Rhett & Link Taste Test Ben & Jerry’s Flavors

Eating all 52 flavors of Ben & Jerry’s pints seems like a dream. But then the spoonfuls start coming. And coming. And they don’t stop. In celebration of their 1,700 episode of Good Mythical Morning, Rhett & Link took on the gauntlet for a Gut Check, tasting every single flavor in rapid fire succession.

They scored each one on a scale of 1 to 100, then whittled down the list to the top four and ranked those. Their palate cleanser? Giant salt licks. So, how did it turn out? Here’s the final four, followed by the full list of what they tried.

Peanut Butter Fudge Core

The peanut butter category treated the guys right. Rhett gave this mix of chocolate and peanut butter ice creams with PB cups an 84. Link gave it an 87. Comparing it to the other finalists, Link decided that “the peanut butteriness is not as pure.”

Peanut Butter Half Baked

Chocolate and peanut butter ice creams with peanut butter cookie dough and fudge brownies—it’s a PB lover’s dream come true. It got an 89 from Link and an 88 from Rhett, tying for the top scoring ice cream with Peanut Butter World. When it came down to it though, Rhett said, “It’s good but I’m missing the straight-up peanut butter.”

The Tonight Dough

Link gave an 89 to this ice cream featuring his BFF, Jimmy Fallon. “Sorry, Jimmy, it’s not that good,” Rhett said. He gave it a still respectable 76, which sent it into the final round, where it landed in the number two spot. “Two types of dough?!” Link said. Who could ask for anything more?

Peanut Butter World

“I can’t believe I’ve never had that,” said Link. he gave the milk chocolate ice cream with peanut butter and chocolate cookie swirls an 87. “That is good!” Rhett exclaimed, and gave it a 90. “The real peanut butter swirl does something for me,” Rhett said when they retasted this finalist. “It’s the best by a long shot.”

About the Author

Hi! I’m the editor-in-chief of Sporked. I will never turn down a fresh-shucked oyster but I’ll also leap at whatever new product Reese’s releases and I love a Tostitos Hint of Lime, even if there is no actual lime in the ingredients. Why you should trust me: I have been writing about food and beverages for well over a decade and am an avid at-home cook and snacker. I began my career writing about fine dining and recipes, moved into cocktails and spirits, and now I talk about groceries. If you can eat it or drink it, I’ve probably written about it. What I buy every week: Trader Joe’s dried okra. Appleton Farms prosciutto from Aldi. Some sort of Trader Joe’s cheese (I’m into the aged gouda at the moment). Frozen waffles (usually the Eggo Cinnamon Toast Minis). Spindrift water (loving the Cosmopolitan right now). Favorite ranking: Smoked salmon. Imagine me as Scrooge McDuck but instead of coins I’m diving into a vault of slippery smoked salmon slices. Pure joy. I also found some real steals in that taste test! Least favorite ranking: Canned oysters. I had such high hopes for this but it quickly became a chore. The kitchen smelled like an uncleaned aquarium.
