Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen announced Monday he has created a new flavor celebrating Benrie Sanders’s White House run. Who knew the political revolution could taste so sweet? https://t.co/zMMt60MHRe h/t @YoBenCohen #BerniesYearning pic.twitter.com/2v2MSbDMU5 — WorkingFamiliesParty (@WorkingFamilies) January 25, 2016 The new flavor isn't an official Ben and Jerry's ice cream. “Jerry and I have been constituents of Bernie Sanders for the last 30 years,” Cohen said of the longtime Vermont senator. But he noted that his company with fellow co-founder Jerry Greenfield is not directly involved with the flavor. “We’ve seen him and we believe him,” he continued on a website touting the ice cream. "When we’re out speaking on his behalf people always ask if there’s a Ben and Jerry’s flavor. “There’s not,” Cohen added. "But if I were going to come up with one, this is what it would be.” Cohen’s website describes “Bernie’s Yearning” as plain mint ice cream beneath a solid layer of chocolate on top. “The chocolate disc represents the huge majority of economic gains that gone to the top 1 percent since the end of the recession,” the flavor’s packaging states. "Beneath it, the rest of us. Eating instructions include taking a spoon and whacking the chocolate disc “into lots of pieces”; mixing the chocolate pieces around; and sharing the result with “your fellow Americans." Cohen has created only 40 pints of the ice cream, and 25 were sent to Sanders's campaign. A contest is being held to determine the winners of the final 15 cartons.
