Stephen Colbert Skeptical of Ben & Jerry's New Elton John Flavor
Stephen Colbert must have read our post on Ben & Jerry's new Elton John-honoring Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road flavor. At first we didn't recognize the "brickle" part either, but Colbert made perfect sense of the word: "some sort of English treat made from candied lamb cartilage." Colbert demands an apt warning on his own flavor, Americone Dream, now that it will be produced and sold next to Sir Elton's brickle. "May contain traces of sequins." Watch the clip after the jump.

The comment about candied lamb cartilage made me laugh so hard I almost snarfed the pre-dinner cocktail I was drinking while watching this episode on DVR.
Ah, British food, you've come so far, but we're never going to acknowledge it openly. Mocking you is just too much more fun.

Colbert, another American ass, but one at the opposite end of the spectrum from poor old Paula Deen. Phew!
