Too bad the CEO that actually wanted to keep the company this way was removed by Unilever

The Aldi version is only out during the summer, I want it year round 😔

Aren’t they owned by Unilever?

[-] DarkSirrush@lemmy.ca 29 points 2 months ago

Unilever just had the CEO removed for being too much of an activist, and 'aligning with the original owner's views too strongly'.

Means I recently bought my last pint of this icecream, because it no longer is a company I can justify exempting from the US boycott (since, in Canada it is produced in Canadian plants, using Canadian dairy products, and was actively going against the current US leadership).

They are. And their European stock is also manufactured in the Netherlands.

Unilever is British, no? But sure even that would not be European. (I yearn for the UK to come back)

We're still European, just not in the EU.

[-] JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl 7 points 2 months ago

Still best to not support shitty companies, even if they are European. #1 example: nestle

Fuck nestle

A quick search indicated that it is.

[-] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

It is also a shit company, that should be boycott if there are smaller, independent, local alternatives.
