As Slog tipper Gale says: “something completely silly, but it makes me happy.” From the fact-checkers at Yahoo! News:

Now leading in at least one national poll, Cain is frequently asked if he is the new political flavor of the month. Cain’s canned response is: “Haagen-Dazs black walnut tastes good all the time.”

Here’s the problem: Haagen Dazs no longer makes black walnut ice cream… When contacted by ABC News, Hazel, at the Haagen-Daz customer service line, said, “We don’t sell black walnut. The sales nationally did not meet our expectations, unfortunately. It did not behoove us to continue with the product.”

Black walnut was, almost literally, a flavor of the month. Go Cain!

  1. I think he must have seen a coupon for it in the box of the SimCity game he used for his “plan” …

    Or was that Plan 9-9-9 From Outer Space?

  2. @2 is right. Cain would eat some janky supermarket brand with lots of guar gum and milk substitutes. There’s almost nothing natural anout God(awful)father’s pizza either.

  3. True, but at least I wasn’t fool enough to call Nina Simone a “drunken, gun-toting cracker.”

    Count your lucky stars that she can’t kick your ass from beyond the grave.
