Iconic ice cream brand Ben & Jerry's released two new vegan ice cream flavors.
These non-dairy options are vegan versions of two best-selling flavors. Vegan options now comprise over 20 percent of the popular brand's entire selection. One of the new options is the classic 'Peanut Butter Half Baked,' which includes chocolate, peanut butter, fudge brownies, and cookie dough. The other new option is the Cinnamon Buns flavor, which features a cinnamon-spiced ice cream base with pieces of cinnamon bun dough throughout. Using almond milk as the base, they are both still just as rich and sweet as the original versions. Adding these two new flavors gives the brand a total of nine products that are certified vegan.
These new vegan ice cream flavors are guaranteed to be made with absolutely no animal bi-products.
