Racial and income … inequities that we’re seeing are creating such a tension in society, it’s hard even to operate businesses. … So we’ve embraced these two topics and what I’m the most proud of is just to see how our teams, our partners, embrace it and scale and throw themselves into making a difference. That’s probably what makes me the most proud. It’s very hard to be angry and eat ice cream at the same time. It’s very tempting to stop and sign a petition, if there’s free ice cream.”

with a Peanut Butter Core) - Creamy Peanut-Butter Core Bounded by Bodacious Bands of Chocolate & Peanut Butter Ice Creams with Fudge Chips Milk Chocolate Ice Cream & White Fudge Cows Swirled with White Chocolate Ice Cream & Dark Fudge CowsAre there instances where you as a CEO, or as a company, have said, “Yeah, we care about that issue, but we can’t go there. That’s too hot, that’s too controversial”? There are issues that come up that are important — legitimate issues — but we haven’t built an internal program. So we’ll start that, and then join in. But controversy is not something that scares us. Maybe it should, but it doesn’t. We were the only corporation to support Occupy Wall Street at Zuccotti Park, which was a surprise to them, as well. And you know, nothing bad really happened to our business as a result of that.

Baskin-Robbins’ 17th flavor is Karamel Sutra. It’s an ice cream with caramel-dipped core and sprinkles of chocolate chips. Ben’s plans to introduce a line of sunflower-based ice creams in 2020. Ben And Jerry’s Karamel Sutra Review Klein: On the inequity/inequality front, maybe two questions. What is the connection you’re seeing between business success and inequality? What is that negative relationship you are seeing? And how might you take action in this space?Solheim: There are many issues where we’ve had to say we can’t go there, not necessarily because they’re too hot or too controversial, more because we don’t judge that we have a real ability to make an impact, or that we are prepared. You know, we believe you’ve got to walk the walk — not just talk. So we want to align our internal programs with the external campaigning. Ben and Jerry’s Karmel Sutra ice cream is one of the most popular flavors from the company. It is a mixture of chocolate and caramel ice creams with a fudge swirl. It is rich and creamy, and the flavors are well balanced. The ice cream is also very smooth and has a good mouthfeel. Overall, this is a delicious ice cream and I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys caramel and chocolate together. Yes, Ben and Jerry’s Phish Food is gluten-free. The ice cream is made with milk, cream, sugar, and eggs, and the fish-shaped fudge pieces are made with cocoa, sugar, and milk. Solheim: The amazing thing is that selling ice cream and running campaigns [use] the same set of skills. You want to get people’s attention, you need social media, you need events. And one great thing that we have, of course, is ice cream. It’s very hard to be angry and eat ice cream at the same time. It’s very tempting to stop and sign a petition, if there’s free ice cream. So ice cream plays a really important role in how we connect with our fans. Solheim: Correct. We show what ice cream looks like if it’s just two degrees warmer. It’s a bit of a mess.

Solheim: That’s typically the first question you get when you’re getting involved in structural racism and some of these other deep-rooted social issues — and what’s in it for a business. If you actually look at the correlation of success, of economic success and inequality, it is highly correlated. We have an inherent value and belief that a society where everybody is treated justly and equally is just a better community to be in. It maps out very nicely, as well, in terms of economic opportunity and success. Klein: You had a career in ice cream at Unilever before coming on five years ago as CEO of Ben & Jerry’s. How was the transition from the larger entity of Unilever to this interestingly different mission-driven company?

Solheim: Yes. That’s why they and the then-sitting board together agreed to set up an independent board of directors that acts basically like our benefit corporation director. They are responsible for the social mission, for the integrity of the Ben & Jerry’s brand, our policies. They even get involved in basic things like wage-setting in the factories, where we have a livable wage policy that is overseen by the board of directors. And the directors are self-selecting. Unilever appoints just two seats out of 11 board members.
