Why is Ben and Jerry's ice cream expensive?

Not really. Blue Bell is superior and doesn't throw its money at every goddamned leftist cause out there

>>8314824
Yeah they just throw it in the garbage next to their infected product

Because its hippie shit made by wanna-be Vermont artisans. Or at least that's what they want you to believe. Happy cows and shit.
One of the company owners was recently arrested at a Bernie Sanders/Black Lives Matter rally in Washington DC. If that matters to you, that's the guy taking your money if you buy this.
Buy their ice cream is you buy-in to their politics. Don't you love it when food items are tied into a whole political ecosystem?

Eh. It's ice cream with real sugar and enough fat in it to 1) be dubbed 'premium' and 2) have decent texture. If you want a massively novel flavor, go for it. If you want better quality for the price, I'd skip it and get Talenti gelato.

The ones who are out of touch are the people in Vermont. Their encounter with black folks is limited to Dr. Heathcliff "Cliff" Huxtable on the Cosby Show.
See, black people are medical professionals and family men! We should march on their behalf! Such wholesome people!
I stand by my recommendation that Vermont should be 50% black before they have a valid opinion on the matter. Isolated people are so easily brainwashed, they have no experience whatsoever.

In Europe it's really expensive because most countries only have absolute garbage ice cream in supermarkets. Like the most basic flavors that taste like shit.

Ben and Jerrys has stuff like cookie dough, brownie etc which is normal to americans but pretty "exotic" to europeans

>>8314878

Almost every southern state has laws that businesses can deny service to whoever they want for whatever reason they want. These laws have historically been used to discriminate blacks.

Cinnamon Buns is worth it but almost all of their other flavors just have too much stuff in them, it's like eating candy or fudge/etc stripes with occasional ice cream in between. I started buying Haagen Dazs more because the flavors are basic.

That's not true. In Nazi Germany it was a race thing, but in most other cases in history, anti-Semitism was because of religious reasons.

But let's return to the topic: So you think it's perfectly fine if companies discriminate against people with a certain political opinion? And let's make it clear: We are not talking about some kind of extremism but of the support of a certain presidential candidate!
How about this: Imagine Google and Facebook would start a vegan campaign. If they find a pic or note in your account which proves that you're eating meet than you will receive a lifetime ban, which means no more Google store, no more Facebook, no more Youtube account etc.
Also it's no longer possible to google for non-vegan related things anymore.
Well, how does it feel if someone tells you how you have to think and what you have to like?

Their Tonight Dough is good. I also really like their exclusive Texas flavor

>>8316705
The topic at hand is ice-cream you silly cunt

>>8316705
It would be massively destructive for a company to do that. Companies have every right to refuse service to people, but the consequence is that someone else will pick up that business. If Facebook and Google were to do that, you better believe there will be a company willing and waiting to pick up the customers that they alienated.

The thing about expensive ice cream is that has a higher milk-fat and doesn't have a lot of air whipped into it as it's churned as >>8316823 said. The increase in volume that occurs from the chilled ice cream base to final product is called "overrun".

>>8317052
The thing about home-made ice cream is you really need a machine capable of getting the base frozen as fast as possible to keep large ice crystals from forming that destroy the creamy texture you are looking for. Home freezers really aren't up to the task, and for best results you need a compressor-based refrigerate maker and those can run several hundred dollars like this one:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004RDF0/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrbMvoZgppw

I thought about using some dry ice packed around my kitchen-aid mixer bowl to simulate the same effect. Otherwise, it's like American-Chinese food and Pizza in that the needed hardware is mostly inaccessible for the home-cook to achieve professional results.

>>8317039
A little ice cream conditioner added isn't going to negatively impact texture and taste and aids in curtailing ice crystal formation along the supply chain sort of like the use of diastatic malt powder in bread baking, but then they go overboard in lower tier brands and you end up with cold laffy taffy.

"Worth it" is a strange concept when it comes to a luxury food like ice cream. If you're poor you just buy whatever's cheap. If you're rich you don't even look at the price. But trying to calculate the value of a luxury food product is some real middle class bullshit. If it seems expensive to you then you're probably too poor to buy it - it's not a product for you. It's a product for someone with enough money to see it as an affordable indulgence.

If the profits of a certain product go to political causes, then whatever foodstuffs they sell have become political and buying those products means you support their cause (even if it's without your knowledge). This is true regardless of /pol/.

>Chik-Fil-A kind of did it.
Not really. The owner simply said he wasn't in favor of gay marriage. He didn't donate anything to any anti-gay organizations, yet lefties downright boycotted him.
