Ben & Jerry's Gets Yummy And Gay!
In celebration of the historic development that beginning today gay and lesbian couples can marry in the state of Vermont, Ben & Jerry's has come up with a special ice cream name.
The company has renamed their yummy Chubby Hubby flavor to Hubby Hubby for the entire month of September.
The company states:
"Ben & Jerry’s has a long history of commitment to social justice, including gay rights. Its partnership with Freedom to Marry, a national leader in the movement for marriage equality, aims to raise awareness of the importance of marriage equality and to encourage other states to follow the blazing trails of Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, and Maine.
Ben & Jerry’s aims to raise awareness of the importance of marriage equality and, to show its support, will serve “Hubby Hubby” sundaes in Vermont Scoop Shops throughout the month of September."
Even Ben & Jerry's CEO, Walt Freese, is speaking out. He says, “At the core of Ben & Jerry’s values, we believe that social justice can and should be something that every human being is entitled to. From the very beginning of our 30 year history, we have supported equal rights for all people. The legalization of marriage for gay and lesbian couples in Vermont is certainly a step in the right direction and something worth celebrating with peace, love and plenty of ice cream.”
We're sure not everyone will agree, but we're definitely happy that B&J is setting such a good public example.
Showing your support for equality is always good!

"Fudge covered peanut butter pretzels" Funny
ok??????????????? :S
poke my fucking eyes out!!!!!!!!!!!
This is almost too easy.. LOL.
who knew Ben & Jerry's wanted to go out of business. Worst idea ever
Lame!
Mario here is your Chocolate Swirl !!!!!!!!!!
)
maybe straight peeps can get a flavor called hetro or something …………………………..
awesome. if I could eat icecream I'd buy it.
Re: Long Dong Connery – lol!!!
yum! lol i would eat that!
is this ice cream or dick smear?
Yummy! That actually sounds good!
Why not just call it FUDGEPACKER????
I'm a vegan and don't eat that garbage, but even I think this is a cool thing for them to do.
Mixing NUTS and FUDGE??? It's been done alreaDY, right fat ass???
….read the ingredients label very carefully folks!
Good for Ben & Jerry's and good for Vermont.
Equal rights ALWAYS tastes good.
They should have just put a big dick on the label. It would have sold more than some stupid ass ebony/ivory cartoon of 2 homos in love, with their pet cow
Will "WIFEY WIFEY" taste like tuna????
Guess I'll have to earn back the weight loss in September for encouraging this effort.
GO FUCK YOURSELF!
Just call it the BJ cone.
fudge packer!!
NO VANILLA ALLOWED
Lesbian version—-1000 LICKS
Is it ironic that the ice cream features peanut butter-packed fudge-covered pretzel logs?
COCOBALLS—the new flavor in honor of fuckhead Perez Hilton
This is AWESOME!
Good on them
Great initiative!
Just when you think you've seen it all…..anyone else find it discriminating that gays can have parades and their own ice cream without any repercussions and if the straight community were to have straight ice cream or a heterosexual parade we'd be crucified
Re: JeniiJen – yer looking hott!!!!!
ALL NATURAL !! wtf ?
THE MESSAGE = FAN-TAB-ULOUS!!
THE INGREDIENTS: HILARIOUS!!!
covered in peanut butter and packed with fudge would have been HILARIOUS
Re: Sensitivity – hey.. where'd you go with our camcorder?
Aww that's a loverly idea!
Lolz cute
Re: brainchild –
Why not cram a 10 inch dildo down your throat?
can't wait to sit down with my kids over some ice cream and explain to them how fucked up this world can be.
Yay! Im gonna stock up… LoL…
Re: scottyk –
Awww. Poor baby. Being hetero puts you at such a disadvantage in this world. If you want your own ice cream, I'm sure we make one just for you. Why don't we put a stick into a Summer's Eve and freeze it? We can call it a Douche-sicle.
AWESOME
How about a flavor in honor of Long Dong Connery called "Big Tartan Treat"?
FUDGE covered Pretzel.
ROFLMAO!
They sure are packing a lot of fudge in that little container
Re: brainchild – #44.. it would only come in full gallon sized tubs….never mind the pints… LOL
Re: Hofnar – that sounds like a nice idea…it's not about the ice cream, you can have all that stuff i just get sick of listening to the whining that goes on from the gay community. My neighbours are gay and i get along fine with them but they aren't always crying about this and that…they just go about their day to day business like the rest of us…they don't feel the need to broadcast their sexuality or the need for parades to exploit their sexuality
Re: scottyk – Meh, it's the most horrible thing to be white and straight these days. And I'm not being funny. I'm dead serious. If a white person says where's the whites only college fund, then they are racist. If a black wants some money from the fund they are "advancing themselves". If you are against gay marriage but okay with civil unions, you are a homophone. If you don't like the healthcare plan Obama's trying to push - you are racist. If you try to say you aren't, no matter what is said - it's "proof" you are even more racist. If you are against the Gay parade when it matters the least, even if you believe in the idea, you are a homophobe. Even if you are a gay rights activist, but refuse to kiss another of the same sex - you are still a homophobe.
creamy delish… made with real jiz
Whoa.. I can just hear Conan or Letterman bringing up this pun. Fudge covered pb????? Man is Ben and Jerry's for real?
Re: Poindexter-X – So obviously you're gay and in love with Perez–why don't you just take that gun and shoot yourself in the head???
How nice of Ben & Jerry to not include the LEZBO couples, seems they feel more for the male GAYS than the LEZBO'S since they named it HUBBY HUBBY !! FYI i am gay so its ok for me to talk this way, just interesting how they forgot the LEZBO'S got the right as well, i personally could careless either way, just a interesting way to forget ALL the people they are so called claiming to CELEBRATE,,,,,,,
Guess I will have to stop buying Ben and Jerrys, bummer.
Did they have to make it look like a butt hole?
Re: brainchild – LOL
Re: Canadiana* – HAHAHA–they would have to double bag it so none of the yummy sweetness would escape..
I love me some Ben & Jerry's but Chubby Hubby is disgusting! Pretzels in an ice cream=GROSS!
when you get to the bottom of the carton there is a balloon knot
Good for them! Good idea.
of all the ben and jerrys flavors, they choose the one with fudge covered pretzels stuffed with peanut butter to commemorate same sex marriages. i think it's nice that they tried because i'm all for gay rights, but seriously they couldn't think of a word play on another flavor?
Hmmm…fudge and peaNUTS? Uh huh. Interesting.
That is a little gross if you think about it.
Fudge is on the end of the pretzel
*cough *cough
i don't even WANNA know why it's FUDGE! LOL gross.
Re: Dumpster baby – Why is it a bad idea? I think it's really nice.
Re: brainchild – Thats mean.
Re: brainchild – And…we'll name the next one after people like you. Homophobe sundae!
Awesome, but it sounds disgusting.
hehehehhe…it's PACKED full of FUDGE. LMFAO!!! ahhhh I amuse myself so.
can't wait to taste it!!!
Re: scottyk – Oh please. Hets have "owned " everything for so long! It's all in fun. Get over yourself!
Re: Hofnar – LAWLZ
Fudge packed into pretzels… that is their way of calling gays fudgepackers…
Re: Mickey9661 – I'm not a homophobe–I'm a Perezaphobe.
are the grooms supposed to be Ben and Jerry? Congrats guys
Re: candycaynegirl – Yes congratulations Ben and Jerry, you are both morally bankrupt.
Re: bongo – fucking hilarious
I want Hubby Hubby down here in Wash DC - I'd buy it up.
Re: imsoregistered – I have to wonder if you would whine if you were blatantly discriminated against.
EQUALITY!!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poor bigots on this website . . . sooooooo upset. Too fucking bad.
Re: Dumpster baby – this will put them out of business how?
Letter written to Ben and Jerry's
I am so happy to hear about Hubby Hubby Ice cream. It fills my heart with Joy and that you are standing up for what you believe in. I am a Straight female who believes we all should support the right to love and make commitments to those we love no matter what others think. What else can i say but i am very proud of you. Keep up the good work and don't let those right winged complainers get you down.
i always knew Ben and Jerry were gay– straight guys could never come up with all those flavors:)
And we all wonder why the majority of Americans are a bunch of fat asses.
Yaaay.
Uhhhhh… it's about PACKING FUDGE?!?!?! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING???
Good for Ben & Jerry’s.

yummy!
Re: ERRRBOOO – ohhhh shut up judger. Pretty sure God's not a fan of that either.
Re: Mr. Happy – HAHHAHAHA I thought the same thing!
Good for Ben and Jerry's!
fudge but no nuts………. interesting
They're idiots who apparently don't even know what "social justice" means, but they make damn good ice cream. And the "fudge-covered peanut-butter-filled pretzels" - HA!
I'll bet this flavor packs a lot of fudge.
I'm all for equal rights for every American, and I would buy "Hubby Hubby."
However, I find it a little distasteful– even if B&J didn't intend it– that the gay-male titled ice cream involves chocolate logs with peanut butter coming out of them, along with fudge. Doesn't that just SEEM like a bad idea? It's also HILARIOUS.
Wow… now homos can really shove their views down everyones throat. I hope Ben and Jerrys goes out of business. Funny comments though, Fudge packers! hahaha.

If you see a butt hole you might wanna see a shrink!

PS You suck dog dicks!
Does this mean it has twice as many nuts?
wow this flavor is packed with Fudge!!!
Did anyone else notice how many times the word FUDGE is mentioned in the description? I don't want to eat that!!
Ben & Jerry a couple of fucking hippies…I knew that with Phish Food.
