Willie got a good push on The Colbert Report, because his flavor came out after Ben & Jerry released “Steven Colbert’s Americone Dream” early this year. [Steven, of course, claimed to be offended that B&J had released another flavor this year in competition with his.]

Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find either flavor in local stores. Living in New York City, I would have assumed that I could at least find the Colbert flavor.

I’ll have to look harder. Given my waistline, I tend to not look to hard at the frozen desert cabinet.

Ben There,

Yesterday I tried a different Ben and Jerry’s flavor called “Dave Matthew’s Band Magic Brownies” which involves vanilla icecream, brownies and a raspberry swirl. It was amazing.

I suppose that the “magic brownies” title is attempting to evoke the rock’n'roll pot brownie concept - though I agree that Willie Nelson would seem to be the appropriate sponsor.

Laura, I’ll have to look for that flavor. Don’t think I’ve tried it.

Well, I will certainly have to try it! My current favorite is Blue Bunny, Cherry Bordeaux—it is the devil. You will feel you have sinned when you are eating it. Let’s just say I have to repent more than I should!

For some reason the thought of Willie Nelson endorsing desserts does not lead me to peach ice cream. Pot brownies, now that’s a real Willie Nelson dessert.
