Ice-cream lovers: are you a Chubby Hubby or living the Americone Dream? Then chances are you’re also a fan of Ben & Jerry’s, the brand that started as a small homemade shop in 1978 Burlington, Vermont, and which has since become synonymous with premium quality and indulgent flavors around the globe. In its 40-plus years, Ben & Jerry’s has produced dozens of flavors that have graced grocery store freezers and the company’s standalone scoop shops. Some have become modern classics, while others ended up in the literal flavor graveyard. Now the Great Pop Culture Debate wants to decide: what is the Best Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Flavor? Options discussed include Half-Baked, Cherry Garcia, Chubby Hubby, The Tonight Dough, Peanut Butter Cup, Americone Dream, Phish Food, Oat of This Swirled, Chocolate Therapy, Gimme S’more, and more.

Host Eric Rezsnyak and panelists Curtis Creekmore, Jake Pitochelli, and Joelle Boedecker unpack the pints to name the best Ben & Jerry’s flavor of all time.
