50% Discount at Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Shop

The last time we went to Ben & Jerry’s was free ice cream day. Oh it was wonderful, it was a nice warm day, not too hot because we did have to wait in line for the free ice cream after all. After all four of us got our free scoop (can you guess who took the longest to make their decision? Yes me, I’m so indecisive, the kids knew right away, who can turn down bananas and peanut butter combined, not them of course) we went and took a walk out on the pier across the street. Downtown Kirkland is BEAUTIFUL!

imageToday, you can get 10.00 worth of ice cream for only 5.00. Practically everyone on the planet knows and loves Ben & Jerry’s, for they’ve been scooping ice cream since 1978 and grateful ice cream lovers have been happily ingesting it for just as long.

My Ben and Jerry’s April Fools Joke became real

To save money for my family I have signed up for almost any and all newsletters you can think of. I hardly ever read them but the one from Ben and Jerry’s said Free Scoop of Ice Cream on April 21st

Also in this newsletter was an article about food from cloned animals. I’m not entirely sure I’m ok with it. what do you think? Here is a copy of the article:

Cyclone DairyApril Fools! Ben & Jerry’s launched a fictitious dairy company called "Cyclone Dairy" – selling milk made from 100% cloned cows in March 2009. CyClone Dairy isn’t real, but it could be! Did you know that in January 2008, the U.S Food and Drug Administration declared milk and meat from cloned animals safe for human consumption, allowing cloned food products to enter the U.S. food supply?

We believe you should have the right to choose which foods you eat – and not to eat cloned foods if you don’t want to. And that’s why Ben & Jerry’s believes we need a national clone tracking system, so people and companies can know where their food is coming from.
Please visit our friends at the Center for Food Safety to join our campaign to track clones and protect consumer choice.

Do you care how your food is made? I do when it comes to meat, but maybe I don’t because I would love to live in the Star Trek world and have all my food replicated and never have to wash dishes again. We ate grapples.
