naught2 0 Posted April 13, 2010 Whats the big idea behind sea salt ice cream? It seems everyone eats it yet it sounds terrible. Why do people like it? I'm talking about Roxas, Xion, Axel, Mickey, Ansem the Wise, Twilight town gang. Is there any significance behind it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoxAs Is Wise 7 Posted April 13, 2010 You mean the fact that the ice cream is salty? Maybe the big idea is just it's unique to mention. (It seems that I won't like it, though) ^wow nice info, it's based on the real world? japan really likes things weird.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CardCaptorDeadpool 386 Posted April 13, 2010 Its a MacGuffin used for the plot in KH II & 358/2 Days usually in connection to friendship and bonds between people Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
::Heart_XIII:: 2 Posted April 13, 2010 I'm with CardCaptor. It's something to signify bonds. Why sea-salt? No clue. But if Xion, Axel, and Roxas eat it on a daily basis, it must be some damn good ice cream. lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Wise Ansem 1 Posted April 13, 2010 Whats the big idea behind sea salt ice cream? It seems everyone eats it yet it sounds terrible. Why do people like it? I'm talking about Roxas, Xion, Axel, Mickey, Ansem the Wise, Twilight town gang. Is there any significance behind it? Ice Cream is a necessity. It's sweet, it's salty, who wouldn't like it? Sea Salt Ice Cream is the thing for you.(They really have Sea Salt Ice Cream in Japan?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoctorChurchie 54 Posted April 13, 2010 I actually think that it'd be worty trying atleast once. I mean some stores sea salt for foods, and I guess that all you'd have to do would be to make regular ice cream, and mix sea salt into it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cricket 1,180 Posted April 13, 2010 Yeah, it is used as a symbol of friendship and a bond. I remember seeing a scene where Roxas looks upset and just lets the ice cream melt (or a scene like that), because he does not have friends around to enjoy it with. It gave them something to do and to be more "normal" and establish a bond of friendship. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KHfan1247 0 Posted April 13, 2010 yea now when you buy the ice cream and eat it you get like special magic or something and after you buy a certain amount of ice cream you get a special keyblade....or at least that is what i have heard. if its true i think thats going a little to far with the ice cream dont you think? (but not sea salt ice ceam anyways so whatever) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CodedbyDays 12 Posted April 13, 2010 There are people who have actually said that it's good. But anyway, it symbolizes friendship and etc. I think even melting ice cream symbolizes loss of thought/motivation. And to anyone wondering, there actually is Sea Salt Ice Cream in a Disney SeaWorld-ish park in Japan. Nomura got the idea from that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Repliku 1 Posted April 13, 2010 I might go to Japan just to try it... and go sight seeing while I'm there. But yeah, the ice cream definately symbolizes friendship... and the smiles that people get from eating it represent the satisfaction of hunger... maybe I'm thinking too hard on it.

Keyblader 325 Posted April 14, 2010 yes, the idea of sweet and salty flavors combining together doesn't sound that appetizing, so, maybe you could think of the intense goodness of those flavors separate, and then you just imagine that they will still taste as good together!

Rebellexa 0 Posted April 14, 2010 I'm surprised I haven't seen it at Japan's showcase in EPCOT at WDW. Then again, I haven't been at that certain showcase in a while, so maybe they'd have it now. I wish the whole treat-centered heartstring[or lack thereof] in Days was kaki gori. I freakin' love kaki gori. Or maybe Pocky. Everyone loves Pocky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think Pink 1,967 Posted April 25, 2010 Well, they have this big thing wiht blue (why is EVERYTHING blue?!?!?!) and sea salt ice cream is blue. (and instead of having people fight over vanilla and chocolate and stuff, this just kind of settles it) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koko 3,944 Posted May 6, 2010 I made it weeks ago with some friends. It was pretty darn good. I think they make a big deal out of it because it's one of the things that brings them together. Axel, Xion, and Roxas all go to the Clock Tower to eat ice cream and be together. Its a sign of friendship and bonds that cant be broken I believe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larxene12 86 Posted May 6, 2010 wen i first read this thread I lol'd! well form what I see Sea Salt I cream is big in Japan. And so maybe they put it in as a memory or key to friendships! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
