In a bid to create something new and unique, chefs often get creative and push the envelope. However, some bizarre takes have of late left foodies with a bad taste in their mouths. The latest one going viral is an ice-cream sandwich–loaded with cheese.

While the concept of an ice cream-filled sandwich–with mostly butter cookies–is not new, the video doing the rounds on Twitter shows one with actual bread. Yes, in the video circulating widely, a street-food vendor is seen cutting white bread into heart-shaped portions and applying butter and strawberry jam on it.

Then the man is seen generously grating a small chocolate bar and covering the surface. However, then things quickly go awry as he is seen loading it with a big amount of grated cheese! As if that was not enough, the vendor is then seen slicing up two milk-chocolate ice cream bars and carefully placing them on top of it.

Now, cutting a smaller heart into the bigger bread slice for decorative purposes, he covers up the sandwich before serving it to his customers. The video then pans to reveal the name of the stall–Hitesh Sandwich, reportedly from Bhavnagar, Gujarat.

While most were confused and asked what was the need, others were angry, saying the video ruined both the ice cream and the sandwich for them.

This “sandwich” just blew my mind. Who came up with this combination & how did they find a market for it? I love Gujarati food but I draw the line at this invention. https://t.co/BmAt5OtZ6Z

However, this is not the first sweet dish from Gujarat that has offended the taste buds online. A video of a chaat with mango ice cream and cheese went viral last year.
