Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream is releasing a new flavor, “Sweddy Balls” to celebrate the classic Saturday Night Live sketch in which two women on a cooking show, played by Ana Gasteyar and Molly Shannon, interview Mr. Pete Schweddy about his product, Sweddy Balls.<\/p>\n

>>I’m not sure what sweaty balls taste like, but I’m sure it’s not “vanilla ice cream with a hint of rum, fudge covered rum balls and milk chocolate malt balls.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here’s the sketch in case you haven’t seen it:<\/p>\n

The legendary actor, comedian, and perennial favorite SNL host appreciates keeping the laughs going. “For a long time, I thought that ‘Here Lies Pete Schweddy’ would end up on my tombstone,” said Baldwin. “Now, thanks to Ben & Jerry’s, the goodness of the Schweddy family recipe won’t go with me to the great beyond.” The flavor, available nationwide, features Fair Trade vanilla ice cream with a hint of rum and is loaded with fudge covered rum balls and milk chocolate malt balls. The combination is a melding whose time has come, deadpanned Baldwin, “It is immortalized here, right now, and it’s an ice cream. Ben & Jerry’s and Schweddy. Two great names in American dessert, together at last.”<\/p>\n

Fan favorite SNL cast member Ana Gasteyer shared a cup of cheer at the announcement of Ben & Jerry’s latest flavor as well: “The Schweddy Balls sketch was a personal favorite from my SNL run, so I am pleased as holiday punch that Ben and Jerry’s has taken it upon themselves to share the Schweddy Family recipe with the world. As a person and a performer, I am a sucker for holiday balls. And I have no doubt this ice cream will cause many to scream ‘Good Times,'” said Gasteyer.<\/p>\n
