Today is just killing it with the good news. Following a pregnancy revelation, book announcements and updates about a binge-worthy podcast, Ben & Jerry's will start selling individually wrapped ice cream slices... covered in chocolate.
The Pint Slices—that's what they're officially called—are designed to be eaten on the go and will hit a frozen food section near you this month—along with the recently announced new bourbon ice cream flavor that the company is launching.
A very important note: The well-designed packaging allows sweets lovers to tear open each delicacy in a way that will prevent melted ice cream and chocolate to get your hands all sticky. Another point for you, Ben & Jerry's.
