According to Ireland’s National Television and Radio Broadcaster, RTÉ, the ice cream brand Unilever’s Ben & Jerry’s ‘Euphoric Chunks & Swirls’, has called the war in Gaza ‘genocide’.
“Ben & Jerry’s believes in human rights and advocates for peace, and we join with those around the world who denounce the genocide in Gaza,” the board said in a statement viewed by Reuters. “We stand with all who raise their voices against genocide in Gaza – from petition-signers – to street marchers – to those risking arrest.”
The independent board who made this statement is now said to be escalating a bitter feud between the ice cream maker and its long-time London-based corporate parent, Unilever.
Is the above statement by the ‘independent board’ an effort to gain publicity for what is after all a poor quality product?
Ben & Jerry’s has said its year 2000 merger agreement with Unilever gave this independent board “primary responsibility” to pursue the company’s social mission.
Understandably, Unilever were quick to point out through their spokesperson that the comments reflect only the views of this “independent social mission board of Ben & Jerry’s”, and the latter do not speak for anyone other than themselves.
We went a little further than RTÉ, to investigate; taking a closer look at just 2 of Ben & Jerry’s products, using the reliable YUKA App, same which can be downloaded free to every smart phone in the country.
According to YUKA, Ben & Jerry’s product Chocolate Fudge Brownie, pictured above, is rated ‘Poor’ (only 5/100). Their product Cookie Vermont-ster, is also rated ‘Poor’, (only 8/100). Both products are high in sugar (27g) and contain the high risk additive ‘Carrageehan‘ (E407), which could increase the risk of breast cancer. It is also suspected of significantly disrupting the gut microbiota and causing chronic intestinal inflammation, which could contribute greatly to the development of other chronic diseases.
Based on the above ratings, we don’t believe that the Israeli people, will be very discountenanced by the lack of Ben & Jerry’s poorly rated and unhealthy ‘Euphoric Chunks & Swirls’.
As for Irish consumers; the HSE; the European Commission and EU Member States, please make note and take the necessary action to ban this additive from our food.
Truth is, the only ice cream that Thurles consumers should be buying from our local supermarkets is the Irish manufactured Madagascan Vanilla which is rated by YUKA as ‘Good‘ (54/100), and which is low in sugar (only 1g compared to Ben & Jerry’s 27g), and contains no risky additives. Same product can be purchased in ALDI, on Kickham Street, here in Thurles.
Remember, Yuka’s information and recommendations should not replace a healthy balanced diet. Always consult a GP for advice on the best diet for you, as an individual.
