Most people don’t follow the ins and outs of corporate ownership of brand names. So they just assume Ben and Jerry still are in charge of that ice cream company.

Oh, sheesh...we had a long thread here a couple weeks ago and I saw that people posting thought Ben and Jerry were no longer affiliated with the B & J brand ice cream company.

I finally researched to substantiate my knowledge that these two twerps were still strongly connected with B & J....and I then posted the facts on that thread.

B & J Ice Cream is now an owned subsidiary of Unilever.....and it has a separate B & J board ON WHICH SIT BOTH COHEN AND GREENBERG. They still are stockholders...and they still act as advertising front-men when called on.

They still have plenty of B & J company authority under their own part of the Unilever umbrella of subsidiaries.

Unilever was completely aware of the ideological views of Cohn and Greenfield, and stated at the time of the sale, that it (Unilever) was granting both of them plenty of leeway to continue with their social objectives

These two enemies of the Republic were not going to leave their little money-making company totally behind them, no way. Not if it still could be used.

Therefore, in view of the facts, I will continue to have my boycott continuing full throttle against these two still very active subversives.
