We all know the SNL skit- Alec Baldwin, Ana Gasteyer, and Molly Shannon all shove holiday balls in their faces while suppressing giggles over the fact that they were called "Shweddy Balls." The sketch hit on so many levels, the sedative tones of DJs on NPR, the hilarious translation from hearing and not seeing, and the fact that the punchline revolved around the word balls.

Well, the genius' behind Ben & Jerry's have decided to make Schweddy Balls a real thing coming to a store near you. It will be vanilla ice cream, with a hint of rum, loaded with fudge covered rum balls and chocolate malt balls.
Jimmy Fallon gets a flavor too!
I guess that sounds delicious, but what is even more exciting is that maybe now Ben & Jerry's will jump on the parody flavor bandwagon. There's Ron Swanson's All The Bacon & Eggs You Have, Boba Fett Carbonite Crunch, Dexter Morgan's Miami Slice, and Jim O'Heir (who plays Jerry on Parks & Rec) told me he'd want Jerry's to be Lasagna, Mac & Cheese.
Will you be buying and wrapping your mouth around some Schweddy Balls?
