Ben & Jerry’s founder unveils new ‘Bernie’s Yearning’ ice cream flavor

Not only is Bernie Sanders winning in New Hampshire or Vermont, but now he just scored the ultimate political victory with his own flavor of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream called “Bernie’s Yearning.”

Ben & Jerry’s had been discussing making a flavor for their home state senator for quite some time, and now that Bernie is all the rage, they made the taste of Bernie a reality.

Bernie’s Yearning features a milk chocolate disk on the top with plain mint ice cream below symbolizing the top 1% and and the huge gains they’ve made over the bottom 99% since the recession. It surprisingly does not contain any Werther’s Originals.

Sanders’ campaign is currently running a contest that gives supporters free pints and will hopefully prove that the easiest way to win a presidential election is to give away free ice cream.
