Last updated on: January 18, 2018 14:02 IST

The latest obsession on Instagram is goth food.

Goth food has been trending since 2017.

Food critics hoped that it wouldn't make a comeback this year, but they have been sadly proved wrong.

Made with activated charcoal, it's being touted as the 'superfood' of 2018!

Be prepared for goth pizzas, cakes, chicken tikkas and more!

Care for a black rose soft serve? Goth ice creams, which are a huge rage abroad, are well-known for their detoxifying benefits -- activated charcoal lends the black colour to the food.

'First time tasting this dish. I like it! My sis said my lips were stained black and maybe I should wear black lipstick once in awhile Goth is in!' Instagram user Silwin Aw captioned this pix.

One gram of activated charcoal is usually added to these beverages to get the right taste.
