Ramen-Flavored Ice Cream For ‘Instant’ Gratification

Got a little riddle for you: How do you make the most convenient convenience store food even easier? Eliminate the need to chew.

Perfect for babies, old people and the terminally underpaid, miso ramen-flavored ice cream is apparently very real and, yes, even in Japan, very, very odd. Spotted at Namja Town, an indoor theme park in Tokyo, this instant wax and MSG-inspired concoction “kinda tastes like some weird peanut butter,” and while not necessarily bad, isn’t necessarily good either.

Don’t take my quoted word for it though, just check out some of the faces Youtuber Thisjapanesegirl made while trying it:
