John Lennon Inspires New Ice Cream Range

Called 'New Whirled Peace'...

Share

No we’re not taking the piss, Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream have launched a new flavour inspired by John Lennon.

It has been dubbed ‘Imagine Whirled Peace’ and is a toffee and fudge based ice cream complete with peace signs throughout.

The packaging is emblazoned with John Lennon’s signature and comes complete with a warning that the Peace signs were made on a manufacturing line that also processes nuts. So beware.

The press release that comes with the range reads: "When Ben & Jerry's wanted to talk about peace, we couldn't think of a better person to exemplify the message than John Lennon. Through his art and lyrics he imagined a world without war and asked us all to 'Give Peace a Chance'.

We hope this whirly mixture of toffee cookies and fudge peace signs enlightens your bellies and souls and makes you ask what you can do to promote peace in your lives."

Whatever next? The Jimi Hendrix smoothie?
