But its mellow beat is musical melatonin to me. At first, I\u2019ll bob my head to it, but then that bobbing turns into nodding off.<\/p>\n<p>The genre is big here on this rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. I heard a lot of Bob Marley throughout high school, which might explain why I had a hard time staying awake during my teen years.<\/p>\n<p>Ben &#038; Jerry\u2019s has a flavor that honors the great sandman (to me) Bob Marley &#8212; One Love. It made its debut in the U.K. last year and it\u2019s now popping up in the U.S. for a limited time at retailers and Scoop Shops. The flavor features banana ice cream, caramel and graham cracker swirls, and fudge peace signs. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Ben-Jerrys-Limited-Batch-Bob-Marleys-One-Love-Ice-Cream-2.jpg?resize=640%2C480\" alt=\"Ben  Jerry s Limited Batch Bob Marley s One Love Ice Cream 2\" title=\"Ben &#038; Jerry's Limited Batch Bob Marley's One Love Ice Cream 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Because I like to scrape away the top layer with my spoon after first opening a pint, I got only the ice cream and swirls for my first few spoonfuls. Just those three ingredients created a combination that made me sing, \u201cWe&#8217;re jammin&#8217;, we&#8217;re jammin\u2019, And I hope you like jammin&#8217; too.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Being a fan of banana-flavored anything, I love the ice cream base. Its flavor is mild and it works well with the buttery caramel and graham cracker swirls. Actually, the gooey caramel, gritty graham cracker swirl, and creamy banana ice cream brought back memories of Magnolia Bakery\u2019s Banana Pudding. Although One Love is less natural tasting than the popular dessert. <\/p>\n<p>As I mowed through the top layer, I kept thinking this could be the best Ben &#038; Jerry\u2019s flavor I\u2019ve had and could replace Americone Dream as my new favorite flavor.<\/p>\n<p>But then I hit a very small speed bump. <\/p>\n<p>Or \u201cpeace bump\u201d might be more appropriate.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Ben-Jerrys-Limited-Batch-Bob-Marleys-One-Love-Ice-Cream-3.jpg?resize=640%2C458\" alt=\"Ben  Jerry s Limited Batch Bob Marley s One Love Ice Cream 3\" title=\"Ben &#038; Jerry's Limited Batch Bob Marley's One Love Ice Cream 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"458\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I finally dug out a fudge peace sign and thought if just the ice cream and swirls are that awesome, then the addition of fudge pieces would take it to the next level. Except I didn\u2019t expect that next level to be one down. <\/p>\n<p>Now let me say that it\u2019s really good with the fudge peace signs, but I think it tastes better without them. I just want to be alone with the ice cream and swirls and not have fudge popping up on us every so often to make sure we aren&#8217;t getting into trouble. I mean, the fudge pieces are fine. They\u2019re similar in flavor with the fudge flakes they use in seemingly EVERY SINGLE FLAVOR. But I\u2019ve been digging around them instead digging them up like I usually do. <\/p>\n<p>With that said, Ben &#038; Jerry\u2019s Limited Batch Bob Marley\u2019s One Love Ice Cream is definitely near the top of my list of favorite Ben &#038; Jerry\u2019s flavors. It\u2019s a flavor that makes me want to skank.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCLOSURE:<\/strong> I received this pint for free from Ben &#038; Jerry\u2019s. I was not asked to review it, but I do think they expect me to post a photo on Instagram. Receiving a free sample did not influence my review in any way, although it probably reads like it did.
