Posted on: July 15th, 2008 Elton John Gets Licked
Ice Cream hippies Ben & Jerry have created an ice cream flavor to celebrate the first time Elton John has ever played the state of Vermont. The flavor is called “Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road,” and all proceeds will benefit the Elton John AIDS Foundation. Ben & Jerry described it as “an outrageous symphony of decadent chocolate ice cream, peanut butter cookie dough, butter brickle and white chocolate chunks.” We assumed “brickle” was just a made-up word to make a punny tie between the ice cream and John’s hit “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” but butter brickle is actually the stuff that Heath Bars are made of. The flavor is a limited edition, only available at Ben & Jerry’s Vermont Scoop Shops from July 18-25. Well thanks Ben and Jerry for giving the rest of the world a taste and I’m sure you’ll raise a lot of money making it available where cows out populate the people and for a whopping 8 days.
