The co-founders
of Ben & Jerry's ice cream
Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield
along with approximately 300 other people
have been arrested
after participating
in the "Democracy Awakening" protests
on the Capitol steps
in Washington, D.C..
The coincidentally Vermont-based
Bernie Sanders'-supporting owners
are no strangers
to creating politically topical names
for their flavors
though "The Average Price
of Acquiring This Arrestingly Good Pint
and Coincidentally Our Only Hope
for Reviving a Democratic Govern-mint
is $27"
may be a little unwieldy.
