Ben & Jerry’s new ice cream SLICES are the comfort food we need right now

We’re not telling you ice cream can solve all of the world’s problems, but we ARE telling you it’ll help. Clearly sensing what a dark time we currently live in and wanting to help, Ben & Jerry’s just released individually-wrapped ice cream slices. 

Yes, you read that right. Ice. Cream. Slices… SLICES.

This seems to be a riff on the pint slices some creative food bloggers made a thing over the last few years. We’re not mad about it.

The round slabs of ice cream, covered in chocolate, will be sold in four flavors: Vanilla Peanut Butter Cup, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Americone Dream, and Chocolate Fudge Brownie.

You can buy this genius creation at a store near you (in the U.S. only, for now) for $4.29 or $4.99, depending on the flavor.

We gotta admit, the similarity to the Klondike bar is striking, but you can bet those flavors will have us lining up for a slice.
