Ben Cohen, one of the co-founders of Ben & Jerry‘s ice cream and a longtime Sanders supporter, has for months talked about making a special flavor for his home-state senator. Earlier this month, Cohen told MSNBC that he would call the ice cream "Bernie‘s Yearning," featuring a milk chocolate disk covering the top of plain mint ice cream. The disc is meant to represent "the huge majority of economic gains that have gone to the top 1% since the end of the recession. Beneath it, the rest of us," reads the description on the back of the pint posted on the website.

Called ‘White Privilege’: It will be an empty tub with a note: “Dear racist whitey, we gave the ice cream to a non-white and billed you for it. They other people are apparently too stupid to earn enough to buy their own ice cream.”
I went to a very liberal high school...and have several classmates as FB friends. Every single liberal classmate of mine is pro-Sanders. Not a single Hillary supporter in the group.
Hey, this new ice cream of theirs tastes like *ss.
Blech! Thus ice cream tastes like other people’s money!
If elected I hope Bernie moves them into a 95% tax bracket.
Bernie Sanders looks like he smells like urine and never brushes his teeth. The ice cream must be vomit-inducing.
“Sanders Panders” is more like it.
Wow, when I think of the damn socialists and the occupy WallStreet libtards, images of those fools crapping on police cars and the filthy, disease riden living conditions of their encampments comes to mind. Now Ben is trying to mimic the flavor of all that and put it in his ice cream? No thanks!
Ice Creamudgeon: soured cream, short on sugar and heavy on fruitcake batter.
I still love Ben- Jerry’s icecream—especially Cherry Garcia and NY Super Chunk Fudge-—but I’ve boycotted it since the 2008 due to their political views and my becoming more conservative as I have aged.
Gimme Blue Bell and less politics....
Never bought their ice cream ...never will.
They must be giving it away. Just wear some ‘poor’ clothes into the store and get a freebie.
What? No Hungover Hillary flavor?
Sour grapes and curdled milk flavor.
Has Ben & Jerry’s ever explains why they came through with their promise to change the name of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough to “I Dough, I Dough” to honor the legalization of gay marriage?
They got a good amount of press over that promise. But it never happened. I wonder why?
(decidedly a sarcastic and rhetorical question)
“”Bernieâs Yearning,” featuring a milk chocolate disk covering the top of plain mint ice cream”
that’s odd. i was almost positive it was going to be vomit flavored.
If they add chili peppers to it, they can call it “Feel The Bern”
Whoops, should read “Hillary’s Rotten Apple Ice Cream.”
