Weed infused ice-cream 'makes sense' to Ben & Jerry

Founding duo says they would consider making a cannabis-infused ice cream if legal hurdles are removed

Ice-cream giant Ben & Jerry’s is known for its outrageous and quirky yet delicious flavours. During a HuffPost Live interview, founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield hinted that they would be open to a higher level of experimentation in the future.

They said that they would consider making a cannabis-infused ice cream if legal hurdles are removed.

"Makes sense to me," Cohen told HuffPost Live. "Combine your pleasures," he added.

Greenfield, on the other hand, seemed a little more hesitant, but he didn't rule it out.

"Ben and I have had previous experiences with substances, and I think legalising marijuana is a wonderful thing," he said. "It's not my decision. If it were my decision, I'd be doing it, but fortunately we have wiser heads at the company that figure those things out."
