It's called "Hubby Hubby" and it will be sold exclusivly in Vermont for just one month.
Ben and Jerrys, and equal oppurtunity employer, released their newest (and oh so faaaabulous) flavor as a way to celebrate Vermonts new Gay Marraige laws.
Read all about it here:

So what do you think about this product? Would you buy "Hubby Hubby" if it appeared in your grocery freezer?
Are you at least a little curious?

Sounds delicious to me. I had to look it up and see what flavour it is. According to the Ben and Jerry site, it's Fudge Covered Peanut Butter Filled Pretzels in Vanilla Malt Ice Cream Rippled with Fudge & Peanut Butter. Sounds wonderful to me!

Ben and Jerrys has said that they will not have lesbian flavored ice cream (HAH!)
I think this is an outrage. I will be writting a letter to Ben and Jerry DEMANDING they come out with a soy based alternative ice cream for our health concious lesbian allies.
They caould call it "Lickity Split"!!
Sorry... couldnt help myself there.....

It's a LONG way from Georgia to Vermont so I probably won't have a chance to buy it. However, if I do get the chance, you're dayum right I'll buy it. I support any company that works towards the acceptance of the gay lifestyle. The article I read on this stated Lesbians, sorry: No "Wifey Wifey" for you. I'm not a lesbian but I was offended by the comment. Guess even Ben & Jerry needs to broaden their horizons!!!!

Yes, I have heard that they changed the name of Chubby Hubby for this... I guess I could still go out and buy some Chubby Hubby (which is exactly what I'll be become if I eat too much ice cream!!) But I would like to have a container of "Hubby Hubby" just for historical reasons :)

OMG Tee, Conan O'Brien said that Ben & Jerry had taken Chubby Hubby & changed the name to Hubby Hubby. The only difference in the ice cream is Hubby Hubby has a few more nuts!!!

Of course I would try it because all the flavors of Ben and Jerry's are awesome in their own way. I'm glad they are taking a stand on the issue, because these people that are so against it, forget about human history.... Gay people have been around since the beginning of Christ, so they need to just get over it. Gay people are never going to go away, so better if we just accepted it. It's not like they are trying to support people marrying their dogs.... lol

Well, I'm a gay man.. been with my partner for 8 years. We sure as heck arent going to let anyone tell us we cant be together. We love each other and want to spend the rest of our lives together!
My state at this time does not allow gay marraiges, but if things go well we will most likely see it in the next few years. I hope so anyways!

Wow! That's really cool! I was upset at first because I love ice cream and I don't live in Vermont. But upon finding out that it has peanut butter in it, I wouldn't eat it anyway. I am not a big fan of peanut butter in my ice cream.

I love it! But hey in this economy that very expensive Ice cream needs to make a splash to attract customers.
