Yeah, man, politics aside, anyone who says Ben & Jerry's ice cream isn't good is a full on hack.No, no it's not.

Ben & Jerry’s Hasn’t Cleaned Up Its Act, Consumer Group ClaimsThe same company that got caught with Monsanto pesticides in their ice cream?

This must be their comeback tour.
Ben & Jerry’s does good, the company promises. “Values-led sourcing” means that some ingredients are Fair Trade and all are non-GMO, the ice cream maker pledges on its website; the most important one—milk—comes from “Caring Dairy” farms, it says.
The Organic Consumers Association alleges, however, that Ben & Jerry’s isn’t keeping its word. The consumer watchdog said in a complaint filed in District of Columbia Superior Court in Washington that the company and its parent, European food giant Unilever Plc, have engaged in deceptive marketing by misleading shoppers into thinking they’re buying an environmentally friendly treat. According to the lawsuit, the final product (still) contains the pesticide glyphosate. (A “pesticide” is defined as any substance used to control certain forms of unwanted plant or animal life, such as weeds and insects.)

Name a better ice cream: Cherry Garcia, Everything But the..., Real Pisctachio, Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz... the hits keep coming.
Not a huge fan of the CORE line, though.
I find it weird for a food company to be so overtly political. Anyone have other similar examples of this?
I don't really care, just find it out of no where.
As a seasonal Vermonter, who has been to their factory a number of times, I do agree their ice cream is overrated. It is basically just regular ice cream, but with toppings mixed in, rather than on top. Still delicious, but nothing special. Publix has BOGO (buy one get one free) deals on it all the time, and sometimes I cave and get them. Problem is they have a LOT of calories per serving. Some of their flavors are 450 calories per serving.
So the CT angle here, with them now being so political is that they make people obese. This helps the big healthcare companies make money off of fat people. No doubt Bernie, from Vermont, is pushing for universal healthcare. Not to help the poor, fat people get healthcare for free, but to make non-fat people pay for the medical costs of the fat people who ate too much B&J ice cream. It is right there in the open people, don't be sheep!
LOL, at anyone that is influenced by some ice cream guys.

We have graters here. Much better. Ben and Jerry’s doesn’t have any flavors that can contend.No, no it's not.

I always knew they were hippies. I don't give a damn which politicians they support with their (my) money. They're still gonna get it.Yeah, man, politics aside, anyone who says Ben & Jerry's ice cream isn't good is a full on hack.

I boycotted Ben and Jerry’s for three years because of their stupid politics. Ice cream should not be politicized. I recently started eating b&j a few months ago, but their stupid antics are making me rethink my addiction for the target exclusive peanut butter world and gimme smore. Maybe it’s time to spend my money elsewhere. The hands up and support of the philly cop killer shit is a ridiculous stand for an ice cream maker.

I do like cherry cordial, but I don’t think there’s is anywhere near the best.While Haagan Daz has always been my go to at the supermarket, Cherry Garcia is not too shabby.
My dog and I got food poisoning from Ben and Jerry's when I was a kid.No, no it's not.

I got food poisoning from a Carl's Jr., once, but I still go there. Because science and stuff.My dog and I got food poisoning from Ben and Jerry's when I was a kid.
