Ice Cream Gets Glow-In-The-Dark Makeover From Jellyfish Protein

Posted by Keshav Jain on



Tired of the usual flavours of ice cream? How does bioluminescent jellyfish flavour sound? U.K.-based Lick Me I’m Delicious has developed the first-ever ice cream that glows in the dark using a protein that gives the jellyfish its bioluminescence.



Founder Charlie Francis explains that the act of licking warms up the protein in the ice cream, causing an increase in its  level, which produces the glow. “Is it safe to eat? Well I tried some and I don’t seem to be glowing anywhere, so we’ll go with a yes for now.”



Price of glowing treat? US$225 per scoop!
