The flavor won against three other finalist flavors that included New York Reuben, West Coast Truffle Fries, Greektown Gyro.
Green will now have the choice to take home $1 million for her idea or profit from 1 percent of of the flavor’s net sales for one year.
For months, Green promoted Southern Biscuits and Gravy at local events and online via her social media accounts.
Voting for the contest lasted through Oct.18, and Green was announced champion on the evening of Oct. 20.
