Ben and Jerry’s new ice cream flavour has CRISPS in it

BEN and Jerry’s is launching a new ice cream flavour with a crisp swirl.

The “Chip Happens” flavour – a spin on crisps (or potato chips, as they’re called in the US) and the phrase “s*** happens” – features chocolate ice cream and fudge chips alongside the crisps.

It’s been created in collaboration with Netflix and baking show Nailed It!.

The show chronicles amateur bakers recreating complicated baked desserts, often with bizarre results.

The flavour has been available in the US for several months but will be coming to the UK in a few weeks.

It will launch first at Asda and will cost £4.50 per tub.

In comparison, it’s other flavours are currently on offer for £3 per tub.

The ice cream is then expected to roll out to other stores in the autumn.

The ice cream is limited edition, though so it will only be on shelves for a short while, so if you want to try the flavour make sure you get it soon so you’re not disappointed.

On its website, Ben and Jerry said of the flavour: “Sometimes ‘chip’ happens and everything’s a mess, but we Nailed It! with this chip-filled limited batch.

“When smooth chocolate ice cream meets fudge chips & salty swirls, they pack a serious one-two crunch. The best part? There won’t be anything left to clean up.”

If you’re watching over your waistline, you’ll want to know that the ice cream contains around 241 calories per 100g serving.

An adult man should eat around 2,500 calories a day while it’s 2,000 for a women, according to NHS guidelines.

While this is the first time Ben and Jerry’s has used crisps in its flavours, it never shies away from introducing new combinations.

Last year, it launched a brown sugar ice cream with cookie swirls for Valentine’s Day, called Love is…

It previously also launched Moophoria, a low calorie ice cream range.

And in January it began selling bags of its famous cookie dough chunks – from its popular cookie dough flavour – at Asda.

Ben and Jerry’s isn’t the only company to launch a new ice cream flavour in recent months.

In May, Aldi began selling tubs of rainbow ice cream to help raise money for the NHS.

Asda also launched a Lotus Biscoff ice cream with brownie pieces.

And in April, M&S launched a Percy Pig ice cream, which tastes of marshamallow.
