Which of these flavours would you be most and least likely to try?!

Kendal Mint Cake Ice Cream sounds really scrummy, and I am addicted to Eccles Cakes when in England, so would have to give that one a try, but as for Sausage and Mash or Hotpot flavoured ice cream.....well I guess I won't be rushing off to Harrods just yet!

I'd probably try the kendal Mint Cake and the Shortbread ice creams. But just the thought of Haggis ice cream Shocked has me running for the exit.

call me boring but why would you go for most of those flavours when you could stick with good old mint choc chip or strawberry. Mind you, shortbread sounds good. But making iceream with offal is just wrong.

Which I would try...? Probably all of them (but maybe not all at once, and so long as someone else is paying - this is Harrods afterall) just out of curiosity.

Living and working in Kendal, I'd of course have to try the Kendal Mint Cake one out of duty.

If I could get a free taste, like you can at many ice cream places, I might try Clotted Cream, Eccles Cake, Shortbread and Kendal Mint Cake.

However, I mostly agree with Tabitha Symonds, I'll mostly stick to good fruit or nut or chocolate flavors of gelato!! Hearts

I'd try a couple for a laugh, but choc chip mint will always be my favourite Very Happy

I like 'Chunky Bacon Ice Cream' as a name (number 87 in that last link). It kind of implies that just plain ol' 'Bacon Ice Cream' isn't enough.

As for 'Raw Horseflesh Ice Cream'... neigh thanks.
