They've done it....and I'm in heaven.

BLACK & TAN
Chocolate & Cream Stout Ice Creams Topped with a Cream Stout Ice Cream Head

We've no idea how many Ben & Jerry's fans might also be beer enthusiasts, but we
suspect that once you've tasted this incredibly heady blend of real cream stout
and chocolate ice creams, you'll soon be raising more than a few pints of Black
& Tan - and more than a few brew-aha!'s, too. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS: Cream, Liquid Sugar, Skim Milk, Water, Cocoa (Processed With
Alkali), Egg Yolks, Malted Milk Powder, Natural Flavors, Guar Gum, Chocolate
Extract, Carrageenan.

I can not BELIEVE they've degraded ice cream in this manner- thank God
they've left chocolate out of the picture... that would just be too
much to bear, *SOB*

Correct JaR, but to be a little more specific, the exact definition of natural
flavorings & flavors from Title 21, Section 101, part 22 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) is as follows:
"The term natural flavor or natural flavoring means the essential oil,
oleoresin, essence or extractive, protein hydrolysate, distillate, or any
product of roasting, heating or enzymolysis, which contains the flavoring
constituents derived from a spice, fruit or fruit juice,vegetable or vegetable
juice, edible yeast, herb, bark, bud, root, leaf or similar plant material,
meat, seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, or fermentation products thereof,
whose significant function in food is flavoring rather than nutritional."

In other words, natural flavors can be pretty much anything approved for use in
food.
