Ben & Jerry's is giving away free ice cream cones today from noon to 8 p.m. No printout or coupon is required, you don't have to sign up for anything, and you don't have to say a magic password -- just walk in to any of their scoop shops (there are five in South Florida) and ask for a free cone.

Ben & Jerry's uses certified fair trade ingredients whenever possible and has pledged to be totally fair-trade-certified by 2013.

This is a great opportunity to try Jimmy Fallon's Late Night Snack (vanilla ice cream with caramel swirl and chocolate covered potato chips -- yes, potato chips) or Stephen Colbert's AmeriCone Dream (vanilla ice cream with a fudge swirl and waffle cone pieces).

Colbert and Fallon had a huge ice cream battle last month over their flavors. If you missed it, you can watch it here.
