Fun and Games A Scoop of Iraqi Road and Another of Abu Grape
Posted by Nicki Wood on Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 12:40 PM
A friend sent me this email about a Ben & Jerry's flavor for Obama, and another for the most recent ex-president. (The smell of sulfur lingers. *protective genuflection*)
I searched the Ben & Jerry's website, Snopes.com and a bunch of other places to confirm or deny it and couldn't. It's on a lot of blogs, but the original is as shadowy as a weapon of mass destruction.
It's true that Yes Pecan! ice cream was created in the spirit of Obama, but its purpose was also to raise money for Common Cause. That's about as far as I could get in verifying the contents of the email below.
If this were a news story, I'd call the spokesman. But it's not news, it's just fun. Or anyway, I enjoyed it immensely, because I'm a divider.
Ben & Jerry created "Yes Pecan!" ice cream flavor for Obama.
They then asked people to fill in the blank for the following:
For George W. they created "_________".
