Why can’t I find Ben & Jerry’s fro-yo any more?

Who is actually buying the non-dairy then? I know that DCUM skews more intelligent and higher income, and it sounds like DCUM is of the camp to eat ice cream but less.

Is it very uniformed people getting the non-dairy, or is it a true niche of health compromised people buying enough that stores want to stock it? Or is it a lot of trendy people buying because they think it is healthier?

DCUM also skews very white. In addition to vegans, there are huge numbers of people— including children — who are lactose intolerant. It’s hardly a “niche” concern. And it’s also not “trendy”. “They think it’s healthier because for them it IS healthier.

I guess you never noticed that there are huge cultural traditions that are pretty much dairy free.

I cannot find it anywhere in Connecticut, so I just stopped buying Ben & Jerrys. My favorite is Cherry Garcia. The price keeps going up and the options are getting fewer & fewer. They seem to think that half the world are vegans ??? I know a lot more vegetarians (who eat eggs & dairy) than vegans.

I've been looking but haven't seen it for awhile. I'm fond of the Phish Food yogurt.

I just had a Siggis mixed berry yogurt with blueberries for dessert and it was not the same lol.

Fro yo is woke. It’s been cancelled under the DEI decree.

Not true for Ben and Jerry’s.
