WHEEL of Fortune got a frosty reception from viewers on Wednesday with a puzzle that sounded unnecessarily “gross.”

The toss-up asked for “Garlic Ice Cream” which nauseated fans said they’d never heard of.

The Wheel of Fortune episode featured Paschal, Michelle and Rachael.

Paschal from Gary Indiana ended up winning, going to the bonus round, and spinning off with a terrific $73K.

Meanwhile, his opponent Michelle was the one who solved the particularly unappetizing toss-up.

With six letters up in the three-word phrase, she rang in but seemed unsure by her own guess.

“Garlic… ice cream?” she asked Pat, 75- and looked a bit grossed out when deemed correct.

“That’s it!” Pat said, sensing the awkwardness in the room over the never-before-heard flavor.

He sprinkled on a weird joke: “I think after vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry it’s the fourth most favorite ice cream in the country.

Not this country. But some country.”

‘REALLY?’

Fans on Twitter were left bothered by the idea of “Garlic Ice Cream” and had to take a breath – or breath mint.

“Really? Garlic ice cream?!?! I’ll pass,” one user blasted.

“Sorry, I NEVER heard of this flavor. It sounds absolutely disgusting,” wrote another.

PUZZLING!

Last month, the long-running show asked the contestants to solve a Holiday-puzzle as “Buttery chestnuts” which fans said was odd and “PG13”.

The writers also recently spun out “Gilmore Girls Gone Wild” which mashed up a wholesome series with an X-rated one, which people didn’t love.

And they also asked poor Vanna, 65, to stand by and present “Warm Wet and Wild” this season as well.

Just last week the game show aired a contestant grinding on Pat Sajak after winning big and Wheel celebrated by tweeting out the NSFW moment.

Some fans blasted they should “delete the tweet” even if it was risque but funny to air.

FINAL SPIN?

On Wednesday, Deadline reported Wheel had been renewed for another five years, through the 2027-2028 season.

That will take the beloved game show into its 45th season.

For the past 42 years, Pat has been the man behind the microphone. A year later, Vanna would join him at the board.

But their current contracts are up after next season, and he has made no secret that his end is near.

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight in September, he said: “Years go by fast. We’re getting near the end.

“In most television shows by this time, you would have said, ‘That’s probably enough,’ but this show will not die,” he told the outlet.

“It appears I may go before the show,” Pat added. ” We’re not gonna do this for another 40 years.”

In a Reddit chat room, fans predicted just who will be the next host. And many came up with the same conclusion: Pat’s own daughter, Maggie Sajak.

“I think she’s taking over for Pat,” one person declared in the chat room, as another remarked: “Nepotism at its best!”

Currently, Maggie, 27, serves as the shows “Social Correspondent,” so fans are already familiar with her.

Another asked on Twitter: “The question now is: Will Pat & Vanna last this renewal or will Sony take this opportunity to make changes?”

Pat is said to be raking in $15million a year for his hosting gig

While everyone loves Vanna, Pat’s popularity sank in September after a photo resurfaced showing him alongside a controversial political figure.
