This just in—the meaning of Netflix and chill is changing as we know it. Instead of indicating a hookup ploy, Netflix and chill may be on the verge of becoming more widely recognized as a tasty ice cream flavor.

Starting today, you can power through the second season of YOU and season 6 of Grace and Frankie with one of the most decadent treats of them all: Ben & Jerry's new Netflix & Chilll'd. The flavor was born through a partnership with the production company and streaming service giant, and it's specifically designed to be the perfect blend of sweet and salty ingredients. The result is an unrivaled combination of flavors to help you binge-watch your favorite series on Netflix.

The brand new Ben & Jerry's flavor embodies the dream smorgasbord of snacks to be served at any stay-in movie/episode binge night. Pretzels, peanut butter, fudge brownies, and ice cream all swirled together and compacted into one pint? Just when we thought Ben & Jerry's couldn't have made a more ingenious mix of bold flavors than the Justice ReMix'd (cinnamon and chocolate ice cream with bits of cinnamon bun dough and spicy fudge brownies), they dropped this blend on us. Those who don't eat dairy can also spoon into a pint of Netflix & Chilll'd, too, thanks to this vegan version of the treat.

Made from almond milk, coconut oil, and pea protein, the non-dairy version of Netflix & Chilll'd does not fall short on creaminess. It's chock-full of all of the ingredients that lend vegan ice cream an irresistibly rich flavor.

Are you convinced? Could this be the best snack to savor while culling through the myriad shows and movies just waiting for you to plunge into this winter? There's only one way to find out.
