However, for those who don't like it, they will really hate it because they consider the taste of mint chocolate to be so strange, similar to toothpaste. More insane than just ice cream, Korean culinary businesses are now competing to create even more ridiculous mint chocolate-based food creations.

These three food creations are currently popular in Korea. Even some K-Pop idols are curious to try them.

Usually, delicious fried chicken is enjoyed with original savory flavor, or if you want a more challenging variation, it is usually seasoned with chili or spicy taste. 

However, a famous Korean fried chicken shop called Baedal Minjok, known for its excellent delivery service, recently released a new variation of fried chicken with a mint chocolate flavor.

Indeed, its appearance is quite unusual. The fried chicken looks smeared with thick green-colored seasoning. Some find it strange to look at, while others are interested in trying it. What about you?

2. Mint Chocolate Noodle

Not only limited to fried chicken dishes. In Korea, there is also a craze for noodles with a mint chocolate flavor. Noodles, which are usually served with savory or spicy broth, become more creamy and tend to be sweet.

Indeed, this mint chocolate noodle is served with a mixture of cream, nuts, melted butter, and mint syrup. To bring out the taste of mint chocolate, the dish is added with some chocolate chips or Oreo biscuit crumbs. Hmm, interested in trying it?

3. Mint Chocolate Katsu

Last but not least, a famous restaurant, Saboten, also doesn't want to miss out on innovation by creating a dish made of chocolate mint. Its name is 'Mint Chocokatsu', which is a combination of katsu chicken with a filling of mixed cheese and mint chocolate.

Once again, this creation has not escaped the attention of Korean netizens. Some spontaneously said it was disgusting, but there were also many who loved it. Because of its unique shape and possibly its taste, these three foods are often used as a challenge by several celebrities and Korean stars in various shows, such as variety shows.

One of them is Chung Ha, who participated in the mint chocolate eating challenge, including chicken with mint chocolate flavor, which was featured on the YouTube account Wassup Man. As a result of this challenge, Chung Ha remarked, "I won't eat mint chocolate anymore. I don't want to eat green-colored food anymore!"

If these three foods were available in Indonesia, would you also be interested in trying them, KLovers?
