but but! What's wrong with just white vanilla soft serve? Why does it NEED to be any other color? And I agree.. AC is for aquariums, not food!

Clementine's Creamery in St. Louis makes a "Black Ash Cherry" flavor that is out of control good - the cherry flavor isn't overly sweet and kind of has a slow release, but then you get a bite of a sour cherry and the whole thing together is really just perfection - even its grey hue :)

I agree with Courtney. Activated charcoal is used (in surprisingly small amounts) in A&Es (ERs in the States) to treat overdoses and poisonings. Anyone taking critical medication orally should avoid any product containing activated charcoal. I used to bake black sourdoughs made with AC until a hospital doctor customer took me to one side and explained the implications of selling it. I hate to think what damage is being done by the recent fad for brushing teeth with AC.

Activated charcoal can bind to medicines, such as birth control, heart meds, blood thinners, rendering them ineffective. Don't eat things with charcoal in them. It's a Really Bad Idea.

I use to get licorice ice cream at a parlor here in Kansas City. I would love a recipe if anyone has one.
