Any ice cream that has the right wing in tears is worth my time and money.

They are also one of the only companies with a massive range of vegan ice cream flavours too.

Ben & Jerry's have some heavenly flavours imo.

Also I don't get the issue with them being against black people dying because of the colour of their skin? Shouldn't everybody be in agreement that it's wrong to murder people for those reasons?

Yes but that is logical and some people think they know better than common sense.

Some people need to be careful with what they wish for though, because if the Police in America get away with killing black people for racial reasons they could start killing people for being gay or for other reasons that I can't quite think of right now.

Basically it's a slippery slope and I personally support what Ben & Jerry's are doing to try and stop that slippery slope.

people get suckered by advertising and marketing, UK homegrown is better and you support the local economy and not BIG GLOBAL CONGLOMERATES

Also they have the WORST rating for animal testing

..it’s good that from December last year, Unilever was merged to be completely based in London /...providing and supporting British employment...with their sales in almost 200 countries ...a huge industry we need post Brexit...and that it has warned that it will sell off brands that hurt the planet or society...also that some brands, including Frank and Benny’s are certified fair trade products......

I can’t see where their UK plant is

This is all I could find, maybe I’m not looking in the right place


Ben & Jerry's has production facilities in the following locations:

Saint Albans, Vermont, United States[27]
Waterbury, Vermont, United States[27]
Henderson, Nevada, United States (until August 30, 2019)[27]
Hellendoorn, Netherlands[28]
Be'er Tuvia, Israel[29]

They just tell you it's vegan, so they can sell it to vegans. They know you'll believe anything they say. It's all about the money, money, money.
