Ben and Jerry’s Sues Porno Company For Spoofing Their Flavors
I guess because they think it lowers the grandeur and class of a company who put out an ice cream called Schweddy Balls.
Ice cream maker Ben & Jerry’s filed a lawsuit in New York against a hardcore pornography company that spoofed the line’s flavors with its movie titles.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court, accuses Caballero Video of using “titles and themes that are based on and deliberately trade upon” Ben & Jerry’s trademarks for its “Ben & Cherry’s” line of films, the New York Post reported Thursday.
The porn titles include “Boston Cream Thigh” and “Hairy Garcia,” which the ice cream maker said are deliberate references to its “Boston Cream Pie” and “Cherry Garcia” flavors.
The New York Daily News reported the ice cream company also accuses the porn studio of ripping off its logo to make covers for the DVDs.
The suit seeks the profits from the movies as well as unspecified damages.
The Post said Caballero officials did not return calls for comment.

I was so looking forward to the Brownie Batter spoof -
Baby Batter.
Then there was Hubby’s Chubby that was scheduled for later this fall.
I was not, however, looking forward to

Wow. Ben and Jerry are even creepier than the pornographers they’re suing. I never thought I would be siding with pornographers. Go figure.

Good point on the Schweddy Balls, BFH. Once the defense points out Karamel Sutra, Ben & Jerry will be laughed out of court.
