953 nut 65,705 #1 Posted May 5 May 5, 1978, area residents line up outside a renovated gas station in Burlington, Vermont, for the grand opening of Ben & Jerry’s Homemade. Opened by childhood friends Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, the store sells soups, crêpes and pottery, but it is their homemade ice cream, made with locally sourced cream and butterfat and flavorful chunks of nuts, cookies, fruit and candy, that become the main attraction. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's pricy and it rates right down there with Vegetarian Chilli - not quite the same... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
