More presidential candidate food, sort of

Photoshopped image of a fake new flavor of ice cream for Barak Obama.There's a plethora of presidential candidate products out there, from aprons to hot sauce. Some people have even created food inspired by a candidate, as Alanna Kauffman posted about last week.

This Barak Obama-inspired ice cream would be a great addition to the category, if it were real. The folks over at Slate.com asked readers to come up with a new Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavor for Obama since the ice cream makers home state delivered for the candidate.

Yes, Pecan! was the cleverest. I got the biggest kick out of it as soon as I saw this post. Though I am not endorsing any presidential nominee, I thought a number of you might also get a laugh out of this.

Also, I'd like to reiterate that this product is not real, not for sale, does not really exist. It only exists as a photoshopped image created by Slate. But do you think Ben & Jerry's might take a hint? They could do a whole line of candidate ice creams!

It's not bad and to tell you the truth it makes me forgive him for his stance on the war...it's good but it's not that good.

My initial creation for her was unfit to print, as there aren't many who would buy a product called Frigid Witch. I'll stop right there =P
