 Since the company is no longer controlled by the founders, it  is not an official flavor. The Hill reports: <blockquote>Cohen’s website describes “Bernie’s Yearning” as plain mint ice cream beneath a solid layer of chocolate on top.

“The chocolate disc represents the huge majority of economic gains that gone to the top 1 percent since the end of the recession,” the flavor’s packaging states. "Beneath it, the rest of us.

Eating instructions include taking a spoon and whacking the chocolate disc “into lots of pieces”; mixing the chocolate pieces around; and sharing the result with “your fellow Americans."</blockquote>

They've made a few dozen containers of it. Most have gone to the Sanders campaign. The rest are being offered as prizes.
