Ben and Jerry are bringing out the following new flavour of ice cream (via Crooked Timber):
I thought this might be an April Fool, but it seems to be persisting in a convincing manner at the Ben and Jerry website. There is apparently a popular drink in the US called Black and Tan which I confess to never having heard of. However, as Crooked Timber put it, how will they marketing this in Ireland?
I can’t believe the scores of highly paid corporate advertisers missed this one. To be honest, I can’t imagine it tasting too good either, but I’m willing to give it a go.
