Ben & Jerry's Renames Ice Cream Flavor to Honor Gay Marriage
NBC News ^ | Friday, Jun 26, 2015

Friday marked a major milestone for same-sex marriage in the U.S. – and ice cream maker Ben & Jerry's is among those celebrating the landmark Supreme Court decision.

The beloved brand's classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream has a new name to honor marriage equality. Relabeled "I Dough, I Dough," the carton depicts interlocking wedding bands, a red heart, rainbow flag and two cows with their tails linked.

"With this ruling, the SCOTUS recognizes the bond of love and commitment between two people, and protects the fundamental rights and freedoms that come with it," Ben & Jerry's said in a press release Friday.

"I Dough, I Dough" will be available throughout the summer at participating stores nationwide and can also be purchased online, according to the company.

Honor "gay marriage"

I don't even accept the premise.

Please everyone use the word Homosexual. Stop the perpetuation of a word that implies happiness to their sinful behavior

I agree. “Gay” is a happy and dishonest euphemism.

they have a permanent spot on my personal boycott list.

i don’t believe even a single spoonful of B&J ice cream has ever passed my lips.

i prefer Breyer’s, Blue Bell, or Haagen Dazs (depending on the specific flavor). i hope Blue Bell gets back into production again soon.

Chocolate chips on vanilla ice-cream on a stick. I guess you could be very British about it and call it “Spotted Dick”.

I’m sorry. I saw a can of “Spotted Dick” in a Harris Teeter store in its foreign foods section. I almost fell on the floor trying not to laugh.

I could have done a great Yakov Smirnoff imitation (his Maxi-Pad routine about a new pad that came in a box. He said, “America, what a great place. You can even buy freedom in a box” or something like that.

But I won’t. I’ll leave that up to you guys.

By the way, have Ben and Jerry gotten married yet? Inquiring minds really don’t want to know.

Just thinking. They way the “marriage” situation in the US is going, pretty soon you will be able to marry an animal if you want.

Then Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream could advertise that their products are made from “contented cows”.

This is only going to get worse so I’ll go back to work on a book about Vietnam.

I never use the G word. I always use Fag or Queer. Both of those labels predate the G word by years.

Ben and Jerry are a couple of queers. What more should we expect?

You don’t produce ice cream and packaging overnight. They’ve been working on this for some time.
