Ben & Jerry's is jumping into the marketing mania surrounding the upcoming The Simpsons Movie by making a special ice cream flavor just for the premiere. It's called "Duff and D'oh-Nuts" and it's a combination of the two best flavors in the world-- at least, according to Homer Simpson. The ice cream is a combination of chocolate and cream stout with chunks of glazed chocolate donuts. As I typed up that sentence, my brain said "gross" while my stomach said "yummmm".Now here's the bad news. It's only for the kind folks of Springfield, Vermont because they won the nationwide contest to host The Simpsons Movie premiere in their town next week. Ben & Jerry's is calling the new flavor "extremely limited, one-time and one-day-only flavor."

If it was a regular flavor in limited edition, I wouldn't eat it.
However, since it is "extremely limited, one-time and one-day-only flavor" then hell yeah I would try it to say I did, haha

As God is my witness, I thought up doughnut ice cream YEARS ago. If someone made it, I would sure as heck buy it.
I mean, come on!

As much as I adore The Simpsons... I'm completely and utterly burned out from the incessant, inescapable marketing of this film. Help me, Jeebus! Make it stop! It burns!
