Ahead of the presidential election, Ben & Jerry’s endorses Kamala Harris with new ice cream flavor
While a fine name for an icecream flavour, "Kamala’s Coconut Jubilee" also sounds more than a little bit like the title of a porn parody where a bunch of really old white dudes eagerly get topped by a black milf that stares into the camera for an uncomfortably long time, while a recording of Tim Walz explains how to replace the headlights on a 2005 subaru outback and the finer points of grilling top sirloin.
I cherish you.
Keep going. I'm almost there.
How do you replace the headlights on a 05 Outback?
It's actually really obnoxious to do and I highly recommend looking up a couple vids before attempting it - getting that stupid seating ring in the right orientation is as I said, incredibly obnoxious, and my big dumb meat hands can barely fit in the space to manipulate the bulbs. Oh and you have to pull the battery out to get at the driver side running lights. Good cars but there's some really stupid design elements.
Kamala’s Coconut Jubilee features coconut ice cream with swirls of caramel and red, white and blue star-shaped sprinkles. The flavor is inspired by a viral meme, in which Harris, during a speech at the White House, uttered the now-viral quote, “You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?”
Sounds good
Seth Meyers mentioned this last week. He also said that they released a flavor for Tim Walz as well: Plain.
He’s a sassy dad, his flavor would have to be a dad joke. Something like “Balz to the Walz” with malted milk balls. Or “DIY” orange clean flavored ice cream with chocolate sauce streaks.
I don't know... Would it be possible to make hotdish flavored ice cream?
I don't want to know.
But I don’t like coconut. It’s not the flavor it’s the consistency.
It's coconut flavored ice cream so probably doesn't actually have bits of coconut in it.
There's still a PTSD-like reaction to the flavor of coconut, at least for me.
Alright Tallahassee
More for me then
So where are these sold? Are there grocery stores that stock political ice cream?
The article said a MoveOn ice cream truck traveling through key swing states.
I like coconut. Not sure about a caramel swirl. Really not sure about red, white, and blue sprinkles, as those just taste like sweet food dye.
and kamala's a foodie, I'd expect something a little more interesting, like maybe plantain chunks
A disappointment. I'm not a swing state, but was really hoping to try some coconut ice cream!
Politicos
Caramel and berries.
(Sounds a bit like Kamala Harris. If you pronounce it 'carmul'.)
Coconut flavor
Slang: Disparaging and Offensive. a person of color, especially a person of Latin American or South Asian origin or descent, who is regarded as having adopted the attitudes, values, and behavior thought to be characteristic of middle-class white society, at the expense of their ethnic heritage. Compare Oreo.
Actually, I would argue these days it usually gets referenced exclusively to describe politicians who don't represent the same values their cultural background would, usually in a downside.
Don't think Ben and Jerry's is playing some double speak here, but I thought it was interesting nonetheless.
That's the one reason I wasn't all on board with the "Coconut Pilling" when Harris took over the nomination. It's historically a slur. That said, the fact that Harris herself is using it tends to dead end that argument. There's every reason to think Ben & Jerry's is playing off of that.
The Ben & Jerry's that supports Russia?

You can say you don't support Russia or Ukraine, but if you're still operating in Russia, you support Russia. Also, you should support Ukraine anyway.
Everyone should be boycotting Ben & Jerry's.
Seems the CEO has the same all violence is bad take that some of my more left leaning friends have. Violence is a part of life and sometimes you have to inflict it to stop more from happening.
Does it taste like the blood of dead Palestinian children?
Very on brand for you
But it's true! The Vice President is responsible for all of the wars in the world. And also controls arms shipments.
Nutty palestinian children. With Nougat. And hummus.
Soon she’ll cut children with your edge.
It’s 2024. You can talk about Cheetos and urine.
Full of shit and ketchup and gasoline.
"Oops! All smegma."
I fucking love Ben & Jerry. Two real motherfuckers. I will always spend the extra couple bucks for their product.
Cheetos-dusted darrhea with rancid fast food grease swirls?
Blue Bell already made a Trump flavor. It was called Listeria.
Call it Trumps dick. All the Maga idiots will buy it out! 😁
What is the flavor "it looks like orange, but is actually just a tub of shit"
Tubgirl Orange.
it would obviosly be oranges and mcdonald hamburgers, with a ribbon of bullshit.
Would it be possible to make biased poison?
