Will they come out with a "Democrat Dung" flavor as a bi-partisan effort?
i want some
Yup...by the way I took the Ben and Jerry's tour years ago and was told that when they had a contest in England for a new
flavor (they were in England?) the names of flavors
submitted included MINTY PYTHON and CAMILLA PARKER BOWLS.
How about some kind of Screamin' Howie Dean flavor? Almonds,
pecans, walnuts, peanuts...like Howie, it's ALL NUTS
Yep, filled with fruits and nuts in a saccarine sweet
pink froth.
oops, VANILLA PARKER BOWLS, I now remember, was what it was
"Coulter Chocolate, Coconut and Caramel"
Except at Rasmussen where his approval is at 49%
I used to eat the ice cream from Ben and Jerry's until I learned about their left-wing politics. Every time I bypass them and choose another brand, I get a feeling of satisfaction. It's the same feeling I get when I use a ketchup other than Heinz, or drink wine not made in France. These are small things when done individually, but, on a macro level, they might actually have some impact.
Great concept and love the flavor names - I'd love to buy a quart of "gun nut".
However, I'm disappointed that there's a ton of artificial ingredients -- there's no need for all that junk! Just use cream, milk, sugar, and the mix-ins for goodness sakes. Here's the ingredients to "Gun Nut" -- YUK!!
INGREDIENTS: Ice Cream Base (Milk, Cream, Sugar, Corn Syrup, Whey, Nonfat Milk, Guar Gum, Mono and Diglycerides, Polysorbate 80, Xanthan Gum and Carrageenan); Coconut Emulsion (water, propylene glycol, sodium metabisulfite); Roasted Almonds; Chocolate Chips (sugar, coconut oil, cocoa process with alkali, cocoa, milkfat, soya lecithin (added as an emulsifier) and natural flavors).
I emailed my grocery store PUBLIX, and requested they sell Star Spangeled Ice Cream.

I just did a job in New Hampshire, and they told me BEN AND JERRY'S is no longer owned by Ben and Jerry...
someone else bought them out.
How about Arafat Apricot and Farrakhan Fudge flavors to show Conservative support diversity? :)
The thing is I've "heard" that they having nothing to do with the managing of the company anymore and that the company is just a bunch of people trying to make money, and not politically affiliated. Can anyone confirm? I'd hate to sanction Americans for being in a formerly liberal company.
Very good!
What katsup do you get? I have tried others, but honestly Heinz is the best. I never like Ben and Jerry's and as far as wine goes I drink Italian.
To broaden the diversity, how 'bout Farrakhan Fudge Pecker?
On a more serious note, there's no better than Blue Bell ice cream. It is privately held and no lib lovers there, either.
