That's right, sweets lovahs, if your craving for that cold creamy stuff comes with a side of tenacity, you might want to get in line at the nearest Ben & Jerry's scoop shop for their annual Free Cone Day.
From B&J's site: "Around the world, Scoop Shops are opening their doors from noon to 8:00 pm, to serve up a free scoop of your favorite flavor. Please check with your local Scoop Shop for more info!"
There are six Los Angeles scoop shops that are participating: Long Beach, Northridge, Burbank, Howard Hughes Center, Santa Monica and Sherman Oaks.
