Chubby Hubby to become Hubby Hubby

Bnj_chubby_hubby In honor of Vermont passing the gay marriage law, Ben&Jerry's is renaming its “Chubby Hubby” ice cream flavor to “Hubby Hubby.” Check it out. Which will, of course, make it a more freighted thing to be chowing down a pint of in your bathrobe in front of the TV. Marriage-for-all supporter, closet case or just a big fan of fudge-covered peanut butter-filled pretzels? You decide.

But it does get me thinking about things that are tricky to order because of their name. There's this funny post in which we are reminded of IHOP's Rooty Tooty Fresh 'N Fruity or Bubba Gump's Bubba's After the Storm Bucket of Boat Trash. Or, the ultimate "what on god's green earth were they thinking" dish: Outback Steakhouse's Chocolate Thunder From Down Under. Please, let's end this now before I start talking about my thunder from down under.
