CNN anchor disgusted by Ben & Jerry's "Schweddy Balls" ice cream
TJ Holmes went on about how mothers are disgusted, "first 'Hubby Hubby' to support gay marriage, now this, in fact get it (the name of the flavor on the bottom graphics) off the screen!"

Whatever, sheesh!

8. I'd love to see B&J get Alec Balwin to promote it...
:evilgrin:

Talk about a losing battle... This is the kind of thing that has just enough provocation to have our youth embracing it with great glee. ;)

10. Since the vulgarity IS the humor, I hope no-one protests that the term is not off-color!
