Moon mist is an ice cream flavour popular in the Atlantic Canadian provinces of Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and New Brunswick, as well as Newfoundland and Labrador.[1] Believed to have been created in Nova Scotia in the 1960s, the ice cream is an unusual combination of banana, grape and bubble gum flavours and is sold by many of the large regional dairy producers.[2][3][4] These flavours are not fully blended together.

Oh my goodness! That sounds amazing!

Ooh my sister went to school in Nova Scotia. Gonna have to ask about this! I remember her bringing back some interesting potato chips, not sure if this was mentioned but it was a long time ago.

I can't wrap my mind around bubble-gum flavored foods. I associate the taste with "don't eat".

Bubble-gum flavor is just artificial strawberry from like 100 years ago. Actual fake strawberry got better so bubble-gum became its own flavor.

I'm fine with it most of the time, but Irn-Bru was a step too far.

Bubble Gum flavor is the worst flavor of bubble gum. Even the super "spicy" cinnamon flavored joke gum is better.

forbidden flavor

(i can't stand anything bubblegum flavored lol)

Superkid from Laura Secord when I was a kid was the best flavour that's ever existed. I believe it is what morphed into the "sour blue" flavour but it was so much more back then.

Moon mist, wet paint and shark attack are the best flavors of classic hard ice cream, pure delicious nostalgia! And best of all multiple flavors in one so you don't have to pick just one flavor

What colorful names that leave so much room for guessing! How would you describe the flavors of wet paint and shark attack?

[-] aturtlesdream@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Wet paint is vanilla and bubble gum with a swirl of cherry. Shark attack is blue-raspberry and vanilla with a swirl of raspberry. I always picked the most colorful flavors as a kid and these never disappointed

Forget moon mist, how do i just get grape flavored ice cream?!

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah that sounds delightful

[-] ccunning@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Doesn’t sound great but I definitely want to try it now…

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Right? Sounds interesting at least.

Makes me this of the Superman ice cream that’s popular in some areas of the US
