Yesterday someone posted this image of "Dude Food," a Ben & Jerry's creation honoring cult fave The Big Lebowski, and containing White Russian ice cream with chocolate bowling balls. And well, if Schweddy Balls can happen, why can't this be? Unfortunately, you won't be sprawled out on your Persian rug devouring it anytime soon.
The designer has already admitted to creating it (bummer, man)—but we contacted the ice cream purveyor for an official comment and will update when they tell us a pint is on the way to the office.
