Thanks to Ben & Jerry's, you can have Schweddy Balls dripping down your chin.
The company announced their newest ice cream flavor today - vanilla ice cream with a hint of rum & loaded with fudge covered rum & malt balls. The Schweddy Balls name comes from the Saturday Night Live skit featuring Alec Baldwin, Molly Shannon and Ana Gasteyer. Baldwin plays Pete Schweddy, owner of a bakery, while Shannon and Gasteyer play NPR radio hosts interviewing him for their food show. While the sketch is a 5 minute ball joke, was one of the more memorable in years and follows the company's foray into comedy-inspired flavors. Earlier this year they released Jimmy Fallon's Late Night Snack and Stephen Colbert's Americone Dream.
The flavor is being released in a limited batch, meaning it will be distributed nationwide but only for a few months. If it proves popular, another batch might be forthcoming.
