UPDATE Ben & Jerry's Flavor Creation Contest

from WDIV Detroit TV 4

Do you think Ritz crackers belong in ice cream? The makers of Ben and Jerry's ice cream apparently do, because they've awarded a Jacksonville, Fla., woman the top prize in their make-a-flavor contest for her cracker idea. Tasha Callister's "Puttin' on a Ritz" features a mixture of crushed, chocolate-covered Ritz cracker sandwiches filled with caramel, then mixed in vanilla ice cream with caramel and Ritz cracker swirls.

The contest judges especially liked the flavor's playful name. Ben and Jerry's will make enough "Puttin' on a Ritz" ice cream for an ice cream party for Callister, but they have no plans to put it into production.

More than 40,000 people submitted ideas for the contest.
