Yeah, you read that correctly. In a clear homage to the one of the greatest SNL skits of all time, ice cream maker Ben & Jerry is releasing a new flavor called Schweddy Balls. The vanilla ice-cream is laced with a hint of rum and fudge covered rum & malt balls. Sounds interesting to say the least. More on the release here.
Alec Baldwin, who will be hosting this year’s season premiere on Sept. 24, had this to say via a press release from Ben & Jerry’s: “For a long time, I thought that ‘Here Lies Pete Schweddy’would end up on my tombstone. Now, thanks to Ben & Jerry’s, the goodness of the Schweddy family recipe won’t go with me to the great beyond. It is immortalized here, right now, and it’s an ice cream. Ben & Jerry’s and Schweddy. Two great names in American dessert, together at last.”
And of course, we couldn’t send you off with the famous skit right?
