We believe it is inconsistent with our values for Ben & Jerry’s ice cream to be sold in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT). We also hear and recognize the concerns shared with us by our fans and trusted partners.
We have a longstanding partnership with our licensee, who manufactures Ben & Jerry’s ice cream in Israel and distributes it in the region. We have been working to change this, and so we have informed our licensee that we will not renew the license agreement when it expires at the end of next year.

“No more Suicide Cherry Bomb or Schoolchildren Massacre Marble ice creams? Not even Jerry’s Jihad Jellyroll?”
Perfect!
They’re still in business?
Back in the 80s, I had a coupon for a free pint. Use the coupon but never purchased any since.
What’s a “Palestine” ?
I used to. I thought it was good. Then they decided to support BLM. So I wouldn’t even take it for my pie at my Dad’s house on Christmas.
I’ll have to look for that at my store.
Send the Fakestinian Arabs home to Arabia, etc and their evil Occupation of Israeli lend will finally be ended.
Do they realize there’s still “Palestinians” in the “occupied Palestinian Territories?”
So to assuage their white guilt they’ll deny it to everybody and call themselves woke?
Morons. Racist, bigoted morons.
Good. The only place this will be noticeable is Ben+Jerry’s bottom line.
Israel has so many yummy ice cream treats of their own that this will not make any difference. Heck - even the so-called “Palestinian” areas had better ice cream treats...
Ben and Jerry’s is owned by Unilever.
Unilever is in bed with the mullahs.
To be fair, that's literally every American company though, and many foreign ones too. You find me one that didn't at least put out a boilerplate statement about "black lives mattering" back in May-June 2020. The lefty activist pressure that "silence is violence" was enormous, and tepid minimum effort press releases shut them up and got them focusing on their next target to demand "speak up," so it was probably seen as worth doing for a lot of businesses that were probably apathetic about U.S. politics in general.
But Ben & Jerry's is 100% anti-white and terrible regardless of that.
And nobody missed their overpriced ice cream.....
The new plan.. Attach pints of ice cream to missiles that get shot out of an ice cream factory in Gaza??
“How do they define OPT?”
By the U.N. definition.
Pretty much.
Who the heck cares about some overpriced ice cream, run by a bunch of far left morons?
Especially since you can get far better ice creams at much lower prices?
when I lose the license if I was the mfg I would update all packaging to: The Ice Cream formerly known as Ben and Jerrys and keep on making a product.

Ben and Jerry sold out to Unilever in 2000. Those two are only allowed to say or do what they want without financial consequence.
Unilever is the biggest ice cream maker in yhe world.
They own over 400 product lines, most of them not ice cream.
They own.Popsicle, Klondike, Breyers, pure leaf...
They are headquartered in London...
This move is plain ole virtue signaling. They will probably start selling and opening up more of their products in islamoworld. Bucks are bucks y’know.
There are many ice cream makers....who cares what unilever does..
