Hold me closer, tiny ice cream.
My heart skipped a beat today when I saw that there’d be a brand new flavor rolling out of the Ben & Jerry’s factory this month. Surely I would have to sample this latest batch of frozen paradise. But then I learned a horrid, horrid truth. The new flavor would only be available for one week… and only in VERMONT.
Why, Ben & Jerry’s? WHY? Adding insult to injury, the new flavor looks oh-so-good. Titled “Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road” as an ode to Elton John (who’ll be playing his first Vermont concert this month), the ice cream features “an outrageous symphony of decadent chocolate ice cream, peanut butter cookie dough, butter brickle and white chocolate chunks.”
Me == salivating at the mouth.
I can’t believe such an affable organization as Ben & Jerry’s would deign to tease us with this flavor, knowing that only a small population of the country will have access to it — and only for a limited time at that! It’s not right, I tell you. It’s not right! Ice cream flavors should last longer than a candle in the wind, if you will. Don’t let the sun go down on me, Ben & Jerry’s! The circle of life for this ice cream should be longer, more expansive! I want to eat it at the club at the end of the street!!!
Okay, I’ll stop.

Ben & Jerry please Don’t Go Breaking My Heart or I may have to get My Father’s Gun and come find you.
No ice cream outside of Vermont? I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues.
I had better stop this could get out of hand.
Can You Feel The Love Tonight B?
My new fave Ben and Jerry’s flavor is Cinnamon Buns. Check it out! Maybe it will ease some of your pain with it’s cinnamony, bunny goodness!
Someone save my life tonight and send me a pint of the Yellow Brickle Road (and by “someone,” I mean Ben & Jerry’s. I’ll blog about it. Free publicity!!)
I’ve never known anyone as obsessed with food as you are…
Too bad. If we go by the ol’ “You are what you eat” expression, I should probably have some of this gay ice cream.
I don’t even like ice cream or cinnamon buns, but I can’t stop thinking about the ice cream zoobabe mentioned. Thanks a lot!

If we go by that logic I should be eating ‘BB loving Blonde Bitch’ ice cream.

I’m now hating both Ben and Jerry.
Since my hubby’s name is Daniel, maybe he’ll be traveling tonight in a plane – to Vermont.
oh dont lie. if we were still at dartmouth, the blog post would go more like: this wonderful concoction is only available in vermont. SCORE US–SUCK IT LOWER 48!!

Woohoo, the bitch is back!
(I can’t believe no one used that song yet.)
@ hb
I can just imagine trying to eat some BB ice cream and accidentally choking on one of Renny’s head scarves. Or maybe Jesse’s crotch compensation sock.
B-B-B-Ben & Jerry’s sucks.
