BEN & JERRY’S SAY ICE CREAM MADE FROM ‘HAPPY COWS’, LAWSUIT SAYS ‘NOPE’
In a complaint filed Oct. 31 in federal court in Burlington, Vermont, where Ben & Jerry’s was founded, environmental advocate James Ehlers accuses the company and Unilever of deceiving consumers.
He says many of the farms that produce the milk and cream are factory-style, mass production dairy operations. He says only some are part of the company’s “Caring Dairy” program.
