Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Ever been eating ice cream and thought: "F*ck! My eye! I wish I'd thought to turn the light on and hadn't slept on my arm before trying to eat ice cream in the dark? Missed my mouth completely." Well then this is the food product for you!
A pop-up ice parlour in Australia called 196 below is selling a new variation on liquid nitrogen ice cream it's calling Neon Nitro that glows even in the pitch black.
Coming in three flavours – raspberry, pine-lime and mango passion fruit - it is dairy free, vegan and completely preservative-free, getting its glow from UV-reactive food colouring.
196 Below founder Steve Felice said he was inspired to make the ice cream by 90s raves, where people were always downing ice cream and slathering it over each other's chests in a drug-addled stupor, right?
"I used to be a dance party child in the 1990s and early 2000s and I used to make party clothes out of neon material," he told the Daily Mail.
