The Ben & Jerry’s ice cream giant announced Monday that it will no longer distribute its products in the “Occupied Palestinian Territory,” though the flavors will remain available in Israel.

“We believe it is inconsistent with our values for Ben & Jerry’s ice cream to be sold in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT). We also hear and recognize the concerns shared with us by our fans and trusted partners,” the company said in a statement.

  1. Time for all kosher supermarket to pull their Ben and Jerry’s! Now! And the ou to stop giving any certifications.. and if this company backtracks too late, the cat is out of the bag!!

  2. Perhaps we should not o lay stop buying the product. We should have a worldwide protest against the company Let’s reach as many people as possible to stop buying it. There should be a bombardment of emails sent to their headquarters.

  3. Nothing worse for a Jew than a Jew hating Jew.
    Remove their inferior products from the back shelves, remove their certification (do you really trust it???) and write them your opinions on their site.
    Cease and desist this shameless melted gook of a company.

  4. Great to know where Ben & Jerry’s stands and soon you will know where many many people (Jews and non-Jews alike) stand against this bigotry and stupidity. This company is shameful and full of evil with no real understanding of BDS and anti-semitic issues. A true embarrassment to the business world as well as morals, ethics and values. Hateful!

  5. It’s a great opportunity to show Hashem your love for Him and for Israel. Don’t buy or eat Ben & Jerry’s. Encourage your supermarkets to drop the product, too.
