The fashionable ice-cream in China: the green-bean ice cream

Just before I had to re-boot on account of jet-lag, we discovered the fashionable ice-cream in Beijing, the green bean ice cream.

Honestly, it tastes terrible and I have been impressed that my friend Pascal tasted it in a deep way. Here is the effect it produced on me. To say the least, an awful taste that stays for hours in your mouth.

There were all sorts of weird tastes, that we may see one day arriving in our Countries...

I was a witness and can confirm that the taste of this ice cream was terrible !

Nope...we Chinese all love this green bean ice cream. It tastes great! (at least to me and my mom)

I love them too. I prefer the red bean ones though - only by a fraction.

You'd think this came from Japan, but actually it's from China: pea-flavoured ice cream. That strikes me as very...hmm - what's the word I'm looking for here? - freaking disgusting. Thanks to the French blogfather, Loïc Le Meur, for the... [Read More]
