Can we beat the Recession? Bring together Red & Blue, Gay & Straight, Rich & Poor Americans? Can we sit on the couch & eat Ben & Jerry’s? Yes Pecan.

New George W. Bush Flavor names: 

  • Patriot Snack’d
  • History Will Be My Fudge
  • Filibustered Creme Pie
  • Cousin Saddam’s P’Nut Brittle Dictatorship
  • Nonpareil-istic Expansion
  • Kyoto Lime Pie Protocol
  • Chock Full of Toffee Anan
  • Uncle Cheney’s Second Banana? Split
  • History Will Be My Fudge
  • Weapons of Chocolate Mousse Destruction
  • Mission Accomplistachio
  • Cluster Fudge…more at bottom.

I just went looking for Yes Pecan, the newest (actually, just renamed) flavor of Ben & Jerry’s at Whole Foods. It wasn’t there—but I’m still full of hope (and, soon, Cherry Garcia, which was there). Now, it’s not just a cute name, and a new flavor—your purchase of Yes Pecan goes to support an Obama-worthy cause:

 

“YES PECAN!” An Inspirational Blend!  Amber Waves of Buttery Ice Cream With Roasted Non-Partisan Pecans. 

If you decide to indulge in some “Yes Pecan” in Scoop Shops during the month of January, Ben & Jerry’s is donating the proceeds to the Common Cause Education Fund.

Common Cause is a nonpartisan, nonprofit advocacy organization founded as a vehicle for citizens to make their voices heard in the political process.  They are committed to honest, open and accountable government, as well as encouraging citizen participation in democracy.  Their Education Fund conducts research, education, and outreach activities.  Check out http://www.commoncause.org to take action.

Find “Yes Pecan” at a Scoop Shop near you!

In addition to the flavor in Scoop Shops, for every person who joins Common Cause or donates $1 to the Common Cause Education Fund, Ben & Jerry’s will also donate $1.  Visit our Facebook page to learn more.
