JustTriDave - 2009-09-03 12:41 PM Ben & Jerrys Press release

BURLINGTON, Vt.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ben & Jerry’s, known for its euphoric ice cream flavors and dedication to social justice, celebrates the beginning of the freedom to marry for gay and lesbian couples in Vermont with the symbolic renaming of its well-known ice cream flavor “Chubby Hubby” to “Hubby Hubby.” In partnership with Freedom to Marry, Ben & Jerry’s aims to raise awareness of the importance of marriage equality and, to show its support, will serve “Hubby Hubby” sundaes in Vermont Scoop Shops throughout the month of September.

Not a new flavor just renaming Chubby Hubby

Ummm this is inaccurate. I was a long-time Chubby Hubby consumer. Chubby Hubby had bananas, chunk chocolate and walnuts. Yuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmm. This Hubby Hubby is peanut butter cookie dough (blech!) and other stuff.

 



Mmm... I never really liked Chubby Hubby but Hubby Hubby sounds de-lish.  I may have to go pick up a pint (or 2).  Will it be distributed nationwide?

shieldsp1 - 2009-09-03 9:13 AM Easy enough...looking for an excuse to stop eating ice cream.  I will never eat another bite of B&J.


Eh, I don't think you need an excuse.  After all, this past Saturday, your log says that you biked for 5 hours, ran for 1, swam for 15 minutes, did 1024 situps, played ping-pong for an hour and a half, tennis for an hour and a half, disc golf for an hour and a half, and golf for two hours.  I mean, that is 13.5 hours in one day!  Eat all the ice cream you want!!


Sweet, I did not know others would look at my log.  I turned 24 last week and to celebrate I participated in an event called 24hrs of Awesome...24 different events that help to define who I am, over 24 hours without a break.  So there were actually quite a few more activities (not all of them were athletic endevors) that are not on Saturday's log.  But no ice cream, finished with a 24oz beer!


When you turn 34 I can only hope that what defines you is not disc golf and hating others for their sexual orientation.

I think you're referring to Chunky Monkey, but its been awhile since I've had B&J's so perhaps they renamed it recently?  I think my mom left a container of Chunky Monkey in the freezer in the past year.

I agree.

That said ... he's entitled to express his opinion on the matter. And he's probably just protesting the taking of our wimmins.

I personally love Ben and Jerrys. All the girls used to drink their wine coolers and get all drunk and stuff.

I never said I hated anyone BT'ers...but you are free to your opinions so if me not wanting to support B&J translates into me hating homosexuals then that is what you feel.  And no need to bring innocent bystandards such as Disc Golf into it

Ahhhhhh yes, you are correct. Chubby Hubby/Chunky Monkey - they are the same in my mind. I used to have a chubby hubby and we both loved the Chunky Monkey.

Thanks for the correction.

He is very entitled to his opinion.  It is why I didn't quantify either of his remarks ("meat popsicle") with a comment.  But they did give me that angry feeling in the pit of my stomach when I think someone hates me enough to stop eating ice cream because the company supports me in my pursuit of happiness.  Why would someone hate me, who never even met me.  

Then I remember that he has a right to speak his mind, and I would never take that away from him.  Otherwise America COJ would become boring and no one would want to come.  I will give a word of warning...just make sure that your posts remain civil so that you can remain a memeber of BT.  This is a place where many walks of life come and it is perfectly ok to state your opinions, but abuse is not tolerated and the moderators take it very seriously.   

Have a great day!

Cool, an excuse to go to Ben and Jerry's more often.

My wife and I are pretty secure in our marriage, and in our church. so a couple of guys tying the knot doesn't bother us. Our marriage, and our faith, will not be harmed at all. I wish the government would allow churches to decide, rather than butting in and telling my pastor what he can't do, who he's not allowed to conduct marriage ceremonies for.  I find it all big brother anti-freedom, anti-liberty, anti-religious tolerance. If your religion doesn't allow it, then don't come to my religion where we do. Isn't that America? It's not like it's polygamy: it's two grown adults making a commitment before God, friends, and family.

I'm from North Carolina. I'm pretty conservative. I want the government out of my hair. Being against gay marriage violates these principles.
