FNN has learned that the chocolate flakes often inserted into an ice cream cone (to create what is known as a 99) are to be enhanced with a new ingredient: Viagra!

This is due to the fact that many ice cream sellers have reported that their flakes are suffering from erectile dysfunction and crumbling when inserted into the ice cream.

A spokesperson for the Flake Consumer Information Department (FLACID) told FNN:

We are working hard to ensure that all future supplies of flakes are Viagra-enhanced, ready for the summer. Consumers will not notice any difference from traditional flakes - except that the chocolate will be coloured blue instead of brown.
