The one I want isn’t there. But I am given to understand it was never sold here…just in the UK.

But my write in vote goes to:

The Full Vermonty  
(maple flavoured)

So far as I know, none of the Heath bar flavours are sold anymore in Canada. Neither is Chubby Hubby. 😛

I voted for Rainforest Crunch.

Weee! Another Rainforest Crunch fan popping by after the vote.  
It was my first Ben & Jerry’s flavor and love at first lick. First loves last forever!

I voted and put this in the comments box:

> Vanilla Chocolate Chunk should be resurrected because it is absolutely the best ice cream flavor ever in the history of ice cream. When I eat Vanilla Chocolate Chunk I feel the hand of Jesus on my shoulder, the hand of Buddha on my heart, and the hand of Jenna Jameson on my scrotum. If Vanilla Chocolate Chunk is returned to the store shelves I will buy a whole separate freezer just so I can keep it full of pints of Vanilla Chocolate Chunk as insurance against the hypothetical but inevitable day when the ambrosia known as Vanilla Chocolate Chunk is again rendered unavailable. Whether this will happen because of business reasons or the heat death of the universe is irrelevant; it will be a sad day indeed. Until then I go to the scoop shop and pay seven gorram dollars a pint to have this flavor hand-packed. That’s how much I love it. I love it so much I want to marry it, or at least have icy yet gymnastically taxing sex with it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I wholeheartedly agree. That flavor is what allowed me to survive my first two years of college. I almost cried when they stopped carrying it. Chocolate chunks with little coffee ground bits in them! Oh my gawd I want it back.

**Fresh Georgia Peach** , y’all!

I’m a Floridian by birth, but I mostly grew up in Georgia, and I’m back again after another long sojourn in my native state. And I can tell you, nothing’s better than peach ice cream on a summer night – especially after you’ve been turning that durn churn handle for the better part of an hour!

Urban Jumble! Chocolate, coconut, almonds, fudge…YUM!!!

If it doesn’t make it, I guess I’ll go Cool Brittania in round 2.

Yet another voter for

**From Russia With Buzz!** 😃

Hey, it’s chocolate, it’s coffee, it’s a pun on a James Bond movie. What more could a graduate student want in an ice cream?

(Besides, it made for **AMAZING** smoothies!)

I WANT MY ‘FROM RUSSIA WITH BUZZ BACK!’

No, I’m not obsessed, really.

Full Vermonty was sold in the US. I used to buy it when it was available.

I can’t believe they killed the sublime **Pulp Addiction** , yet the icky, sickly sweet nastiness that is \*\*Phish Food \*\* is still around. But Pulp Addiction isn’t in the top ten. Sigh. I also could go for **Cool Brittania**.

Rainforest Crunch was also my first, and I was heartbroken when they retired it. Delicious cashew-y carmel-y goodness.
