Talk:Ben & Jerry's
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Something should be added about Ben and Jerry's former policy of the highest payed employie making no more than 10 times that of the lowest payed one. How about the label over the spsific type of milk they do not use?

[edit] Article title
Wouldn't it be more logical for this article to be located at Ben & Jerry's, since that is the brand name? --taestell 20:28, July 20, 2005 (UTC)
Why the specific mention of lifeworks, but no general mention of partnershops? Lifeworks may or may not be the newest, but there are quite a few. I think the original is in NYC... --69.201.143.180 05:27, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
Why isn't there any mention of Jamal and the police boycott's of Ben and Jerry's products? Also, it should mention Ben Cohen's view on the Iraq war, and themarines that are also boycotting the products.
Why isn't there a section about the dioxin controversy like here? They came out against dioxin and companies that had it present in their food, only to later realize that as a dairy product their products had over 200x the "safe amount".
It should also be mentioned that two characters in "Cityslickers" were based directly off of Ben and Jerry of Ben and Jerry's.
[edit] "Ben and Jerry's is famous for its leftist slant."
This is pure hyperbole. B&J is famous for its premium ice cream, not its "leftist slant." Cedlaod 23:23, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Summer Rose Hutter
I removed this sentence from the opening paragraph: "In their will they left Ben and Jerry's to Summer Rose Hutter who at the time was only 1 years old, so when she is eighteen she will inherit it."
Not only does thise sentence seem to imply that ben and jerry are dead but raises more questions, Who is Summer Rose Hutter? why did they leave thier busniess to here? when did this happen?
fell free to reinsert this piece of information of course adding some detail so it make sense. Kejoxen 22:34, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Stephen Colbert gets a flavor named after him

This should probably be added. I was going to add it, but the current paragraph says "musicians", and I don't feel like starting a new paragraph for it since I'm silly. BrainRotMenacer 03:01, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
