Come on, man. Pick something with basic, natural ingredients. You're just as likely to find vegetable oil in Blue Bell, along with the usual HFCS.
I don't get the love for it.

Today is primitive people who got conquered by a more advanced people day.

Ben & Jerry sold their business a few years back.
Yes. Quite a few years back (2000), which begs the question, is Unilever letting Ben and Jerry have so much input into where they sell their product, or are they paying Ben and Jerry to run cover for their decisions?

I think they’re still the managers and make day to day decisions while Unilever mostly leaves them alone. It’s not like they’d have to worry about these two morons not brainwashing their employees with Woke agenda.

Found a bit more on wikipedia (I know...take it for what it's worth)...
On July 19, 2021, it was announced that Ben & Jerry's plans to end sales in "Occupied Palestinian Territory", within which Israeli settlements are considered illegal under international law.[27] Due to the refusal of Ben & Jerry's Israel, the local franchisee since 1987, to comply with this policy, the company statement said it did not plan to renew the franchise in 2022. It has been suggested that the decision, while not technically a boycott given the lack of legal recognition of the Palestinian territories as a formal part of Israel under Israeli law, may run foul of anti-boycott laws in a number of US states.[28] The statement, issued by Unilever, was criticized by Ben & Jerry's Independent Board of Directors, which had not wanted to comment on the continuation of sales in other parts of Israel, as this required board approval.
