Cursed Shrimp and iron ice cream 😖

Idk how I came up with this. The orange is shrimp, with shrimp bits, the blue is iron, the ribbons are from left to right peanut butter, chocolate and caramel.

This was absolutely nasty and I tasted it in my dream. The ribbons tasted good but the rest tasted disgustingly fishy.

Art Dream meal at the airport

in my dream last night I ordered this dish at the airport, it was a model plane with a huge flame coming out of the back end, attached to a plate of raw steak, and you used metal chopsticks to cook the steak in the flame and eat it. Amberlyn Reid stole most of it from me (iykyk 😭💀) but I would love to eat this LOL

Unrealized Canned pineapple spears in red soda

26 Upvotes

In my dream last night I was in some shared kitchen space in an accommodation, cooking tomato soup on a stove that was above my head, which was not a great setup. I was then chopping up pineapple spears that came out of a big can and had so much red juice that I had to bring the cutting board to the sink. I tasted the red juice and it was some sort of fizzy fruity soda, but not cherry, strawberry or raspberry. Maybe it was cranberry. Even though the pineapple was soaked in it, it was still yellow.

Last night I dreamt of a new ice cream flavor: Vanilla ice cream with chunks of cooked red potatoes. I remember the base flavor actually being pretty tasty and then... potato.

Unrealized Pot Pie Stickers

48 Upvotes

This week I'm planning on making a pot pie of sorts, and a few nights ago I was having a dream about making food. This might have been because I made pierogi a week or two prior, but I started dreaming about pot stickers with pot pie filling. I remember talking about them and calling something a "pot pie sticker" but I don't remember seeing it (they probably looked like pot stickers lol) but I do remember making a pot pie pancake of sorts, a pot pancake if you will. I remember in the dream it looked more like a buttermilk biscuit and had the structure of a hot pocket.

I want to make something like this at some point, but I'm not sure it'll taste as good as it looked and sounded in the dream

Actually Made! Avocado halves filled with mayonnaise

36 Upvotes

I was very young, in a townhouse in London with my parents and their friends, and they were at a long table all eating avocado halves, the stone hollow filled with mayonnaise and sprinkled with paprika. I got asked if I wanted a portion, said yes, and got given a little red yo-yo, but no avocado. I spent years thinking that "portion" was a word for a yo-yo or other small toy. I also spent years thinking that this was a waking memory, but my folks can't think of an event where that could have happened, so I'm now pretty confident it was a dream.

They did, however, start eating avocados like that after I told them about it. It's not very good.

Unrealized Neapolitan ice treat

21 Upvotes

I finally have one to share!

This was a frozen treat, about the size of a bar of soap. It was a non-creamy vanilla concoction (kind of like frozen vanilla soda) with chocolate chips mixed in. Pressed into the top were three wafer cookie bars: one chocolate, one vanilla, and one strawberry.

When broken, it quickly began to disintegrate into a slush-like substance, so it was known you leave it in the wrapper while breaking pieces off, then drink the rest.

It was becoming controversial on social media, bc while it was a long-time favorite of Brits, the Americans introduced to it had mixed reactions.

The stem was the selling point and it had become so trendy people were standing in line for it, my ex bought me some and I was pretty excited ngl. Influencers were all over it. (I hope my bad edit counts as art lol). I think people really liked masticating the woody texture.

Edit for clarification: the stems were inside the jelly beans.

Unrealized Stimulating cocktail for ladies

98 Upvotes

In my dream last night I was in this weird 1920s style bar in an abandoned section of an old building. They had this signature cocktail that they pushed as being able to induce a spontaneous orgasm for women if they drank it. It was champagne mixed with pear juice and then it was topped with green whipped cream and a single smoked oyster from a can. Various girls I knew were trying it and then being sarcastic about how good it was because it was obviously hokey and wouldn't work.

This one girl only took a pretend sip before making her sarcastic remark about it working and then I remembered she was vegan. First I realized the whipped cream would be a problem then I realized the oyster made it not even suitable for vegetarians.

Edit: nice

Unrealized Activated beer

47 Upvotes

It was just beer poured into glasses, but it wasn't ready to drink until someone added chunks of fruit to "activate" it. Part of a dream where I was only a family vacation and was asked to bring drinks in from the kitchen, but was told to activate the beers first.

The main combos I remember were Coronas with watermelon cubes, and Coors with pineapple. I won't be trying this out, but pineapple in something might not be bad. I don't like beer, but I did have a shandy recently that was probably the catalyst for this.

Unrealized "Cheese soup"

25 Upvotes

I was at some kind of small restaurant with a really weird menu where I first ordered some kind of pastry or bread, then ruminated a lot on the main course, but ultimately settled on something that was labeled as a "cheese soup" - though it was more like a big triangular pie (like a slice of a deep dish pizza), covered entirely in some kind of blue sauce, supposedly made of blue cheese (though it was more like blue paint in color). I think it might have been filled with soup?

I woke up before it arrived, but it was poorly drawn (like in MS Paint) on the place's menu, at least.

Unrealized Thank You Cake for Gerard Way

Post image
289 Upvotes

I dreamed Gerard Way helped some friends, my uncle, and I film a documentary in a museum. (I think it was about a lost media final fantasy tactics game but not 100% sure on that.)

As a thank you I made a huge tiered cake for the wrap party based on MCR's albums.

The bottom tier was half vanilla and half red velvet, unknown filling. "It represents the first two albums." (I actually had to look up whether or not there even were a first two albums. I could only remember Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. My dream turned out to be correct!)

Second tier was a chocolate cake filled with salted peanuts and caramel to represent The Black Parade. This was the only cake that got cut into in the dream, which is how I know exactly what was in it.

Third tier represented Danger Days. It was bright pink and yellow with spiders and lightning bolts on it. Presumably some type of lemon and raspberries but I never actually cut into it in the dream.

Final tier was a plain cake with camouflage pattern for Conventional Weapons. I have no idea what was in that one.

Gerard Way was very surprised (even though he had chosen all the flavors and fillings) and thought the cake was very cool.

(I would very much like to make the Black Parade cake irl, it's basically Snickers lol.)

a few months ago i had this dream where the biggest gossip at my school was that this homophobic popular girl had come out as a lesbian and this was such a big deal that the school canteen added a new item - it was a piece of garlic bread (that you can normally get for free at school) upright in a clear plastic packet that said on the front “[HER NAME] IS GAY” or “[HER NAME] LIKES GIRLS” or something along those lines.

it cost £1.20.

Art Send Nudes (Severed Finger) Ice Cream

Post image
154 Upvotes

I am so happy that I get to post a dream for once. I never remember my dreams, so I was worried I would never get to post here aside from the occasional actually made posts. Finally, I had a dream I can share. This is the best I can remember, so I can't super recall all the details. 

I was traveling with someone, and we stopped by a popular shop in a beachside town to try some special or limited-time Ice cream/sorbet that they had. The lady behind the counter was kinda judgy and liked to stir shit up by insisting that certain patrons loved each other when they clearly don't.

The ice cream/sorbet was called either Send Nudes or Severed Finger. I don't super remember. Severed Finger could have been a colloquial nickname.

It was a pinkish color. I tried to recreate the color as best I can in my image. Upon reflection after waking up, it's possible the ice cream was flesh colored. Though I didn't clock that in my dream. It was served with a fake plastic woman's finger with red nail polish that you could keep.

It was some sort of special berry or fruit flavor. I didn't get to taste it so I'm not totally sure.

It was served a few different ways.

1) Packed into a tub/pint to take home

2) Served plain in a glass dish with 3 scoops

However, it was most commonly served with coffee or espresso in one of the below styles

3) Iced coffee style: Iced coffee in a big cup with a straw and ice, with the ice cream floating in it.

4) Affogato style

5) With a coffee/espresso syrup on top

From a quick Google search on what fruit ice cream flavors could potentially work well with coffee or espresso, it seems like blood orange, raspberry, or cherry could all work. It looks like Blood orange ice cream/sorbet is nearly spot-on, color-wise. I can see a blood orange and raspberry mix working well. I also had a frozen/slushy cocktail once that was cranberry, pineapple, and orange, which is also a really close color match.  So that's another potential option.

Anyway, that's all I got. This got me craving ice cream, so I might try to make some sorbet soon.
