Ubiquitous scoop shop Salt & Straw has challenged itself to provide the Portland Timbers soccer team with an "official team flavor," and beginning tomorrow (through Friday), the public is urged to come in and vote for their favorite among "Bury Me In Green and Gold" (featuring Oregon mint, chocolate, and lemon), "Rose City Riot" (rosewater with saffron chips and pistachios), and "Lumberjack Stack" (maple syrup with chunks of blueberry pancakes). A launch party on Saturday will feature a Timbers-heavy panel of guest judges and an announcement of the winner; going forward, a percentage from each Timbers scoop sold will be donated to the Portland Timbers Community Fund, benefitting local youth education.
