100% beef (you could taste the filler).

Complaints got nowhere.

On the good side, most places these days are generally better-informed about preventing cross-contamination and things like... ooh... not lying about the ingredients to make a sale.

I think jellyfish is delicious.I sometimes go straight to the beach and buy jellyfish from fishermen.The most delicious jellyfish I have ever tasted is made by my friend's grandmother.His father had several trawlers.The secret is that she used the best and freshest jellyfish.

For me I like to have sushi with wasabi, soy sauce, and the Japanese rice wine :)

If the rice wine isn’t available, I do green tea

I like pork feet but haven't tried chicken feet. Liver depends on the cook. Heart is delicious- I always save it from a deer, even if the other hunters look at me like I'm crazy.
Can't speak for the chinese take on brain, but cajunstyle it's delicious.

Maybe I was just unlucky. The problem wasn't the taste, it was the mouth-feel.

I grew up in kosher style so things like pig meat where a no no, and chicken feet where not easy to access. Heart was also not easy since none of my family are hunters.

I love chicken feet. It's a popular street food in the Philippines. They are known for their amazing street food which am very proud of.

Nah :(

I avoid direct consumption of ginger, onions and garlic

I’m okay with adding for flavoring but I don’t like eating

You like?
