Nice work dude. I love the Ben and Jerry’s fair trade coffee ice cream - hopefully they’ll listen to you about the sugar.

Here’s the email I sent:

Hey Ben and Jerry –

I love your ice cream — even more now, since you’ve gone fair trade for your choco and vanilla flavors, as well as your coffee ice creams :)

I wanted to ask though — I noticed that your UK ice creams also use fair trade sugar. I’d love to know that my ice cream’s got fair trade sugar in addition to the vanilla, cocoa, and coffee. After all, sugar’s a big ingredient for ice cream!

Are there plans to use fair trade sugar in your ice creams? Hope to hear from you about this — Thanks :)
