With such imbeciles, everything's about RACE!!!

And they are so blinded by their hate that they call other people, (and, even ice cream) "racist"!

The company should respond by only selling vanilla ice cream from now on.

Yes, let’s help them all out and rename their ice cream. I suggest “Affirmative Action” a lovely mix of chocolate, coffee, and almond with enough vanilla to placate vanilla lovers.

And unfortunately, the unredeemed spend their time in trying to get more attention and nourish their egos, and make trouble because it makes headlines and allows them to feel important at last, instead of using it to help others.

What if we could turn all these idle hands into helping hands.

Someone once said about unrequited love: If only desperation were attractive.

Well, if only anonymous, behind-the-scenes work were considered cool.

If they mix the chocolate and vanilla, and throw in a little mocha they could call it Mudslide.

No one could find anything racist in that.

The streets in poor minority shantytowns are often unpaved and turn to mud when it rains. “Mudslide” is a derogatory, racist term because it demeans and belittles poor people who campnnot afford paved streets. Also, mud is dark brown in color, so it is obvious that you are mocking our brown skinned brothers and sister. Shame on you, you horrible racist, you!

I don’t want to get too much off topic here, but ...

Wasn’t there once a flavor trio like Neapolitan but consisting of equal layers of vanilla, coffee, and orange sherbet?

It may have been called a “Country Club.”

Can some FRiendly ice cream aficionado enlighten me on this point?

They should change their company NAME, “Blue Bell” sounds too much like a painful Teenage experience I had when my Girlfriend wouldn’t put out after leading me down the Garden Path.

Guess you aren't a fan of their "Frozen Nuts" ice cream, either?

Honey, try metropolitan ice cream, which has 3 colors, or rainbow sherbet, which has a lot of them.

Well, like Clinton said, you better put some Ice on that. LOL

I’m thinking DeNiro’s Jake LaMotta in Raging Bull.

“I doubt if the kid knew anything about the Mason-Dixon line.”

Of course he didn’t; they don’t teach actual history in schools.

So now chocolate ice cream is “racist”.

They are going to have a problem with this with most women.

Jumped the shark?

><

They’ve jumped the shark so many times that hopefully people are waking up and getting sicker and sicker of it.

It’s all backfiring on them and they don’t realize it yet, if they ever will.

Please see my tagline..

That’s what I always think about when I’m eating: how my food can be interpreted as racist.
