We all scream for salad cream

In proof that not even brands are immune from the cabin fever-ideas of quarantine, Heinz UK has introduced “Creamz,” DIY kits that allow you to make ice cream of various Heinz condiments — ketchup, mayonnaise, salad cream, BBQ sauce and Saucy Sauce (basically a mix of ketchup and mayo). Each kit includes a recipe card, a reusable ice cream tub, and an engraved spoon and ice cream scoop. Oh, and whatever condiment you’re making ice cream of. Because you’re making ice cream out of condiments.

What counts as a “weird” ice cream flavor is obviously influenced by culture and tradition, and something like mayonnaise — which is just fat and oil — doesn’t actually seem that incongruous with the concept of ice cream when you break it down. It could probably work well! But also, say “Ketchup Creamz” out loud to yourself. No thank you.
