I scream, you scream, we all scream for.. jellyfish ice cream?
I'm pretty tame when it comes to my ice cream desires. I mean I thought 32 flavors at Baskin-Robbin's was luxurious. But apparently in Japan thanks to a growing population of the pesky individuals, they quite enjoy Jellyfish flavored ice cream.
I only know one person who would like this and his name is Sponge Bob.
