The flavour is said to be “an outrageous symphony of decadent chocolate ice cream, peanut butter cookie dough, butter brickle and white chocolate chunks”
Elton John has joined the likes of Phish and Jerry Garcia by having a special ice-cream created in his honour by Ben & Jerry’s. ‘Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road' has been formulated to celebrate Elton’s performance this month in Vermont, the state that Ben & Jerry’s comes from. And proceeds from the sale of the dessert will benefit the Elton John AIDS Foundation.

節選“Yellow Brick Road”，from :
In the morning Dorothy looked for water.
‘Why do you want water?’ asked the Scarecrow.
‘Toto and I are thirsty. And I need to wash.’
‘I’m sorry for you ’ said the Scarecrow.’ You need a lot of things! But you have brains and you can think and that’s wonderful.’
They found some water and Dorothy washed. Then she and Toto ate some bread. Suddenly they heard a shout from the trees near the house and they all ran out of the house to look.
They saw a man by a big tree with an axe in his hand. He was made of tin. He stood very still and shouted ‘Help!’ again and again.
‘What can I do for you?’ asked Dorothy.
‘I can’t move ’ said the Tin Man. ‘Please oil me. There’s an oil-can in my house.’
At once Dorothy ran back to the house and found the oil-can. Then she came back and with the Scarecrow’s help she carefully oiled the Tin Man. Slowly he began to move first his head and then his arms and legs.
‘Thank you ’ he said. ‘I feel better now.’ He put down his axe. ‘I went out in the rain you see and water is very bad for a tin body. I was there for a long time and nobody came to help me.’
‘We stopped at your house for the night ’ Dorothy said ‘and we heard your shout this morning.’
‘Where are you going?’ asked the Tin Man.
So Dorothy told him about the Wizard of Oz. ‘I want to go back to Kansas and the Scarecrow wants some brains ’ she said.
The Tin Man was very interested. ‘Can the Wizard give me a heart do you think? I have no heart so I can’t love or feel…I would very much like to have a heart.’
‘Come with us ’ said the Scarecrow.
‘Yes ’ said Dorothy. ‘And then you can ask the Wizard for help too.’
So they all walked along the yellow brick road. There were many tall trees next to the road and sometimes the three friends heard noises from animals behind the trees. Dorothy did not like these noises very much.
‘How far is it to the EmeraldCity?’ she asked the Tin Man. ‘Do you know?’
‘It’s a long way I think ’ said the Tin Man. ‘And we must be careful because----‘
