We have just had one of these in New Zealand (Christchurch) where
celebrity chefs were invited to show off their achievements. I live
a long way from the venue, but the reports show that one top US
celebrity chef produced ice cream flavoured with olives and balsamic
vinegar.

Do people in the US eat this sort of thing do you know? I have never
heard of it.

Some of these rather exotic exhibitions where chefs strut their stuff
seem to feature dishes of the type I would never think of producing in
a thousand years. Why mix up flavours simply to experiment? Savoury
ingredients do not belong in sweet ice cream - or at least they don't
where I live.

Perhaps someone can throw some light on this new type of
exhibitionism.
