Not only Israel this summer comes with its terrible heat waves, but also Hong Kong. Now it turns out that the main summer hit in the city is actually tear gas ice cream. This is an ice cream cup for everything, the main ingredient of which is ground black peppercorns, which accurately reflect the taste of the tear gas that protesters suffered in the city during the long months of protests and riots against the local and Chinese governments.
"It really tastes like tear gas, at first it burns so hard to breathe when you taste the ice cream. The cup really made me need to drink lots of water afterwards," says a customer named Anita Wong, who decided to taste the new delicacy.
The glider owners were anonymously interviewed by the AP Network, saying: "I wanted to continue the mayor's protest against furthering our autonomy, especially during the Corona's social remoteness. So I looked for a mixture to remind the big gas clouds the police served here. Her voice is spicy black pepper and grinds it and then makes it Italian style ice cream that produces the closest feeling to the gas breath experience, "he said.
The store's owners not only allow customers to buy the ice cream, but also put protest stamps on the store's walls, slowly gnawing away on freedoms promised to Hong Kong back in 1997, when the city was transferred from British control back to the People's Republic of China. Anyway, when it comes to ice cream, it turns out to be a hit and despite the rigid social remoteness, and despite the fact that it sounds pretty shocking, every day it gets bought from dozens of dishes at $ 5 local. enjoy your meal.
