That comes to more than twelve cows slaughtered every day in order to keep Ben and Jerry's ice cream business in operation.
Of course I'm sure Breyer's et al is worse but they aren't so hippified as their Chery Garcia image would have you think.
For me I don't "like" any retail chain. I go where the sales are for the most part, and try to not buy from large chains if I can help it. Unfortunately $ or lack thereof wins out more often than I would like.

Yes, and the meat youve eaten in the past month killed just as many cows.
If you are vegetarian, ignore this post
