A magical new food trend has taken over menus across the country and has become nearly ubiquitous on foodies' social media feeds. That trend – unicorn or rainbow food – started last year and hasn't lost its sizzle yet. Even Starbucks – albeit for a short period of time – recently sold "unicorn Frappuccinos," which were made with mango syrup and layered with a "pleasantly sour blue drizzle."
