True ice cream connoisseurs know that not every trendy flavor of the week can become a classic, making Ben & Jerry’s real-life Flavor Graveyard in Vermont all the more of a must-see destination.
On Oct. 9, the iconic ice cream brand announced that special Halloween tours of the Flavor Graveyard honoring their “dearly de-pinted” varieties will be held later this month.
