A German ice cream parlor has expanded its menu with a skin-crawling offering: cricket-flavored scoops with dried brown crickets on top.
一間德國冰淇淋店擴展其菜單，新增一項令人起雞皮疙瘩的選擇：蟋蟀口味的冰淇淋，上面有乾燥的咖啡色蟋蟀。
The unusual confection is available at Thomas Micolino’s store in southern Germany’s town of Rottenburg am Neckar.
這種不常見的甜點在德國羅滕堡鎮南部托馬斯．米科利諾的店販售。
Micolino has a habit of creating flavors that are far outside Germans’ typical preferences for strawberry, chocolate, banana and vanilla ice cream.
米科利諾習慣創造遠遠超過德國人對草莓、巧克力、香蕉、香草冰淇淋的典型偏好的口味。
In the past, he’s offered liver sausage and Gorgonzola cheese ice cream as well gold-plated ice cream for 4 euros per scoop.
過去，他以每球4歐元的價格提供肝泥香腸和藍紋起司的冰淇淋，以及鍍金冰淇淋。
“I am a very curious person and want to try everything,” Micolino said. “I’ve eaten a lot of things, including a lot of strange things, and crickets were something I still wanted to try, also in the form of ice cream.”
米科利諾說：「我是一個非常好奇的人，什麼都想嘗試，我吃過很多東西，包括許多奇怪的東西，蟋蟀仍然是我想試試看的東西，而且是以冰淇淋的形式。」
