A Hershey, Pennsylvania ice cream shop owner came up with a novel way to support his favorite GOP presidential candidate: by creating a milkshake in his name.

Francis (Frank) Manuopus thought he should do more that plant a lawn sign to spread his support for Santorum, so he invented the Santorum Shake, made with double dutch chocolate (in honor of the Pennsylvania Dutch) and whipped cream because Santorum is "the cream of the crop" to Manuopus.

"If someone has never had the Santorum Shake, they absolutely MUST have a cherry on top," Manuopus added.

He has promoted it in various ways, such as selling it for 50% off if people ask for it at the far right end of the counter or who come in the back door.

and the rest...

1. So cruise on down the Hershey highway to get a Santorum shake

[yurbud]

2. it practically writes itself

[LiberalEsto]

14. It's brown and frothy!

and the cherry!

[Liberal_in_LA]

16. lol

[The Genealogist]

34. Classic!

[chrisa]

38. I just looked "Santorum" up on Urban Dictionary to understand these inside jokes.

I'm pretty sorry I did that.

[yurbud]

41. no way

[msanthrope]

44. Honey, where you been? nt

[obxhead]

3. LOL

[El Supremo]

4. Ayeeeeee! You've got to read the rest!

[11 Bravo]

9. "Nothing would make me prouder than seeing Rick wipe my Santorum off his face."

[rurallib]

5. so hard to tell truth from satire anymore

But I did figure it out after a few paragraphs.
(psst.... it is satire, right?)

[Lint Head]

6. With a frothy topping.

[yurbud]

22. If a Republican isn't frothing, he isn't full of Santorum

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

7. He'd better not hire any anti-Santorum soda jerks like the Brad Pitt waiter character in Fight Club

It'll give a whole new meaning to the term "soda jerk".

[yurbud]

8. that's close to the Latin translation of the ice cream shop owner's name

[wandy]

10. Is it republican or satire? Folks ABC news don't kid around........

While not much is known about the way Santorum dines, he does have a salad named after him at Pizza Ranch. Santorum tried a chicken and mayonnaise salad at the restaurant in Boone, Iowa, and after he said he liked it, it shortly named the salad after him.

What next?

[yurbud]

11. it's hard to stay ahead of the GOP. You really have to reach around

to get a handle on them.

[wandy]

13. Thank you. I'de rather not; reach around and get a handel on them. You see, you do see?

[yurbud]

19. it could get sticky.

[Arugula Latte]

15. Well, the GOP has a lot of balls in the air.

[yurbud]

20. dangling over tea baggers

[yurbud]

12. UPDATE: Gingrich digs into Santorum

UPDATE: Always a good sport, Newt Gingrich came in for a Santorum Shake when he was in town. He brought his own whipped cream and offered to share it with all the ladies in the shop.

"Frankly, I used to enjoy sharing this with my wife, but now it's more fun to give it to women I've just met," he explained.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

17. I don't think that's a real quote.

Because it doesn't start and end with "frankly".

[yurbud]

21. I'll edit it.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

26. OK that definitely sounds like him in all his glorious douchiness. nt

[yurbud]

32. you're welcome Mafalda.

[montanto]

18. Huurp.

[madinmaryland]

23. You sure this is not from the Onion!! This stuff is too funny!!

[yurbud]

29. it's from my onion.

[Pool Hall Ace]

24. Manuopus?

Manu? opus?

Hand? job?

[yurbud]

30. that's how you make the best Santorum shakes.

[w8liftinglady]

25. Oh, Dear God...Santorum's name will forever be etched in my mind

"who come in the back door."


"If someone has never had the Santorum Shake, they absolutely MUST have a cherry on top"



"Santorum is "the cream of the crop"

The local gay crowd has "been flooding in, saying they want to taste Santorum. "

"The priest said he has made this for boys in the rectory lots of times, but never actually tried it."



This CAN'T be for real!

[yurbud]

45. people should really be writing the FCC about the casual use of Santorum on the air

what are we supposed to tell the children?

[Matariki]

27. *ahem* I'm Pennsylvania Dutch

and I feel the opposite of "honored". gag

[yurbud]

31. then when you see Santorum, give him a Pennsylvania Dutch rub

and not the good kind, give him the noogies.

[JBoy]

28. It's a bit nutty

?w=506&h=274

[yurbud]

36. that's going too far.

[Initech]

33. Santorum Shake: A frothy mixture of lube and ice cream....

[meow2u3]

56. Excuse me, but this Santorum ice cream tastes salty

and smells like crap!

[The Genealogist]

35. mmm...sooooo frothy!

"He has promoted it in various ways, such as selling it for 50% off if people...come in the back door."

[CaliforniaPeggy]

37. I wonder....has Francis Manuopus ever googled "Santorum"?

I'm guessing not!

[JVS]

40. I'm guessing the guy knows the joke he's making.

Especially since he's giving discounts to people who come in through the back door.

[yurbud]

42. Anybody who comes through the backdoor automatically gets Santorum

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

39. Of course it would be chocolate and frothy...

[yurbud]

43. and when you realize what it is, you make the "Scream" face

[sofa king]

46. Hey! I was first to market with that!

One packet of hot chocolate mix, one tablespoon of Tang, and hot water gets you this:

[yurbud]

49. that is too realistic.

[Marrah_G]

47. omfg

[flamingdem]

48. noooooo

This has to be The Onion

[yurbud]

51. as I said before, it is exclusively the product of...

my onion.

[SalviaBlue]

50. Eew.

[Juneboarder]

52. That must taste like crap!!

[unionworks]

53. I'm all "shook up"

[LynneSin]

54. I've always liked a good frothy milkshake......

up until now

[Honeycombe8]

55. Ewwwwwwwwww! That conjures up all sorts of nasty images. nt

[louslobbs]

57. It should come with a tube of soft fudge, a prayer card, a coupon for KY Jelly and a Fleet enema,

a pocket bible, an "I'm a fudge packer" bumper sticker, and lastly, an anal cork to stop leakage while going from where the deed took place, to the bathroom to clean up. I think I'll market that......The Santorum Anal Cork, stops penetration if inserted before the "act".........and if there is penetration and the act occurs, stops leakage, oozing and the occasional exhausting of foul air......The Santorum Anal Cork gives you peace of mind after you've gotten a piece of ass.
