From The Guardian (UK):
"Ben & Jerry's, the socially aware ice-cream maker, has apologised to Irish consumers for launching a new flavour evoking the worst days of British military oppression. Tubs of Black and Tan ice cream have gone on sale this month and prompted complaints that the phrase is not just the name for mixing stout with pale ale.
Black and Tans, irate customers explained, was the term for an irregular force of British ex-servicemen recruited during the Irish war of independence and renowned for their brutality, including the 1920 massacre of 12 people at a Dublin football match. The new flavour is only available in the US at present."
Rest assured, you'll find no such tasteless frozen fare at KCIF sponsor Sheridan's Frozen Custard in Crown Center.
