I have an ice dream

As part of a vast right-wing conspiracy to destroy my girlish figure, Ben & Jerry's has joined forces with Stephen Colbert to create Americone Dream.

To quote the company's own propaganda, "The flavor, Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream™ is a decadent melting pot of vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. It’s the sweet taste of liberty in your mouth."

Dammit, I don't even eat dairy (except cheese which doesn't count). OK now this also doesn't count. My dealer boyfriend is like, "This is like a choco taco," (whatever that is), and I am all, mouth open, tongue out, desperate for another hit of that sweet sweet frozen crack. After we got hooked on two pints, my neighborhood bodegas can't even keep this magical confection in stock.

Thanks a lot, Ben & Jerky's!!!

    I worked at Taco Bell as a kid, and everyone would make so many lewd comments about the Choco Taco. It got really old to me, but never to anyone else, unfortunately. Also, maybe one person would order one every month or so, and they'd be all freezer-burned and gross.

    Still, I wanted one so bad.

    That sounds like the most delicious piece of cross marketing I have ever heard of.

    If you're already walking down the wonderfully satisfying road that IS Ben & Jerry's ice cream, may I please recommend their Oatmeal Cookie Chunk flavor.

    It's cinnamon ice cream with pieces of oatmeal cookie and chocolate chunks and it is insanely good. I once had a relationship with a girl that lasted longer than it should have because we were both shared such a strong addiction for this stuff. Not even kidding.

    oh My GOD....Clinton you just made me er....very excited and I don't even know you. :)

    Cokane I'm very jealous that you're indulging yourself while I'm living on Special K and water. Sigh. Have some for me.

    Ooh, Clinton, I believe it! I'll have to try that. Wait--NO! Damn you!

    Jules, I don't know you but why would anyone live on Special K & water??

    Please, go eat NOW.

    Just don't eat a whole pint of B&J's (like I've been known to do) or you won't be feeling so good afterwards.

    Mmm. Special K. I love it.

    Did you know Ben and Jerry's makes a Festivus ice cream?

    Dang. I just remembered I was going to bring in some Rocky Road today.

    And yes, the Oatmeal Raisin ice cream is delish!

    Yeah I know julepandme, I'm a little extreme right now. The wedding is in ten days so I'm watching my girlish figure. :)
