Hubby Hubby


Starting today in Vermont, same-sex couples have the legal right to marry. Proving once again that they are awesome, Ben & Jerry released this press statement:

In partnership with Freedom to Marry we are gathered here to celebrate Vermont and all the other great states where loving couples of all kinds are free to marry legally. We have ceremoniously dubbed our iconic flavor, Chubby Hubby to Hubby Hubby in support, and to raise awareness of the importance of marriage equality. Check out our press release.

If you live in Vermont, or visiting, you’re invited to celebrate the pride-filled occasion with an all naturally fabulous union of Peanut Butter Cookie Dough ice cream, fudge and pretzels.
Enjoy our Hubby Hubby Sundae for the month of September in participating Vermont Scoop Shops!

Equality is delicious!

  1. Cute! I haven't had Chubby Hubby in a looong time. I may have to buy some this week.

  2. I don't even like that flavor, but I'm tempted to get some too, just for fun.

    FYI, I was reading that it takes a while for the new flavors to actually make it into stores (remember how long it took for Americone Dream to appear??) so it might be a few weeks before it actually shows up.

  4. There's got to be someone out there who'll say "It was a perfectly good flavor, and then *they* had to ruin it for the rest of us." :|

  5. Yeah, to be fair, they should really make some homophobic flavors too, like Prejean Praline with a picture of Carrie Prejean on it...or Asshole Swirl with a picture of Kid Rock on it (okay, maybe that last one is too unappetizing). :D

  6. How about a creationist flavor?: I Am Not a Descendant of a Chunky Monkey. Maybe a company in Utah or South Carolina should come up with right-wing ice cream to combat the delicious liberal influence of Vermont.

  7. Yeah, like when they had to come up with an alternative to Heinz ketchup.

    I like I Am Not a Descendant of a Chunky Monkey! :D :D How about Libertarian Rocky Road (Because I Don't Believe In Taxes)?
