Nerdist warns us about a novel food available for sale at Ikea stores in Singapore and Japan. This hotdog is black not because it’s been sitting out too long, but because it and the bun are infused with charcoal. The sausage flops out of the bun because it’s a whopping 12-inches long.
Why charcoal? According to some people on the internet, eating activated charcoal can “cleanse” the human digestive tract.
But wait—there’s more! If you having trouble getting down the black hot dog, you can wash it down with black charcoal ice cream, which, Instagram user coconutcandyy tells us, is also for sale at Ikea.
