In honor of the first legal marriages of same-sex couples in Vermont, Burlington-based Ben and Jerry’s will rename its “Chubby Hubby” flavor to “Hubby Hubby” for the month, reports the AP, via the Rutland Herald.
I had a similar idea when Vermont first approved marriage equality, but clearly I wasn’t the only one.
No details yet about what form this renaming will take—if we’ll see actual package changes (get your collectible edition now!) or if they’ll just change the flavor-name signs in their shops in the Green Mountain State or around the country. Any Vermonters out there with the inside scoop?
Ben and Jerry’s has long been a supporter of LGBT rights, and it’s nice to see them marking the occasion, however they do it. I might just have to celebrate and buy myself a pint.
