Former VP Joe Biden is no stranger to a good scoop of ice cream. During his tenure in the White House, he was often snapped holding a cone or shake, most notably while wearing his aviators and making it rain. He even declared his love for the cool treat during a press conference in 2016.

Now comes word that your cool uncle Joe is getting his own ice cream flavor. In honor of his Cornell Convocation address on May 27, Cornell Dairy has created a chocolate chip flavor, Biden’s favorite. While the flavor has been determined, the name has not.
Out of 150 suggested names, only 5 contenders remain: Biden’s Chocolate Bites, Bits n’ Biden, Big Red, White & Biden,Not Your Average Joe’s Chocolate Chip, and Uncle Joe’s Chocolate Chip.
“We don’t know why [Biden] loves ice cream so much, but there’s always been social media posts about ice cream and him, so we thought this would be a unique way for Cornell to welcome him,” Convocation Committee Chair Matthew Baumel told The Cornell Daily Sun.
Biden’s camp gets to green-light the final name, which students get to vote on, and there are plans to serve the ice cream at convocation.
