Ben & Jerry's customers nominate new flavors

[deadparrot]

MONTPELIER — Will it be ApricotAbra’ or Wackie Chan? Italian Renaissance or Mojito?

How about Puttin’ on a Ritz?

Ben & Jerry’s has winnowed down more than 40,000 suggestions for a new flavor to five finalists, and will turn their customer-creators loose next month in the “Flavor Finals,” to see which is tastiest.

The five finalists get expense-paid trips to the ice cream maker’s Waterbury plant, where they will whip up their concoctions for the company’s flavor gurus in the Oct. 4-5 finals.
