Ben & Jerry’s new “Schweddy Balls” ice cream is receiving flak from One Million Moms.

A group called One Million Moms finds Ben & Jerry’s newest ice cream flavor offensive and is asking public for a boycott.

Stated on their website onemillionmoms.com:

“The vulgar new flavor has turned something as innocent as ice cream into something repulsive. Not exactly what you want a child asking for at the supermarket”

Here is the reason why the group dislikes the new flavor of Ben & Jerry’s:

The limited-edition ice cream flavor was inspired by a “Saturday Night Live” skit featuring Alec Baldwin as Pete Schweddy, owner of a holiday bakery called Season’s Eatings.

“There are lots of great treats this time of year,” Schweddy says. “Zucchini bread, fruitcake, but the thing I most like to bring out at this time of the year are my balls.”

On the other hand, Ben & Jerry’s spokesperson Sean Greenwood said that in the last three days, they only heard from about 600 moms – not a million – complaining about the new flavor. At the same time, the company has received hundreds more e-mails that say things like, “We love you guys.”

Greenwood reiterates that the Company didn’t name the ice cream that way for shock value but rather to appreciate a funny skit.
