I’ve always loved their ice cream, but I’ve also loved that the founders (and this CEO, apparently) are progressive, like I am. That matters to me, and I wouldn’t knowingly support a Trump-backed company (I stopped buying Goya products, for example). Apparently it was Unilever that was responsible for the firing.

@bijouxbroussard yes, and it has nothing to do with Trump either. It was over Israel and Palestine

@bijouxbroussard I know for a fact that either one or both of their founders literally has no sense of taste, which is why they add stuff like chunks of chocolate to their ice cream to offer more "mouth feel."

There many types of capitalist in the democratic party. Even Harris claimed to be a capitalist.
Being a CEO of ANY corporation you're a capitalist no matter how liberal you are!
A true liberal however doesn't believe in corporations.
That portion of the 14th amendment should never have existed! The part that gave a CONCEPT of corporations rights.
A non-corporate business doesn't have 14 amendment rights.
Only corporations have 14th amendment rights.
You could be a conservative business owner and still not believe in corporations!

As an self-proclaimed ice cream connoisseur, I've always liked their ice cream.
Some of my favorites being Half Baked, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Cherry Garcia.

They should shut their trap on political issues and sell ice cream.
If they were really serious about what they claimed on July 4th theyd have handed their land to the Coosuk Abenaki Nation or at least given them a huge share of the company's profits.
But alas just a bunch of snowflake virtue signalling. I will not shed a tear over the CEO being fired 🤭

its always the best economic decision to alienate at least 50% of your potential customer base... 🍿
btw.. 50% was being very generous if you peep at the lefts approval polls of late...

@DjBubu6011 agreed the commercials were very woke like thats gonna make people buy ice cream
bijouxbroussard · F
@JohnOlinger81 Do you know what "woke" actually meant ? The original term, not what white bigots use it for now. Because it has absolutely nothing to do with ice cream.

That's like corporations asking for their political donations back
JohnOlinger81 · 41-45, M

This whole thing is a classic example of why selling out is bad if you want to your brand to hold it's values and integrity.
Unilever has them by the nuts now and as a corporate conglomeration, doesn't care about the brands ethics. They sold to them, and now it's ruining their brand
