i recently learned from my friends at the humane society of the united states (hsus) that ben & jerry’s is misleading the public about its opposition to factory farms. despite the company’s claims about social responsibility, it buys millions of eggs each year from birds confined in battery cages. these animals can barely move for their entire lives; it truly is unimagineable how much suffering they endure.
ben & jerry’s takes out ads claiming it opposes factory farms, yet it supports one of the most notorious factory farming practices. please call ben & jerry’s and ask that it stop using battery cage eggs in its ice cream: 802-846-1500.
