What's your favourite ice cream flavour - mint choc chip, rum and raisin? Well, how about crocodile...?
That's the unique new flavour on offer at the Sweet Spot restaurant in Davao City in the Philippines.
The owners of the store, husband and wife Dino and Bianca Ramos, have been selling the ice cream ever since they received a batch of croc eggs from Dino’s uncle.
What started off as an experiment quickly turned into one of the most popular treats they sell.
"Of course it is regular ice cream and doesn’t taste of croc meat," says Dino.
"It’s only the eggs we use. But they do make delicious ice cream.
"Because crocs are an endangered species, we only get the eggs that do not hatch or are surplus."
Crocodile eggs are said to be 80% yolk and much healthier than chicken eggs.
