Benjamin is nobody's friend. If Benjamin were an ice cream flavor, he'd be pralines and dick.

Our reading

An editorial interpretation.

A deliberately crude put-down. The speaker declares a third person friendless, then sharpens the insult by imagining him as an ice cream flavor, pairing a sweet-sounding name with something unpleasant. The comedy comes from the mock-menu format, where a personality gets summed up as a disgusting dessert.
