Ice Cream Challenge: Pink Floyd

They made it to the Finals last year, losing only to Nine Inch Nails, but right now, Pink Floyd’s in some Final Four jeopardy. Regardless of the eventual outcome, though, we feel obligated to at least honor the acid-rock legends with a Wednesday Ice Cream Challenge. How could a grounded high school kid resist the taste of:

Dark Chocolate On The Spoon
Cashews Were Here
Peppermint at the Gates of Fondue
The Great Fig In The Pie
Confectionery Yum!

Maybe we don’t eat ‘em much nowadays, but these ice creams always cheered us up during our most pointlessly angsty years. Pink Floyd Ben & Jerry’s flavors, people - leave them in the comments!
