Jerry Greenfield, one half of the duo that created Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, hopes to personally scoop ice cream for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), when Sanders officially launches his presidential campaign next week.
“I personally am a huge supporter of Bernie, and if I have the opportunity, I would like to scoop Ben & Jerry’s ice cream at Bernie’s kickoff event,” he said.
Greenfield, a longtime Vermont resident, told Gannett reporter Nicole Gaudiano on Wednesday that Sanders can count on his support.
“I love Bernie’s take on the issues about inequality in this country, about the incredible discrepancy between wealth and poor, and that we’re just not taking care of people,” Greenfield said.
Sanders will officially launch his presidential campaign next Tuesday in Burlington, Vermont. The event will feature free scoops of Ben & Jerry’s. Burlington is both the birthplace of Ben & Jerry’s and the city where Sanders began his political career; he served as mayor from 1981 to 1989, before going on to represent Vermont in the U.S. House and Senate.
No word on whether or not the company might consider crafting a custom flavor in honor of Sanders. Ben & Jerry’s has been known to create original flavors inspired by celebrities, including Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream and Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Dough. Ben & Jerry's did not immediately return a request for comment.

It reads, in part:
Will you join me in fueling MoveOn's work to stamp Big Money out of politics? And if you give 10 bucks or more, I'll send you your very own stamp so you can spread the message on your own.
Click here to get your stamp—and help stamp Big Money out of politics—with a donation of $10 or more.
I founded the Stamp Stampede because I've realized that getting money out of politics is the single most important fight of our generation. Whether you want to break up the big banks, reduce the Pentagon's budget, or fight climate change, you have to start by reclaiming our democracy.
The Stamp Stampede has grown into a movement of tens of thousands of Americans, stamping dollar bills and circulating important ideas throughout the American economy. The more we can spread the word, the more we can build the movement. Each stamped bill will be seen an average of 875 times; it's like a petition on steroids!7
So, I'm ready to send you a stamp—and I'm ready to add my own stamp of approval to MoveOn's work. Let's not let billionaires have all the fun. This is our country. Let's stamp out Big Money and take our democracy back.
Click here to let me send you a stamp—just pitch in $10 or more to MoveOn's ongoing, long-haul work to reclaim our political system.
With you in the fight,
–Ben Cohen, Stamper-in-Chief
P.S. Here's an example of what a stamped bill looks like:
They could never get someone to fund it so they could just give them away, lol.
Maybe they need to eat some Bitter Berry to feel better.
