As of April 20th, Ben & Jerry's fans will be able to get their hands on ice cream in a taco called the 'CHILL-ACO.'
These unique ice cream tacos consist of a crunchy waffle cone taco shell that's encased in a soft waffle cone wrap with a layer of warm caramel in between. Some of the ice cream fillings that Ben & Jerry's suggests include pairings such as Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough & Chocolate Fudge Brownie, or Sweet Cream & Cookies & Coffee, Coffee BuzzBuzzBuzz. The limited-time CHILL-ACO is only being offered this year around 4/20.
In the past, Ben & Jerry's has released a number of unique limited-time promotions for 4/20, such as last year's BRRR-ito.
