Dragon's Breath is a popular snack food that consists of cereal or fruit coated in a shell of chocolate or candy and then filled with a liquid nitrogen vapor, creating a dramatic fog when eaten. This snack gets its name from the fog that emits from the mouth of the person consuming it, resembling a dragon exhaling smoke.
The dish gained popularity in the mid-2010s, particularly in the United States, as a street food item. It was inspired by the 'liquid nitrogen ice cream' trend and appealed to those looking for unique and Instagram-worthy food experiences.
The taste varies depending on the filling, with chocolate and sweet flavors being common. The experience is heightened by the cold temperature and the visual effects created by the vapor.
