Ben & Jerry’s Co‑Founder Alleges Unilever Blocked “Flavor for Palestine”

Ben Cohen, co‑founder of Ben & Jerry’s, claims that parent company Unilever prevented the ice‑cream maker from creating a special flavor aimed at showing solidarity with Palestinians. On his social platform post, he announced that despite efforts within the company to launch a “flavor for Palestine,” Unilever (via its ice‑cream division Magnum) “stopped” the initiative. Cohen said he plans to move ahead with his own watermelon‑flavored ice cream — watermelon being symbolic of Palestinian solidarity due to its flag‑matching colors. He asked the public for help naming the flavor, suggesting packaging ideas and ingredients. He stressed that Palestinians are still living under difficult conditions after years of conflict and that the flavor is his effort to spotlight the need for dignity, safety and equal rights. Unilever has yet to publicly respond to his claims. #BenAndJerrys #FlavorForPalestine #UnileverControversy #IceCreamActivism #SlimScan #GrowthStocks #CANSLIM
