The petition is seeking at least 5,000 supporters

There’s already a famous Tumblr in her honor, but now the Internet is seeking a new way to honor the Notorious R.B.G.—an ice cream flavor. Ruth Bader Ginger, to be precise.

A Change.org petition to Ben & Jerry’s is now calling for the ice cream company to create a specialty flavor for the Supreme Court Justice.

“I think it’s important to recognize women heroes everywhere we can,” wrote Yael Mazor-Garfinkle, the author of the petition. “So when I read that only two of Ben & Jerry’s honorary flavors over the past three decades have featured women, I started this petition asking the ice cream company to honor Justice Ginsburg with her own flavor: Ruth Bader Ginger.”

The petition had more than 3,700 supporters by Thursday evening.
