Merida, Venezuela – You might imagine that the shop selling the largest number of ice-cream flavours in the world would be in Italy or perhaps the US, but in fact it is in the Venezuelan city of Merida, as Will Grant discovered. After looking in the windows of a couple of ice-cream parlours but finding nothing more exciting inside than strawberry and vanilla, we eventually find Coromoto, opposite a church. The neon sign outside, with the words “Guinness Book of Records” written in pink, is an instant give-away but, once through the doors, it becomes even clearer that this is the place. The selection includes chilli, tomato, gherkin, onion, mushrooms in wine, garlic, and cream of crab.

Ditto. Stupid lactose-intolerance. Although, I don’t think that I’m really missing out by not being able to eat “gherkin” ice cream. Blech.

And you checked the little box thing? And your spam filter?
I’m only asking because I’m going to check it now to see if I get an email when/if you respond.
