Black ice cream is a divide between mind and curiosity. Your mind automatically warns you against pure black ice cream because it's abnormal, but if you're a foodie then your curiosity drives you towards trying it out. This ice cream was the creation of Nick Morgenstern, who tells @mic that the color is achieved by using a form of activated charcoal called coconut ash. The culinary genius said, “I had been monkeying around with coconut ash for a while and then I had this fancy chocolate bar that used [it]. We'd been wanting to put a coconut flavor on the board anyway so it was perfect." Apparently coconut ash very hard to find. Snapped this photo out front while @spoonuniversity tasted the flavor out to review on their snapchat channel!](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/579d3e04197aea7c6b823707/579e41bbe6f2e180db4aabb3/57a92ca8f66fa70bcce4161c/1470704812498/)
