Silly Food I ate in Nanjing

In case you needed more evidence for my love of food, especially for weird food that you can only find in China.

Chinese tacos
WTF?
You guessed right, this is corn ice cream and it was delicious!  the outside was made out of cone like material but kind of tasted like cardboard but the inside was super good. It had a hint of corn taste and after eating it, I had a corn taste in my mouth, interesting.
We found a mexican restaurant in my travel book.  I got a quesadilla for dinner (which was not picture worthy but all i can say is that I love cheese!) and we split this for dessert.  It was pretty much huge tortilla chips drizzled with sugar and topped with peach ice cream
This looks gross but was not bad at all.  The outside was made of white rice and the inside looks like caviar but my guess is that it was just a different kind of rice. One of the purple-ish variety
I knew this was going to be gross but I got it anyways
Pineapple is sooooo good! I probably ate a total of 3 whole pineapples while in Nanjing
Eggplant Parmesan, it wasn't that great but I haven't really eaten much cheese since coming to China so I'll take what I can get
HEAVEN! we found this sweet deli down the street from our hostel and it was divine.  I also had a cookie as an appetizer. For dessert, I had coffee gelato and chocolate covered almonds... so good!
