Vermonster

Yummy!

The Vermomster is a Ben & Jerry's giant 40 dollar hot fudge sundae that consists of twenty scoops of ice cream (which is roughly four and a half pounds), three cookies, four bananas, one brownie, four ladles of hot fudge, ten scoops of peanuts, three scoops of sprinkles, three scoops of M&Ms, and a whole lot of whip cream. In total, it weighs six to seven pounds.

If you want one from the Ben & Jerry's in Davis it is best to call ahead.

There is also an annual Vermonster Challenge where teams race to eat a Vermonster for charity.

When I was working in Berkeley I saw the School band forse 4 blindfolded Freshmen to eat one. They finished in 15 minutes. But I think a couple of them threw up. - RobRoy

• That's why you're supposed to eat it in a walk-in freezer. —ct

2005-01-22 13:05:11   The Jewish Student Union had a Vermonster Challenge - about 10 students eating one Vermonster. All I can say is that it was probably the most unhygenic experience I've ever had. —LizaInfeld

2006-03-26 00:15:34   Just remember, Ben Cohen (of Ben & Jerry's) had a quintuple bypass, and Bert Baskin (Baskin-Robbins) died of a heart attack in 1969. —SteveDavison

2006-03-26 00:36:17   You're right Steve. The funny thing is when I was hanging out with ben and Jerry thi spast January Ben is now the thin one and Jerry is the heavier one. Also, Ben - who has a beard in all the cartoons of the pair - now is clean shaven and Jerry has the beard. I guess Ben got a little to close to death and now he wised up. But when you are the official ice cream taster for Ben & Jerry's for 20 years it is bound to catch up with you. —RobRoy

2007-11-05 08:33:02   if you've never participated in the conquering of a vermonster you are missing something. —WillJobe
