Ben & Jerry's is among the companies whose supply chains utilize migrant child labor, often in violation of child labor laws, despite the company's self-proclaimed progressive values and vowing to "honor and stand with" immigrants.



A New York Times expose, released earlier this week, interviewed more than 100 migrant children in more than 20 states "who described jobs that were grinding them into exhaustion, and fears that they had become trapped in circumstances they never could have imagined." The report detailed children as young as 13 working 12-hour days, often overnight shifts before going to school during the day, in order to survive.



The report said migrant children are employed in the supply chain for major companies like Walmart, Target, Whole Foods, Ford, General Motors and Ben & Jerry's, among others.

On top of this Ben and Jerry have not given the land their headquarters is on in Vermont to a local Aboriginal tribe.

I used to LOVE this ice cream but I haven't bought from that brand in years because of their retarded politics.
My happiness is all of your misery. I put good dick all in my kidneys.

Same here.  I went on keto about 15 years ago and never fully looked back.  Pure sugar disgusts me

I believe the parent company, Unilever will eventually clamp down on Ben and Jerry's influence on that particular subsidiary.

And here is why political activism is a terrible ice cream flavour.



Unilever stock lost about $2 billion in market capitalization amid calls to boycott Ben & Jerry's ice cream after the company posted a Fourth of July message saying the United States should hand Mount Rushmore over to Native Americans.



Shares of Unilever, the Anglo-Dutch multinational company, dropped about 0.5 percent on Friday, 0.8 percent on Thursday, and 0.5 the previous day. It's not clear if the drop was due to the calls to boycott Ben & Jerry's, which has been owned by Unilever since 2000.



It all started when the Vermont-based ice cream company wrote that "this 4th of July, it's high time we recognize that the US exists on stolen Indigenous land and commit to returning it," before it posted a link to a blog post asserting that the United States hand back the famed national monument with four presidents to native tribal assets.

The Meta company has reportedly spent millions of dollars for private security for Mark Zuckerberg. At the same time, the Facebook founder's foundation has allegedly funneled millions to groups dead-set on defunding the police.

Leonardo Do Caprio is reportedly in Italy — more specifically, the waters near the Italian shore – where he is vacationing on his yacht, as celebrities do.



For visits to the countryside, whether it be lunch or dinner or a nightclub, DiCaprio reportedly hops on a helicopter while aboard his luxury liner and heads to land — and back, of course.



La dolce vita at the expense of the environment? What would fellow celebrity climate activist Greta Thunberg say?



DiCaprio's shore excursions are short and anything but green, making his speeches about reducing carbon emissions all the more sanctimonious.

On the rare occasion I have ice cream I get a malt or milkshake at Handel's.  The boys have been trying to get me to take them to Classic's Malt Shop on Midway though. My wife swears by Salt & Straw.



There is a Baskin Robbins near our house but not even the youngest has wanted to go there for the last three years.  He calls it cheap ice cream that isn't as creamy as the good stuff.

No woke flavours of Ben & Jerry for you.
