6 Ben & Jerry's Flavors That Need To Come Back
Ben & Jerry's is constantly innovating and releasing new varieties, which means that occasionally some need to be taken out of circulation. More than 200 flavors have been retired to far, and more are added to the pack every year. But only the truly memorable ones make it to the Flavor Graveyard, an actual graveyard where retired flavors have a final resting place, with actual gravestones.
Flavors are retired for a handful of reasons. Some were longtime favorites whose popularity declined over the years (Devil's Food Chocolate); others popped up to take advantage of a fad or trend that quickly faded (Makin' Whoopie Pie). Still others were released with high hopes but just didn't sell (Peanut Butter and Jelly). Some were made only available in scoop shops (White Russian). And while once in a blue moon a flavor is taken out of retirement, the vast majority of those flavors will never see the light of day again.
Here are six flavors that we wish Ben & Jerry's would bring back from the dead.
