Some stores freezing out Ben & Jerry's new flavor
« on: October 21, 2011, 01:50:15 AM »
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Ben & Jerry's Schweddy Balls ice cream is too hot to handle for some supermarket chains. While the new limited-edition flavor has brought chuckles from fans of the "Saturday Night Live" skit on which it's based, some supermarket chains aren't laughing and have been giving it a cold shoulder.
The flavor featuring fudge-covered rum balls has been absent from some grocery freezers since it was unveiled. The title was inspired by an innuendo-laced 1998 skit featuring Alec Baldwin as baker Pete Schweddy, who promises, "No one can resist my Schweddy balls."
But apparently some grocery store chains can, and so can supporters and members of the One Million Moms group.


Okay which CVOer will be first to try it?

My wife and myself have both tried this new flavor which we found in Wal-Mart.  Yeah go figure the family store Wal-Mart is selling Schweddy Balls!  As for the flavor, well it is just plain Vanilla icecream with a few to more of the rum flavored chocolate balls and a few malted balls for extra crunch.   

Both my wife and I chuckled when we saw it in the ice cream section and busted out laughing!  As for other's, some folks just don't have a sense of humor.  Too Much Political Correctness going on these days!  I say relax and enjoy life, we are only here for a short time and we're going to have fun while we are here!

The wife and I were at the beach a while back.  We went out late for ice cream, but our chosen store had just closed for the evening.  She went into B&J, I waited outside.  Didn't even want a taste of hers.

In this country people can believe what they want. When a well known name is used to try and get people to change their views, this is not the American way.F-BEN AND JERRYS TURD TASTING ICE CREAM!!!!

Didn't know B & J 's politics. Now many of us do.

Your replies were seriously informative and fun posted as well. Seems you tried to get your point across without offending the author of the post.  :nervous:

But for replying like you did I must say "YOU GUYS KICK ASS!"

Turd flavored!   :huepfenlol2:

Thanks for the info!
