Do you like ice cream? Check. Do you like doughnuts? Check. The ultimate perhaps in desserts is just around the corner and alas, probably unobtainable for the majority of us. For one day only, Ben & Jerry's is unveiling its Homer Simpson-inspired ice cream, "Duff & D'oh-Nuts," a concoction of chocolate and cream stout ice creams along with glazed chocolate doughnuts. The treat will be available on Saturday, July 21st, for just that single day. Stock up if you can find it (I've read conflicting accounts of the ice cream's availability, including that it'll only be at the Springfield, Vermont, movie premiere), and good luck. No word as to if the flavor would at least be available at the Ben & Jerry's scoop shops. Indeedly-do!!

New product alert and must have: True Orange, the newest entry in Grand Brands' line of powdered flavors. I'm a big fan of the True Lemon already but have yet to try True Lime. These are a bit difficult to locate although I've had success at many Gristede's supermarkets in the City. Also on the lookout for True Orange Plus and True Lemon Plus which are more in the "on the go" category. According to the company's site, the Pluses are available at Target. Hmm, maybe my buddy Kristin can help me out with this.

On the lookout for PUR Flavor Options. If there's one thing I can't stand its when a company puts out a release about a new product and then you cannot find it anywhere. This product sounds very intriguing: a PUR water pitcher with the capability of dispensing either raspberry, peach or strawberry, depending on which cartridge one uses. More to come when I find the darn thing.
