  Minimal Flavor Violation offers an alternative symmetry rationale to R-parity
conservation for the suppression of proton decay in supersymmetric extensions
of the Standard Model. The naturalness of such theories is generically under
less tension from LHC searches than R-parity conserving models. The flavor
symmetry can also guarantee the stability of dark matter if it carries flavor
quantum numbers. We outline general features of supersymmetric flavored dark
matter (SFDM) models within the framework of MFV SUSY. A simple model of top
flavored dark matter is presented. If the dark matter is a thermal relic, then
nearly the entire parameter space of the model is testable by upcoming direct
detection and LHC searches.
