Ben & Jerrys ice cream flavor?

Post by Burgerflickle »

Anyone else wonder why Jimmy doesnt have his own B&J's ice cream flavor? I know they have one for Jerry Garcia, Phish, and Stephen Colbert. I just figured that the could easily make a tropical themed flavored ice cream..just wondering about it.

Yeah, there's plenty of good stuff to work off of.

Last Mango
Coconut Telegraph
Banana Wind

Christmas time, they could do Fruitcakes.

They could go alone the lines of Jones soda, like their Thanksgiving pops,

Those are good. :lol: The ice creams, not the soda. Don't be giving Jones any ideas after they did turkey & gravy, green bean casserole, etc.

...but I see they already had "Fruitcake" soda. :-?

I know Cherry Garcia was a flavor that customers recommended and I think Phish Food was designed by the band, not sure about Stephen Colbert. You can suggest a flavor at their website Suggestion Form If memory serves the Grateful Dead and Ben and Jerry's had to come up with a settlement over the use of the name in where proceeds are given to Dead favored charities. I am sure if a Buffett themed flavor was developed they might be able to work something out like donations to SFC. Unless of course Jimmy's next venture is Margaritaville Ice Cream :D

Thanks for posting that link, the factory is right down the street from me :D Actually the biggest one is north of here but I live by the one where they give the tours etc. It was a lot better before Lever Brothers bought it in terms of the whimsical side.

I don't see this happening. Ben & Jerry's is actually good, unlike most of the other overpriced products he's lent his name to.

Maybe Jimmy wanted to charge too much for the use of his name.
