- sheept 4mo agoIt replaces the YouTube embed, so they're just doing you a favor
- MoonWalk 4mo agoI agree, if they needed YouTube to show a list of defunct ice cream flavors.
- thehappypm 4mo agoSo true. This is an ice cream store dammit
- fsckboy 4mo agoyou want to try Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, sorry, you need to accept cookies!
- samtheDamned 4mo agoI think it's interesting that most of these were cancelled ages ago. The most recent cancellations seem to be in 2012.
- TurdF3rguson 4mo ago2012 isn't ages ago. It's one age ago tops.
- cheschire 4mo agoSo not Tolkien ages?
- margalabargala 4mo agoIt was decades ago! 1.4 decades.
- amccollum 4mo agoBen & Jerry's actually adds/discontinues like 5+ flavors / year. I was told that flavors don't go to the flavor graveyard unless they have an interesting story, but it seems like they just haven't been adding any for a good while now.
- nanolith 4mo agoIf the flavors are permanently dead, it would be fitting if the grave markers included recipes for those mourning the loss of this flavor and who wish to recreate it at home.
- hyperific 4mo agoMillions of years from now when sentient machine swarms from now nascent civilizations descend upon the ruins of Earth, they'll stumble on this actual physical ice cream flavor graveyard and ponder our frivolous whimsicality.
- trey138 4mo agoI don't see Mint Chocolate Chunk in this list. Does this mean I can still get it somewhere?
- TYPE_FASTER 4mo agoIt looks like that flavor is still enabled: https://www.benjerry.com/flavors/mint-chocolate-chunk-ice-cream https://www.benjerry.com/flavors/mint-chocolate-chunk-ice-cr...
- thehappypm 4mo agoI went there once and someone had left a bouquet of flowers on a flavor
- sawyers 4mo agoThey were bought out by a unilever subsidiary. Most of their ingredients were replaced with cheaper, less healthy, less flavorful additives. It's funny to say the ice cream got less healthy, but it's true.
- soulofmischief 4mo agoRe: healthy ice cream, I do enjoy Blue Bell's Natural Vanilla Bean. > Milk, cream, sugar, skim milk, contains 1% or less of: vanilla extract, guar gum, carob bean gum, ground vanilla beans. Still has a crapload of sugar and fat in it, eat in considerable moderation but at least it contains only relatively innocuous ingredients. https://www.bluebell.com/product/natural-vanilla-bean/ https://www.bluebell.com/product/natural-vanilla-bean/
- colechristensen 4mo agoI dislike the texture of various gums and food science additives in my ice cream, I'm there to eat sugar and fat. If you have to enhance those you're doing it wrong. I suspect my digestive system dislikes them as well feeding the wrong species of gut bacteria or triggering some kind of imbalance or another.
- soulofmischief 4mo agoI generally agree, buy it's a small amount compared to just about any other store bought ice cream flavor I've found, and way less ingredients than general. It tastes and feels different.
- wilg 4mo agoIs it true? I looked into your claim here and it doesn't seem substantiated at all.
- supertroop 4mo agoThey are fighting to get it back: https://time.com/7344796/ben-jerrys-ice-cream-magnum-unilever-independent-board/ https://time.com/7344796/ben-jerrys-ice-cream-magnum-unileve... Also the shareholders overrode Ben and Jerry against their objections to sell. They didn’t want to. Of course they probably shouldn’t have gone public in the first place but if they hadn’t you never would have heard of them. Unless you grew up in Vermont. Like me. It was kinda weird seeing a beloved business become huge. Like watching Phish go from a local band to something giant.
- dtagames 4mo agoI do love ice cream, but most of these flavors sound awful. I'm not surprised they're gone.
- supertroop 4mo agoRip White Russian. I loved that. Never understood how that nasty jimmy fallon flavor still exists.
- MontgomeryPy 4mo agoAgreed that was a good one. They used so much Kahlua that it caused the price of Kahlua liqueur to rise at liquor stores because they were buying so much of it. So they stopped the flavor.
- xg15 4mo agoThe website on its own would be an ok marketing stunt. But this is a real, permanent installation at one of their locations? Only in America... :)
