Ice cream and cookies 20 JAN 09

A 1/2 gallon container of Breyer's Ice Cream is 48 oz. (What? That's not correct. A half-gallon is 64 oz.) How did this happen? Two quarts became 1 3/4 quarts. Unilver made it happen. The people in charge of Unilever make a lot millions and they want more. Their business model is to charge their customers more and give them less. They think their customers are stupid and will pay whatever they charge. They also conspire with other ice cream companies,food distributors and politicians to "fix" prices.

Q. Can we do anything? A. Yes! We can boycott Breyer's. Breyer's is owned by Unilever. We can stop buying Breyer's ice cream, Dove Soap, Hellman's Mayonnaise, Lipton Tea and all the products owned by Unilever. We can review this boycott in July if Breyer's changes size and price.
According to PCA, a unit size of Breyer's should be 1/2 gallon and priced between $2.oo to 2.25. PCA reports that the price of 1/2 gallon ice cream may go $7.99 by the end of 2009.
(Ice cream also makes you fat and you are probably overweight now.)
Scientific fact: Nobody ever died from not eating ice cream, mayonnaise, Vaseline, soap or any of Unilever's products.

Chips Ahoy (chocolate chip cookies) now come in a 14 oz. package. Most cookies came in 16 oz. (one pound) units and cost $1.50-$1.99. Now they cost $2.99 to $3.50. A plan is raise the price to $4.99 by the end of 2009. Nabisco makes Chips Ahoy. Why did Nabisco raise the price and shrink the size? A. They did for the same reason as Unilever. They are very greedy people.


What can we do? Boycott Nabisco. Stop buying Chips-Ahoy, Ritz Crackers, Oreo Cookies and all the junk food they make. We will continue the boycott until Nabisco restores the package size to 16 oz. and reduces the price to no more than $2.00.

Medical authorities swear that you can survive if you stop eating Chips-Ahoy and junk food. You will also lose weight, feel better and even smell better.
And .... Did you ever read the ingredients on Nabisco's packages? Yucht!
Bottom line: Boycott Breyer's ice cream + everything Unilever makes.
Bottom line: Boycott Chips-Ahoy and everything Nabisco/Kraft makes.
